We begin with the first question God asked man after the fall: “Where are you?” From Genesis 3:9–12, this episode challenges men to stop hiding behind shame, blame, excuses, and fear.

38. That number carries weight.

It is the wilderness.

The years lost when men refuse the promise in front of them.

When fear speaks louder than faith.

When disobedience becomes a graveyard for destiny.

It is also the mat.

The place where a man can sit so long in the same condition that waiting becomes his identity.

Israel lost men in the wilderness.

The man at the pool lost years beside the water.

And many men today are losing themselves…

In silence.

In anger.

In lust.

In fear.

In shame.

In excuses.

In the belief that someone else has to move first.

But history does not move because men stay down.

Churchill stood.

Fredrick Douglass stood.

Abraham Lincoln stood.

Nelson Mandela stood.

Martin Luther King stood.

Different men. Different battles. Same decision.

Stand.

And now the question comes to us: Will we stand?

Stand? Why?

Because your children are watching.

Our family is waiting.

Our community is waiting.

Our country is waiting.

The world is waiting.

But most of all…the man God called you to be is waiting.

This is The 38 to 1 Podcast

The end of wasted years.

The death of excuses.

The beginning of a new walk.

TODAY. NOW.
