Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow

"Lazy River Faith"

What comes to mind when you hear the word warrior?

A man with a weapon?
A fighter driven by anger?
Someone who dominates others?

Or something entirely different?

What if a warrior is actually defined by discipline, humility, obedience, and strength under control?

What if the greatest warrior who ever lived did not conquer with weapons—but with the Truth?

In this episode of "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," host Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) and his wingman Christy Mendelow begin a new series examining a critical question:

What does it actually mean to be a Christian warrior?

Many people carry a picture shaped by movies, culture, or personal opinion. But when that picture is wrong, it affects how we see Jesus—and how we understand the life He calls us to live.

In the show, Richard and Christy take a serious look at the difference between the secular idea of a warrior and the biblical reality.

A true warrior is not driven by ego.
He does not answer only to himself.
And he does not act according to emotion or impulse.

A warrior lives under authority.
He holds himself to a higher code.
He serves something greater than his own comfort or ambition.

These qualities may appear in earthly roles of duty and service, but they find their fullest meaning in the life of a man who follows Christ.

Jesus demonstrated strength that was calm, deliberate, and unwavering in the Truth. He knew who He was, who sent Him, and the mission He came to fulfill. And for those who follow Him, that clarity changes how we live, lead, and stand in a confused world.

Listen now at CourageousChristianity.today, on KKHT.com, iHeart Radio, or on select podcast platforms and examine what a Christian warrior truly is—and why that clarity matters now more than ever.

"What is a Christian Warrior?"

Picture a crowded high school lunchroom.

Noise. Pressure. Messaging from every direction.
Voices telling young men what matters. What’s right. What’s normal.

You would pray for clarity over that young man.
You would ask God to protect his thinking.

But here’s an important question: Are you any less surrounded?

If every generation insists it’s smarter than the last —
why does the thinking of men keep producing confusion?
If experts can’t decide whether eggs are good or bad —
why would you entrust your family to cultural certainty?
If philosophies shift every decade — what is actually anchoring you?

In Part Two of this series, Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) and his wingman Christy Mendelow move from exposing unstable thinking to confronting its consequences.

They examine stoicism, cultural trends, modern movements, and confident experts — and then hold them up against Scripture.

Not to argue.
To test.

Because every man is building his life on something.
The question is whether it will still stand ten years from now.

What are your children catching from you?
Are you filtering the world through the Bible — or the Bible through the world?

If you want to live anchored instead of reactive…
If you want to lead with conviction instead of impulse…
If you want clarity that doesn’t shift with culture…

The world is loud. Don’t let it shape you without examination.

"The Thinking of Men: Part Two"

Most men believe they think clearly.

But what if much of our thinking is simply inherited, emotional, or shaped by whatever voice is loudest in the moment?

You don’t have to wait for a crisis to see what governs you. Look at your daily decisions. What defines “right” in your home? What defines “fair” at work? What defines “good” in your conversations?

This week on "Courageous Christianity with Richard Mendelow," Colonel Richard J. Mendelow (Ret) and his wingman Christy Mendelow walk through a real decision that forced a choice: follow instinct — or follow Scripture.

You’ll hear how to slow your thinking down.
How to separate reaction from conviction.
How to orient yourself before you act.

If you want steadier judgment…
If you want your decisions to reflect your faith — not your emotions…
If you want to lead your family with clarity instead of impulse…

Listen.
