Ep. 46 The Measure of a Man Is How He Loves

Kevin English Episode 46

What if everything you thought made you a “real man” — strength, courage, discipline, success — meant nothing without love?

 

In this week’s episode, Coach Kevin unpacks one of the most overlooked commands in Scripture:

Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.

Let all that you do be done in love. - 1 Corinthians 16:13–14

 

Most men love the first part — be strong, act like men — but gloss right over that last line. Yet Paul tells us that love is the truest test of manhood. Not emotion. Not weakness. But the kind of sacrificial, servant-hearted, Christ-centered love that costs you something.

 

In this soul-stirring message, you’ll discover:

  • The difference between eros (self-centered love) and agape (sacrificial love).
  • Why strength without love isn’t manhood — it’s pride.
  • A powerful “litmus test” that reveals how well you’re really loving.
  • How to pursue your wife’s heart, lead your family, and love others from a place of overflow, not exhaustion.
  • Why you can’t manufacture love through willpower — and how to stay connected to the Source that fuels it.

 

This episode will challenge you to look in the mirror and ask the only question that really matters: “Am I leading with love?

 

Because in the end, the measure of a man isn’t in his muscles, his money, or his status — it’s in how he loves.
