A creation never needs permission from the creator to do what is created to do.

2
00:00:05,000 --> 00:00:14,000
Hello and welcome to the Stand Up Dude podcast.

3
00:00:14,000 --> 00:00:18,000
I am one of your hosts, Stewart White, along with Tim Bisagno.

4
00:00:18,000 --> 00:00:21,000
Maybe your first question is what is a Stand Up Dude?

5
00:00:21,000 --> 00:00:23,000
You know, I've just seen that in today's culture,

6
00:00:23,000 --> 00:00:29,000
it's bold and potentially offensive to call a man to be a man.

7
00:00:29,000 --> 00:00:34,000
A stand up dude is a man being the man that he's created to be.

8
00:00:34,000 --> 00:00:40,000
I know some guys might listen to podcasts or hear guys where they'll hear a lot of calling men out,

9
00:00:40,000 --> 00:00:44,000
just shaming them mostly. What makes us different?

10
00:00:44,000 --> 00:00:48,000
First of all, nobody that I know likes being called out.

11
00:00:48,000 --> 00:00:54,000
A stand up dude isn't calling men out instead we're calling men forward.

12
00:00:54,000 --> 00:00:58,000
We don't necessarily have to have this big revolution then.

13
00:00:58,000 --> 00:01:02,000
We don't need a revolution but what we do need is a resolution.

14
00:01:02,000 --> 00:01:10,000
We need men that have made a resolute decision to stand up and be the man that they're created to be.

15
00:01:10,000 --> 00:01:13,000
Jesus just lived it always.

16
00:01:13,000 --> 00:01:17,000
People don't always follow your words but they'll follow your feet.

17
00:01:17,000 --> 00:01:23,000
Leaders call forward the best in us by first walking the walk.

18
00:01:23,000 --> 00:01:25,000
No one did that better than Jesus.

19
00:01:25,000 --> 00:01:36,000
Am I willing, with God's help, to do the work, to discover or rediscover the man that I'm created to be.

20
00:01:36,000 --> 00:01:43,000
You keep on running from my eyes.

21
00:01:43,000 --> 00:01:47,000
Why do you have to suffer?

22
00:01:47,000 --> 00:01:53,000
Come on my arms are open wide.

23
00:01:53,000 --> 00:01:58,000
This can all be over now.

24
00:01:58,000 --> 00:02:02,000
