  • Why Do I Feel Like I am Failing Everyone?

    Why Do I Feel Like I am Failing Everyone?
    Nov 11 2026
    Do you ever feel like no matter how hard you try, you're always letting somebody down? You work hard, you care about the people in your life, and you do your best to show up. Yet somehow, it still feels like you're not doing enough. But have you really failed, or are you expecting more of yourself than God ever asked? This week, Victor and I talk about: 🔹Why men feel responsible for everyone's happiness and problems 🔹How unrealistic expectations leave us feeling like failures 🔹Why disappointing someone doesn't always mean you've done something wrong 🔹What Moses and Jesus teach us about priorities and knowing when to say no 🔹How to discern what's truly your responsibility and let go of unnecessary guilt Here's the truth: You can be doing good things and still be doing too much. God isn't asking you to be everything to everybody. He's asking you to be faithful to what He's called you to do.

  • Why Am I Never Satisfied

    Why Am I Never Satisfied
    Oct 27 2026
    Have you ever worked so hard for something, convinced it would finally make you happy, only to get it and realize something was still missing? Maybe it was a promotion, more money, a relationship, or finally reaching a goal you'd been chasing for years. It felt great for a while. But then the excitement faded, and you found yourself looking for the next thing. Why is it never enough? This week Victor and I talk about why so many of us spend our lives chasing happiness but never seem to find lasting satisfaction. We discuss: 🔹Why getting what we want doesn't always make us happy 🔹What we're really searching for beneath our desire for more 🔹What Jesus teaches us through the woman at the well 🔹The difference between contentment and complacency 🔹Five practical ways to stop chasing and start living with greater peace and fulfillment Here's something I've had to learn in my own life: Sometimes the problem isn't that we don't have enough. It's that we're expecting the wrong things to fulfill us. Jesus offers us something the world never can. And until we understand that, we'll keep going back to the same wells that leave us thirsty.

    Why Do I Feel So Behind in My Life?
    Oct 20 2026
    Have you ever looked at your life and thought, “I really thought I'd be further along by now”? Maybe your career didn't turn out the way you hoped. Maybe you've made decisions you regret, missed opportunities, or spent years chasing things that didn't really matter. And now you're wondering, “Have I wasted too much time? Is it too late?” This week on Just a Guy in the Pew, Victor and I talk about why so many of us feel behind in life and how to stop letting the past rob us of the life God has given us today. We discuss: 🔹Why comparing your life to others steals your peace 🔹How the expectations we place on ourselves can leave us feeling like failures 🔹The difference between learning from your past and living in regret 🔹Why God's timeline doesn't always look like ours 🔹Practical ways to stop looking backward and start living with purpose today Here's something I've learned the hard way: You can't change the years behind you, but you can change what you do with the years ahead. Folks, it's not too late to start living the life God is calling you to live.

  • Why Do I Feel So Far From God?

    Why Do I Feel So Far From God?
    Oct 13 2026
    Have you ever prayed and felt like God wasn't listening? No matter how hard you try, you just can't seem to feel His presence? I've been there. Even in ministry, I've found myself asking, "God, where are You?" But here's something I've learned: Just because God feels far away doesn't mean He's abandoned you. This week, Victor and I talk about why we sometimes feel distant from God and what we can do to draw closer to Him. In this episode, we discuss: 🔹Three reasons God may feel far away 🔹How distractions, sin, and shame affect our relationship with Him 🔹Why unanswered prayers can leave us angry with God 🔹Why faith is about more than feelings 🔹Practical steps to reconnect with God We also share some personal struggles and a simple 7-day challenge to help you grow closer to Him. No matter where you are in your faith right now, God hasn't given up on you. Don't give up on seeking Him.

  • What If My Wife and I Are Just Roommates?

    What If My Wife and I Are Just Roommates?
    Oct 6 2026
    When you first met your wife, you pursued her. You wanted to see her. You asked questions. You planned things. You noticed her. But somewhere along the way, life happened and sometimes the woman you couldn't wait to spend your life with starts to feel more like a roommate you're managing life with. This week on the podcast, Victor and I ask a difficult question: When did I stop choosing her? On this week's episode we talk about: 🔹How good marriages slowly drift without us realizing it 🔹Why your wife still needs to know she's worth pursuing 🔹How resentment and “keeping receipts” create distance 🔹The difference between living together and actually sharing a life 🔹Simple ways to start choosing your wife again every day And by the end of the show, we will give you a 7-Day Choose Her Challenge—one intentional thing each day that tells your wife, I still choose you. If your marriage has felt distant lately, or you simply want to love your wife better, I hope you'll find help in our message this week.

  • Nobody Knows I Am Struggling

    Nobody Knows I Am Struggling
    Sep 29 2026
    There’s a strange contradiction a lot of men live with: We desperately want someone to know we’re struggling—but we keep telling everyone we’re fine. We get really good at smiling, showing up, taking care of everyone else, and convincing the people around us that everything is okay. Then we wonder why nobody really knows us. This week, Victor and I talk about: 🔹Why men can have good friends and still feel completely alone 🔹Why we’re so afraid to let people see what we’re really going through 🔹Why you can’t expect someone else to know you if you’re not honest with yourself 🔹What Jesus shows us about vulnerability and asking others to stay with us We also give you four practical things you can do this week to stop carrying everything alone. If you've ever thought, “Nobody really knows what I’m going through,” this episode is for you. Check out the episode and share it with someone who may need to hear it.

    Why Do I Keep Falling to the Same Sin?
    Sep 22 2026
    Have you ever promised yourself, “I’m never doing that again”—only to find yourself right back there a few days or weeks later? Lying. Judging. Anger. Drinking. Gossip. Lust. Whatever the struggle is, eventually we start asking: Why do I keep doing something I don’t want to do? This week on the podcast, Victor and I get very real about why we keep falling into the same sins—and why the battle is often lost long before the actual fall. We talk about: 🔹How to recognize the patterns that lead you into temptation 🔹Why simply “trying harder” usually isn’t enough 🔹The doors we keep leaving open in our lives 🔹The second temptation that comes after we fall 🔹Practical steps you can take to actually start fighting differently If there’s something in your life you genuinely want to change, this episode is for you.

  • Why Am I Angry All the Time?

    Why Am I Angry All the Time?
    Sep 15 2026
    Have you ever lost your temper over something small—and ten minutes later wondered, Why did that bother me so much? Maybe the anger isn't actually the problem. Maybe it's pointing to something underneath. This week, Victor and I get real about why we get so angry, what our anger may be trying to tell us, and how Jesus wants to heal more than the behavior—He wants to get to what lies beneath it. If you keep telling yourself, I'm not going to lose my temper again, only to find yourself doing it anyway, this episode is for you. In this episode we cover: 🔹Why anger itself isn't necessarily sinful 🔹What's often hiding underneath our anger—fear, rejection, insecurity, shame, hurt, exhaustion, or the need for control 🔹Why the people we love often end up paying for wounds they didn't cause 🔹What Scripture and the Church teach us about anger 🔹How Jesus wants to heal the what beneath the surface instead of simply helping us manage the symptom 🔹Concrete steps to take to deal with Anger issues Follow this link to order your signed copy of our new book, Power Made Perfect: https://store.justaguyinthepew.com/ Learn more about our pilgrimage: Walk where Jesus walked with John 👉https://selectinternationaltours.com/product/pilgrimage-to-the-holy-land-with-john-edwards-and-fr-james-clark/ Launch a Life Changing Group for Men in Your Parish! ⛪️ http://www.justaguyinthepew.com Become a Partner in the Pew! 🤝 http://www.donorbox.org/pew DOWNLOADS📚 Get a copy of my new eBook, “12 Ways Guys Can Get Closer to Jesus”! http://JUSTAGUYINTHEPEW.COM/EBOOK
