What does "real friendship" look like for men?
How can I build strong Christian relationships that push me to be a better leader?
Why is having faithful, accountable friends essential for thriving as a husband, father, and man?

This week on the Men of Iron Podcast, hosts Ryan Zook and Colton Herb tackle one of the core pillars of a man's life: authentic, meaningful friendships. Discover why so many men feel isolated today, and learn actionable steps to identify, cultivate, and keep strong, faith-driven friendships that move you closer to God and true success.

Dive into the story of the "mat carriers" from Mark 2, unpacking the importance of loyal friends who carry you through the storms of life.
