Throwing Mountains
Welcome to the Throwing Mountains (formerly Empowered Manhood) podcast, where men rediscover courageous leadership. You'll be strengthened by the stories of God working in the lives of ordinary men today -- men who've become leaders in their spheres of influence by relying on God and following Jesus. You'll also gain a sharp focus on the biblical idea of masculine leadership which will help orient your own life as a man.

Weekly Strength 1.8: God in the Day-to-Day -- Patience
We love stories where someone's patience pays off. Like the story of Kurt Warner. He stocked shelves, played in the Arena Football League and in Europe, and sat the bench in the NFL before getting his chance to start. Then, of course, he made the most of it.
But for every Kurt Warner, there are thousands of guys who are just as talented, train just as hard, and never make it to the big leagues.
And then there’s you and me. We’re not working for a chance to operate on a big stage.
What's our payoff for being patient?
This week’s Bible passage: Galatians 6:7-10
