Some moments in life demand a deeper kind of response.

This week's Moment of Truth challenges Christian men to think beyond knee-jerk reactions. When tragedy strikes or pressure mounts, it’s easy to respond with frustration or just pull back. But Scripture shows us there’s another way.

So, what does your response reveal? Are you reacting to the world—or reflecting the heart of Christ?

1 Peter 2:15 reminds us that how we live can silence the noise around us—not with volume, but with goodness.

Listen to this short, powerful segment from Moment of Truth—taken from the weekly show Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow. It’s real faith for the real world, from the frontlines of faith.

What do you do when evil seems to be winning?

You don’t retreat.
You don’t grow silent.
And you definitely don’t stop doing good.

In this week’s “Moment of Truth,” Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) issues a clear challenge from Psalm 37: “Trust in the Lord and do good.”

This isn’t passive. It’s the front line of your faith. As a Christian man living in a culture that’s unraveling, your courage must show up in your choices—every day. Because if you’re not pushing back with truth, what are you doing?

Your circumstances don’t have the final word—Jesus does.

Episode 2 of "Moment of Truth," the powerful new short-form podcast from the weekly radio show "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," brings a focused reminder from Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret): your mindset matters. Your perspective shapes your walk. And real peace isn’t found in changing your situation—it’s found in Christ.

Rooted in Philippians 4, this message reminds us that peace and contentment are found in Christ—not in shifting circumstances. It also brings to mind Peter walking on water—when his eyes were on Jesus, he stood firm. But when he looked away, he began to sink.

So where are your eyes today? On your circumstances—or on Christ?

If you’re ready to reset your perspective and realign your mind with God’s truth, this episode is for you. And it's only a few minutes!

What’s the story your life is telling?

When it comes to fatherhood, the real testimony isn’t in what you say—it’s in how you show up.

In this first episode of “Moment of Truth”—a new short-form podcast bringing Scriptural clarity and real-world challenge for Christian men—Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) reminds us: your children are watching. In a culture full of noise, fatherlessness, and distraction, what kind of man are you showing them you are?

On the heels of Father’s Day in the U.S., this is your call to step up. Own your influence. Live a life that points to Christ—starting at home.
