Locker Room

Two Words: Life Change Jesus didn’t just come to forgive and love us, but to free us, unburden and heal us. This week Scott sits down with Edgar Saborit to hear how deciding to follow Jesus has changed his life for the better. I will give you a new heart and put a new spirit in you; I will remove from you your heart of stone and give you a heart of flesh. - Ezekiel 36:26(NIV) LOCKER ROOM DISCUSSION GUIDE S10E4: Have you had an opportunity to travel outside of the country? If so, what’s been your favorite place to visit? If not, where would you like to go?  What’s something in your life that’s changed over the past year? How do you typically respond to change (barber, job, moving, vehicles, etc.)? What factors have influenced the way you approach change? The phrase “Follow Me” appears over 20 times throughout the gospel accounts in the New Testament. What was the catalyst for you to begin following Jesus? How has following Jesus changed the relational dynamics within your sphere of influence (significan

Two Words: Fine Print This week we’re talking about the fine print of the Christian life. If we’re not careful we can talk about faith in a way that sounds easy or irresistible—rainbows and unicorns—as if everything is just great all the time. It’s not true. The Bible doesn’t promise any of this. This week’s episode is titled fine print; but not because God is hiding something from us or trying to speed past and hide all the side effects of being a Christ-follower. He doesn’t do that. The invitation that Jesus invites us into is incredible, but that doesn’t mean it doesn’t come with hard things. This season of Locker Room we're taking each week to talk about two words. Two words to drive our content and our discussion with different guests. If you’re starting a Locker Room Group or simply having conversations with other men--your sons, your friends, or coworkers--our hope is to create some critical discussions about things that matter.

"You're invited!" When Jesus says you’re invited...he means it. He knows everything about us and yet he still pursues us. What is Jesus inviting us into? How do we respond? Join us this week as we sit down with Jon Weece to talk about the greatest invitation we've been given. We'll dive into the steps to accept Jesus' invitation and celebrate how he redeems our stories to help reach others. This season of Locker Room we're taking each week to talk about two words.

LOCKER ROOM DISCUSSION GUIDE, S1E2 - “You’re Invited” Did your family members or friends give you a nickname? If so, what is it and how did you earn it?  What’s the most recent event you’ve been invited to (ball game, concert, wedding, etc.)? What resonated with you about the exper

"What comes into our minds when we think about God is the most important thing about us."--A. W. Tozer If you were asked to describe Jesus in two words, what would it be?  It’s a great question, right? It’s very telling of what we know or understand about who He is. We're kicking off this season of Locker Room by taking each week to talk about 2 Words. Each week we’ll have two words that drive our content and drive our discussion with different guests. In this episode, we'll focus in on two words to describe Jesus: Warrior and King. If you’re starting a Locker Room Group or simply having conversations with other men--your sons, your friends, or coworkers--our hope is to create some critical discussions about things that matter.  LOCKER ROOM DISCUSSION GUIDE, S10E1: Warrior King If your family or your friends were to introduce you to someone new, what two words would they use to describe you?  Who first introduced you to Jesus?

One of the challenges for us as men, especially when we assume the role of provider, protector, and any vocational callings, is knowing when it is time to leave one thing and move on to the next thing in our lives. In this episode Scott Hatfield returns to the podcast to reflect on these moments of change and how to discern best what's next. 1. How do you know when it’s time to move on? To leave one thing and move to the next thing? How have you filtered those questions at different points in your life? 2. Hatfield found himself in a conversation that turned into an interview. Have you ever been in a situation or conversation that was pivotal in your work and/or calling? 3. We all need mentors; people who are ahead of us on the journey and pour their experience into us. Who is that for you? If you don’t have a mentor, who might you ask to be that person for you? 4. Whose work, life, or ministry do you look up to or admire from afar? Pray and ask God for the opportunity to grab some time with that person. Can
