Southside Tribe! This week we discuss how rejection and hardship are some of life’s great teachers—but only if we learn from them instead of avoiding them. In this episode, we explore how rejection shapes us for better or worse, how wounded ego can turn into vengeance, and why so much of modern masculinity is built on perception and intimidation rather than wholeness or healing. From dating culture and influencer wealth to Scripture’s warning about the uncertainty of riches, this conversation challenges where we place our hope. Ultimately, it’s a call to trade image for integrity, give up shortcuts for real formation, and false security for the lasting riches found in humility, discipleship, and trusting Christ. Pull up, we got another heater for ya! Episode on all audio platforms, and bonus content on our Patreon community!!
