There are many nuggets and gems hidden in the hour together (including a Hallmark...2022-12-231h 02

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 110: Taking a Team on MissionC.O.D.E. Men go on mission for God! In fact, we should be learning how to live mission minded every single day. Sometimes, we actually take a team and go on a mission for the kingdom of God, and we just returned from what has been agreed by the team, to be the best mission trip we have done together. We are by no means experts, but we thought it would be helpful to have a conversation about what made this work so well. And to top it all off, we are making C.O.D.E...2022-07-2149 min

New Hampshire JournalKathy Barnette: Election Integrity Means Taking on 'Partisan Journalism' From Fox NewsIn a no-holds-barred interview, conservative activist and former U.S. Senate candidate Kathy Barnette says "The Swamp" isn't just Democrats, and she calls out her fellow Republicans over their treatment of her during the primary. "If we want to talk about election integrity, we have to go beyond just voter IDs and getting rid of no-excuse mail-in ballots. We also have to take a very strong look at partisan journalism," Barnett said. "In the last five days, we had a number of those who are allegedly conservative pulling out the long knives."She also tells DV...2022-06-0325 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 95: Becoming Good and Godly MenIs it possible to be both a manly man and a godly man at the same time? Perhaps a better question is, is it possible to truly be either, without being both? In this episode Mike "Overtrek" Barnette explores some biblical foundation for the case that real men, good men, can be and should be both godly and manly and the homes, the churches, and the world are in desperate need for more of them. A special thank you to our friend Bruce Frye for the theme song, "Heart of a Champion." You can find more of B...2022-04-0740 min

Crew discuss the joys, challenges, and lessons learned from the recent backpacking trip to Grayson Highlands State Park and the Mount Rogers Wilderness Area in Virginia.

Additional Resources: The Mystery of Godliness: Barnette, Pastor Mike, Cantrell, Associate Pastor Corey, Russell, Charlie, V...2021-11-0436 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 72: Calm in the Chaos (PT 3) Axis and Allies!In this third and final entry (for now) on the studies in the gospel of Mark, Easy Target and Overtrek discuss the life, ministry, and manner of Jesus through Mark chapters 3 and 4. Jesus had friends and companions whom he chose to share life with, but he also had a steady stream of opposition. We learn how Jesus brings balance to personal soul care while at the same time teaching his disciples and ministering to the multitudes. The discussion concludes with the amazing capacity of Jesus to remain calm in the chaos of a great storm on the sea, and of...2021-10-2840 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 68: A C.O.D.E. View of MoviesThe movie industry is a multi-billion dollar business that, let's be honest, most of us are pretty highly invested in. We love good movies! Why is that? Are we just wasting our time or is there some redeeming value in popping some corn and gathering in the living room for a couple of hours? In this episode the Crew explores the impact of the movie medium, why we love movies, and some scriptural principles to guide our viewing. A special thank you to our friend Bruce Frye for the theme song, "Heart of a Champion." You can find...2021-09-3037 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 67 : Battle Ready (PT 5): Spiritual Warfare AlliesIn part 5, the crew concludes the discussion of spiritual warfare by exploring the need for allies in our fight. The questions that arise, then, are how does a genuine ally look, why is it so important to have them, and why is it so hard for men to have allies? To sum it all up, you can only have real allies through real fellowship, which is two guys in the same boat...or ship...you decide! A special thank you to our friend Bruce Frye for the theme song, "Heart of a Champion." You can find more o...2021-09-2340 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 66: Battle Ready (PT 4): Spiritual Warfare ArmamentsIn part 4 the crew wraps up the discussion on "the weapons of our warfare" by looking at the example of Jesus in Mark 1. While Ephesians 6 may be the go-to scripture for spiritual armor, Jesus demonstrates the use of these weapons in real world application. There are five specific armaments he uses in the spiritual battles represented there: 1) Obedience to the Father's Will 2) The Word of God - daily renewal in the truth 3) Humility - being secure in our identity in God 4) Compassion - a heart willing to engage on behalf of ot...2021-09-1631 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 65: Battle Ready (PT 3): Spiritual Warfare ArmamentsIn this third of a series on Spiritual Warfare the C.O.D.E. Crew introduces the discussion on "the weapons of our warfare" (2 Corinthians 10:4) with a beginning look at the characteristics and applications of these spiritual armaments. Before we grab a sword and start swinging it around recklessly we should want to know its purpose and the right way to use it. “War must be, while we defend our lives against a destroyer who would devour all; but I do not love the bright sword for its sharpness, nor the arrow for its swiftness, nor the warr...2021-09-0928 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 64: Battle Ready (PT 2) - Spiritual Warfare AuthorityIn this second episode of the series on Spiritual Warfare, the Crew discusses the vital role of Kingdom Authority, the power and liberty granted by Jesus to his followers to wage war against the enemy to secure, not only our own heart, but the hearts of others. They discuss the importance of our daily walk with Christ which is the condition for accessing and using the authority. Also, how the authority is exercised in the war; i.e. for healing, edification, liberty, and combat. A special thank you to our friend Bruce Frye for the theme song, "Hea...2021-09-0244 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 63: Battle Ready (PT 1): Spiritual Warfare Awareness and The AdversarySpiritual warfare is a subject that is often neglected in many Christian circles, but it is a subject that we keep getting brought back to. Struggles of the soul are very real and very hard. Our churches are full of people who know the struggles with depression, anxiety, addiction, discouragement, shame, and the list goes on. These internal fights manifest themselves in external ways; we have relationship troubles, we may be living in a lie to cover up our struggles, and we become addicted to a substance or another form of relief. It’s real, and we want to know m...2021-08-2633 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 61: The Journey of Fatherhood (PT 3)In the conclusion of the discussion on fatherhood, the Crew (minus one) and guest Pastor Chris Cantrell, discuss the meaning behind the most famous parenting passage of all, Proverbs 22:6, "Train up a child in the way he should go..." and discuss "A Formula for Fatherhood Success: 6 Real Things to Train Your Child Up in…" 1. Priority – Make godly character the highest goal 2. Perspective – It isn’t about the wins but the will of God 3. Prudence – Learn situational awareness – discernment in life choices 4. Pathway – Travel the high road. 5. Presence – Practice, model, and teach your c...2021-08-1951 min

Contained within these verses is a great spiritual truth that has become lost to the modern church in America. How does the wild, desolate, sterile place become a source of gladness and blossoming of life? It i...2021-08-1557 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 60: The Journey of Fatherhood (PT 2)In part two of a three part series, the Crew, along with Pastor Chris Cantrell, discuss the common challenges all fathers face and the unique challenges of fathers raising children in this modern culture.

Welcomed into the Undisclosed Location is our own Easy Target's dad, Chris Cantrell, father of three adult children and five grandchildren, and a long time pastor who brings a balancing experience to this journey into fatherhood. In part one the men reflect back on what they remember about their own fathers while growing up and what they all hope their own children will remember about them as dads. Drawing down on some key qualities every good (but not perfect) dad should possess: Ge...2021-07-2927 min

Jorge's Versa)Overtrek and the Teton group are back from Wyoming and back in the studio of the undisclosed location to talk about their trip. The 2021 C.O.D.E. Super Adventure is in the books! Join the Crew as we look back and process a little of the experience with Easy Target and Rollin Napoleon taking the interviewer roles. What was it like to summit the 12,804 ft. Middle Teton mountain? What can living in the backcountry teach you about living in the Kingdom of God? And what is a "Jorge's Versa" anyway? And what happened to Rollin Napoleon during sign offs?2021-07-2259 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 57: Walking the Line Between Tradition and LibertyThis week, in the absence of Overtrek (who is away summitting mountains and immersed in back country living), the millennials take over the Undisclosed Location, Easy Target and Rollin' Napoleon discuss the challenge of finding the balance between honoring the traditions of the past, while finding the leading of Jesus for today. Is there a way to make different choices than those who have come before, and, if so, can you still properly honor the faithfulness of the lives of the saints of yesterday?2021-07-1547 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 56: Men in the Shallows (PT 2)“A man should hear a little music, read a little poetry, and see a fine picture every day of his life, in order that worldly cares may not obliterate the sense of the beautiful which God has implanted in the human soul.” – Johann Wolfgang von Goethe In this concluding episode on the topic of living a deeper life, the Crew shares some insights into how men can pursue deeper living and move out of the shallows.

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 55: Men in the Shallows (PT 1)As boys we lived deeply from the heart. We drew pictures, chased lightening bugs, climbed trees, but something has happened to that wild and passionate heart in most men. Is there a way to get it back? It seems most men, including in the church, are ignorant of, or simply avoid living, a deep life. It is evident in their relationships, their life goals, and entertainment choices; all of it seems pretty shallow. And it is costing us. What is a deeper life? How do we live there as men?

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 54: Nourishing the Soul (Simple Practices to Stay Strong)The C.O.D.E. Crew shares, in round table fashion, some of the daily practices that have helped keep the soul nourished over the last couple of months. Given the heavy times we all live in and the barrage of negativity that seems to relentlessly come our way, we are going to need to practice soul care to stay strong. Given four qualifiers: 1) Simple practices that are sustainable. 2) Solitude practices that bring us out of the distractions to a focus on God. 3) Strengthening practices, that is, things which actually make the soul st...2021-06-2439 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 53: Living the Dream with Graham Glover (PT 2)In the second half of the interview with Graham Glover the Crew dives a little deeper into politics, leaders who inspire, and even a Tebow sighting (or hearing)!

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 52: Living the Dream with Graham Glover (PT 1)In this first of a two part series the C.O.D.E. Crew welcomes Graham Glover to the Undisclosed Location for a discussion on what it takes to live out the dream of your heart and find the path to true success by the standard of God's word.

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 51: The Three Things Killing the Church in America - Part 4, Christian NationalismIn this episode, the conclusion of the series, the Crew tackles the wacky world of Christian Nationalism. How is it defined? Can Christians be patriotic without being nationalists? What are the theological issues with this ideology? Finally, what is the proper Christian response to this movement? 2021-06-0347 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 50: The Three Things Killing the Church in America: Part 3 - Denominational Traditionalism"We've never done it that way." "Don't remove the ancient landmarks!" If you have been in church leadership for very long you have heard these lines and many more like them. Even as we continue to hear of the decline in church participation and the decreasing percentage of our population who profess to be followers of Christ there is a deep entrenchment in tradition that chokes the potential new life out of our churches. As men of this generation is there a way to be proactive, biblically sound leaders and yet implement healthy, life provoking change? The C.O...2021-05-2744 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 49: The Three Things Killing the Church in America: Part 2 - Christian Celebrity Culture (Concluded)In a time when even churches, preachers, and ministries are so utterly focused on "Likes," "Retweets," and "Follows," how can true disciples of Jesus avoid the lure of celebrity culture and truly stay focused on following Jesus and promoting him rather than self? We have some great examples in scripture (John the Baptist, Paul) and we have some great examples in modern Christianity (i.e. Billy Graham), hopefully we can be the same kind of examples in our own local fellowships.2021-05-2027 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 47: Bridging the Generational Gap (PT 2) - Attitude Shifts and Action Steps to Bring Multiple Generations TogetherThe crew concludes this discussion on how to bring the multiple generations together by emphasizing the central focal point of the "generationless" and unchanging God (His truth and dominion). There are also some key points of integration, certain action steps which can be taken to unite men from each generation into a common cause: 1. Round table discussion 2. Generational Integration in life groups 3. Mentorship and Initiation which connects older men with younger men.2021-05-0645 min

The C.O.D.E of ManEpisode 46: Bridging the Generational Gap (PT 1)There are five generations of people living and working together in our culture, churches, and communities. Often the different philosophies, life experiences and cultural trends can create generational tension. This can result in older generations missing out on the fresh vision and insight the younger guys bring to the table and the younger generation dismissing the older men as irrelevant in a new day. We need all generations at the same table if we are going to build true men in this desperate age.2021-04-2943 min

(PT 4 - A Man's Resources: What Qualifies a Man as "A Man?")Two questions frame this discussion based out of Genesis 2, "When did you know you had become a man?" and "What does 'Being a man' really mean?" The C.O.D.E. Crew continues the unlocking of the masculine image in the origin of man's creation by God. Is manhood more than toys, trucks, and treasures? Who can really say "I am a man" or "There goes a real man," and how can young men find that path to maturity?2021-04-0847 min

(PT 3 - A Man's Responsibility Cont.)In this episode the Crew finishes the discussion on the role of a man's work as a means of bearing the image of God in his life. What about the man who feels stuck in a job he hates? Or the man who is near retirement but looking back on 20-30 years of life and thinking he may have wasted it? Also, was Easy Target having an off day at the control board? Some days are just like that.2021-04-0128 min

Our modern culture is described in Psalm 55 by King David as a soul killing, spiritual life draining place where violence, strife, wickedness, and guile surround us.
