Was Jesus Alpha or Beta? | EP. 3

The Family Captain

Was Jesus alpha or beta when he was letting people spit in His face and punch Him?

Was He alpha or beta when He was rebuking the Pharisees?

Gentlemen...Jesus shows us so clearly that He was the right thing at the right time.

And if we're going to be following King Jesus as godly family leaders...we've got to be the same:

The right thing at the right time.

There's a ton of nuance in the alpha/beta conversation that gets lost amidst childish emotions and immaturity. This episode will help you avoid ditches on either side of the debate, while also giving you a way out of toxic tendencies to operate in one extreme or the other.

Nobody tells men that our lives will shift into autopilot without us noticing. They didn’t warn us that our marriage would drift into average instead of amazing. But Christians should have the best marriages and the best sex lives. The Family Captain will show you how.
