Psalms 139:23-24 (NKJV) 23 Search me, O God, and know my heart;

Try me, and know my anxieties; 24 And see if there is any wicked

way in me, And lead me in the way everlasting.

2 Corinthians 5:7 (NKJV) 7 For we walk by faith, not by sight.

An uncommon man does not deny reality, but he refuses to be ruled by it.

He can see facts and still move by faith. He can acknowledge the mountain and still speak to it.

He can recognize pressure without bowing to it.

He trusts what God has said more than what circumstances are screaming.

6) He has the Mind of Christ

“for, “Who has known the mind of the Lord so as to instruct him?” But we have the mind of Christ.” ‭‭1 Corinthians‬ ‭2‬:‭16‬ ‭NIV‬‬

7) He Sets His Mind on Things Above

“Set your minds on things above, not on earthly things.”

‭‭Colossians‬ ‭3‬:‭2‬ ‭NIV‬‬

This week we continue to study the Marks of an Uncommon Man and how to apply them to our lives.

4) He represents the King

20 Now then, we are ambassadors for Christ, as though God were pleading through us: we implore you on Christ's behalf, be reconciled to God.

2 Cor 5:20

5) He sees Himself as Sent not Settled

21 So Jesus said to them again, "Peace to you!

As the Father has sent Me, I also send you."

John 20:21

#1 – Marks of an Uncommon Man: Living From, Not For.

In the very first episode of Marks of an Uncommon Man, we explore one of the foundational differences between common living and uncommon living: identity. Most men spend their lives striving for approval, validation, success, and significance—but the uncommon man understands he is meant to live from acceptance, not for it. Anchored in Romans 12 and Colossians 3, this episode challenges men to stop performing for worth and begin operating from the finished work of Christ.

We discuss what it means to live from rest instead of exhaustion, from sonship instead of insecurity, and from heaven’s perspective instead of the world’s pressure. This conversation lays the groundwork for becoming a man who is transformed by God, rooted in identity, and unshaken by the opinions or expectations of others.

#2 – Marks of an Uncommon Man: He Knows Whose He Is.

What stabilizes a man when pressure, failure, obscurity, or warfare come? In this episode of Marks of an Uncommon Man, we dive into the power of belonging and identity through the Father. An uncommon man is not constantly trying to prove who he is through performance, titles, or accomplishments—he already knows whose he is. Rooted in 1 John 3:1, this episode unpacks the deep confidence and steadiness that comes from being named, loved, and claimed by God.

We talk about how identity before assignment changes the way a man handles leadership, adversity, and purpose. While the common man searches for worth through recognition and achievement, the uncommon man walks in quiet confidence because his identity was settled long before his success ever was.

As men of God we must manage our family well. Let’s get into what that means.
