Coffee and the Cross: Love, Life & Money
Coffee and the Cross is a podcast for everyday Christian men who are trying to live out their faith in the real world—marriage, work, money, leadership, and the quiet pressures no one talks about.
This isn’t a show for pastors, theologians, or men who have it all figured out. It’s a down-to-earth, Jesus-centered conversation for blue-collar, salt-of-the-earth men who love God but still wrestle with fear, exhaustion, responsibility, and doubt.
Each episode feels like sitting down over coffee and talking honestly about:
- faith when you’re tired but still showing up
- money anxiety and the pressure to provide
- marriage in the middle miles
- leadership without control
- prayer when you don’t feel spiritual
- trusting Jesus in everyday life
If you’re looking for real talk, biblical truth without hype, and faith that actually works Monday through Saturday, you’re in the right place.
Coffee and the Cross exists to help men bring the gospel into real life—without shame, without pretending, and without shallow answers.

If you’ve ever wondered whether God can really use a man like you… this series is for you.
In this introduction to the Flawed Men. Faithful God. series, we take a fresh look at the men of Genesis—Adam, Noah, Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Judah, and Joseph—not as perfect heroes, but as ordinary men who struggled, failed, feared, and still became leaders God used for His purposes.
Because if the Bible teaches us anything, it’s this: God doesn’t call the qualified—He qualifies the called.
In this series on Coffee and the Cross, we’ll walk through the real stories of these men and see how God shaped them through failure, fear, waiting, and grace. Each episode will explore the man, the mistake, the fear behind it, the turning point where God stepped in, the leadership lesson for today, and how every story ultimately points to Jesus.
This isn’t about becoming a perfect man.
It’s about understanding how a faithful God builds strong, godly men out of imperfect ones.
If you’re a husband trying to lead well, a father wondering if you’re doing enough, or a man who loves Jesus but sometimes feels stuck, this series will remind you that God is still writing your story.

I remember hearing the devotional every morning on the radio before school. But… If we heard Robert Cook saying, "Walk with the king today and be a blessing." we knew it was time to run, not walk out the door to catch the bus
