Step In or Miss Out: Wisdom’s Call to Every Man

05/12/25 • 19 min

In this episode of Men After God, Kenny Sexton explores Proverbs 9:1–6, where wisdom prepares a feast and calls out to the simple: “Come, eat of my bread and drink of the wine I have mixed.” But not everyone responds.

This isn’t just a poetic image — it’s a wake-up call for men of God. The invitation is clear: step into wisdom, or miss out on the life God has for you. Dustin and Luke unpack what it means to accept wisdom’s invitation, leave behind immaturity, and become men who walk in spiritual strength and understanding.

🧠 You’ll Learn:

Why Proverbs 9 is a direct challenge to passive manhood
What it means to accept God’s invitation to grow in wisdom
How spiritual immaturity holds you back in family, faith, and leadership
The cost of ignoring wisdom’s call
How to start walking with wisdom — today

📖 “Leave your simple ways, and live, and walk in the way of insight.” — Proverbs 9:6

💥 The invitation is open. Step in, or miss out.

Why Strong Men Still Break: Embracing God's Timing in Hard Seasons

In this raw and reflective episode of Men After God, Dustin Alley and Luke Sorensen dive deep into the reality that sometimes, God has to break us before He can rebuild us. Life comes in seasons — some marked by growth, others by pruning — but all are used by God to shape us into the men He’s called us to be.

Drawing from Ecclesiastes 3 and personal experience, Dustin and Luke explore what it means to walk through a season of tearing down. They discuss how to stay faithful during uncertainty, how to embrace spiritual reconstruction, and why effectiveness in your walk with God matters more than outward efficiency.

This episode is for every man who’s ever asked, “Why is this happening?” and who wants to trust God’s process even when it hurts.

🧠 Key Takeaways
✔️ Growth often begins with surrender
✔️ Some things must be torn down for God to rebuild
✔️ Trusting God's timing leads to deeper healing
✔️ Effectiveness > Efficiency in spiritual life
✔️ You’re not stuck—you’re being shaped

📖 “There is a time to break down, and a time to build up...” — Ecclesiastes 3:3
