In this episode of the Men After God podcast, host Luke Sorensen tackles one of the toughest aspects of biblical manhood: making hard decisions as a spiritual leader in the family. Luke introduces the D.A.R.E. framework — Discern the voice of God, Align with the Word, Run it through Wise Counsel, and Execute with Courage — a powerful tool for men who want to lead with conviction and clarity.
Through practical insights and biblical wisdom, Luke emphasizes the importance of seeking God’s guidance, aligning every decision with Scripture, and surrounding yourself with godly counsel. He also addresses the tension between pleasing God versus pleasing people, urging listeners to root their leadership in a personal relationship with the Lord.
Whether you’re facing a difficult choice in your home, ministry, or personal life, this episode will equip you to lead with faith, wisdom, and courage.
