Broadcasting the Truth of Jesus Christ

The Obligation Episodes

A weekly “roundtable” discussion by men of faith via multiple media platforms to address everyday issues of faith, morals, ethics, family, business, apostleship, fellowship, and life. We will discuss everyday men’s topics that guys regularly struggle with and many don’t get a chance to hear or are afraid to ask. We want to assist our listeners in becoming the men, fathers, and husbands God created them to be! Listen Friday’s at 5:00 pm.
