The most spiritual thing you can do tonight has nothing to do with prayer. It is putting your phone down and going to bed.

Most men are trying to build a spiritual life while completely ignoring the body it has to live in. Sleep, food, movement, and stillness are not health habits. They are spiritual disciplines — and neglecting them will undo everything else you are trying to build.

In this episode, you'll learn:

  • The body is not separate from your spiritual life — it is the doorway to it
  • Dysregulation does not announce itself as a spiritual crisis — it shows up as snapping, scrolling, and skipping the practice
  • The most sacred thing you can do tomorrow morning is go to bed on time tonight

Click play now if you have been working on your spiritual life while ignoring the body it has to live in.

The podcast explores the connection between men and dads seeking freedom from addiction, pornography, infidelity, and drinking, while confronting anger, anxiety, and depression through prayer, meditation, and mindfulness, leaning on Jesus and God for strength, confronting pride, discovering purpose, practicing cold plunges, and ultimately building resilience along the journey.
