Coffee and the Cross: Love, Life & Money
Coffee and the Cross is a podcast for everyday Christian men who are trying to live out their faith in the real world—marriage, work, money, leadership, and the quiet pressures no one talks about.
This isn’t a show for pastors, theologians, or men who have it all figured out. It’s a down-to-earth, Jesus-centered conversation for blue-collar, salt-of-the-earth men who love God but still wrestle with fear, exhaustion, responsibility, and doubt.
Each episode feels like sitting down over coffee and talking honestly about:
- faith when you’re tired but still showing up
- money anxiety and the pressure to provide
- marriage in the middle miles
- leadership without control
- prayer when you don’t feel spiritual
- trusting Jesus in everyday life
If you’re looking for real talk, biblical truth without hype, and faith that actually works Monday through Saturday, you’re in the right place.
Coffee and the Cross exists to help men bring the gospel into real life—without shame, without pretending, and without shallow answers.
Pull up a chair. Grab a cup of coffee. Let’s walk this out together.

In this episode of Coffee and the Cross, we continue the Flawed Men, Faithful God series with the story of Joseph—a man who stayed faithful even when life didn’t make sense.
From being betrayed by his brothers and sold into slavery to rising through leadership in Egypt, Joseph’s life in Genesis is a powerful example of what it looks like to trust God through suffering, waiting, and uncertainty. This episode explores biblical leadership, integrity, and faith in real life—especially for Christian men navigating work, family, and financial pressure.
If you’ve ever felt stuck, overlooked, or questioned whether God is working in your life, Joseph’s story will remind you that God is still working—even when you can’t see it.

I remember hearing the devotional every morning on the radio before school. But… If we heard Robert Cook saying, "Walk with the king today and be a blessing." we knew it was time to run, not walk out the door to catch the bus
