Episode 16: All by Myself
2020 and 2021 has plunged many of us into at least 1 period of lockdown, if not multiple. In today's world of endless digital connection and seemingly declining barriers to relationships, we seem lonelier than ever before. Lockdown and isolation has certainly exaggerated this and our (un)righteous men decided to chat about it. This episode is proudly sponsored by Zoom Technologies (not really, @zoom please sponsor us)

Episode 15: Closer than a Brother
Proverbs 18:24 reads, "A man who has friends must himself be friendly, But there is a friend who sticks closer than a brother." We sometimes think that something like friendship is only really important when we are younger, but no matter how old we are it is something we should be very intentional about. Something beautiful that has been ordained for us by God.
But what is true friendship? Is it necessary, or even possible for us to have these types of friends in our lives? How do things like social media and milestones in our lives and the lives of others affect the landscape of the long-term friends in our lives? Is there anything wrong with distancing myself from someone I don't feel has been a true friend to me? How are we showing up for the friends in our lives?
Tune in as the team are joined in the studio by the wise (and hilarious) Kiro Tadrus to discuss these and more.

Episode 14: The “Friends” Reunion
Plenty of roasting and discussions on spiritual resolutions also included.
Episode 13: Mental Health Matters
Episode 12: Mental Health Part 2 - "Man in the Mirror"
How can we further differentiate between a 'rough patch' and a situation where we might be in need of more help? What does that recovery process look like? Is there anything wrong with men 'playing to their strengths' and sticking to different coping mechanisms rather than opening up to others about what's going on?
What message of hope is there for those that are struggling with a mental illness and are doing all the right things, yet the situation still isn't improving?
Tune in as your hosts are joined by the amazing Kiro Saleeb of Exodus Youth Worx to discuss these points and more in the next installment of the TRM Mental Health Series.
Episode 11: Mental Health Part 1 - “Pray it Away”
Is there validity to the school of thought that mental health issues are symptomatic of a deficiency in our spiritual lives? How do we reconcile God's endless love and omnipotence and the suffering we may endure in carrying a mental illness? What practical steps can we take if we think that our mental health might be suffering, and in what way can we support those around us who might be suffering?
Tune in as your hosts are joined by the incredible Fr Elijah Iskander to discuss these points and more in the first part of the TRM Mental Health Series.
Episode 10: Toxic Masculinity
But what exactly constitutes ‘toxic’ behaviour? Is there anything inherently toxic about masculinity itself? Are men being required by society to become weak, watered-down versions of the traditional image of manhood? As Christian men how should we be responding to these discussions and conducting ourselves in turn?
Tune in as your hosts bring you the most controversial discussion on TRM to date.
Episode 9: Get Rich Or Die Trying
Is the story of The Rich Young Ruler in the Gospels a cautionary tale about material success? Or can success be used for the glory of God?
Tune in as your hosts are joined by the amazing Johnny Zakarian of Cross Realty for our most entertaining episode yet!
Episode 8: At The Gates of Hell
In the parable of the Prodigal Son, Jesus tells us that we can never be too far gone - it’s always possible to come back home. And yet, sometimes we really do feel that we are too far gone: that we will never beat this addiction, that we’ve failed too many times, that our situation will never change, or that we will never deserve forgiveness.
How can we move forward when we find ourselves stuck in that dark place? How can we support those around us who may be feeling this way? What must we know about ourselves as young men?
Tune in as your hosts are joined by the incredible Debbie Armanious of Exodus Youth Worx for a very special conversation.
Episode 7: "Shoot Your Shot"
Episode 6: Make Up or Break Up?
Episode 5: She's the One
Deciding whom we are going to spend the rest of our lives with is one of the most crucial decisions we will ever make. How can we truly know if they're 'the one' for us? Where does the idea of 'God's will' fit in? How can our decisions be affected by negative experiences in relationship? Tune in as your hosts are joined by the amazing Father Samuel Fanous to discuss!
Episode 4: Mrs Right vs. Mrs Right Now
Welcome to Part 1 of the very first series here at The Righteous Man on 'Dating'. The season of singleness can be tough for both men and women, but how should it be navigated and how should the time be spent? Is there really anything wrong with the idea of having our "fun" now while we're young and settling down later? What if we may have built a bit of a reputation for ourselves, and feel that we might be judged for our dating history, especially within the Church? What do "Mrs Right" and "Mrs Right Now" even mean? Are we even considering the fact that we also need to become the person that our "Mrs Right" would want to be with?
Make sure you tune in as your hosts Ray, Marc & David get into the nitty gritty of this very important topic that unfortunately is not discussed in honesty enough.
Episode 3: Fight Like A Man
Men do not exactly have the best reputation when it comes to conflict resolution - for some of us expressing our emotions is an extremely challenging task. Some of us see conflict as something to "win", and there are some who prefer to resolve conflict by simply yelling louder than the other person. How should we approach conflict as men? What does it mean to 'be the bigger man'? Does the Bible offer us a practical means of approaching people that have hurt us? Or does "turning the other cheek" mean we will never be able to stand up for ourselves? What if the conflict is within our own families?
Join your hosts Ray, Marc and David as they jump into a very real-talk discussion about how we can 'Fight like a Man'.
Episode 2: Men's Expectations of Women
In the Podcast's pilot episode we explored society's expectations of men. In Episode 2 we delve into an extremely important topic for both men and women: Men's expectations of Women.
Do men have certain expectations of women? And where do these stem from? To what extent are these influenced by social media, our own families and the unrealistic 'ideals' pressed upon us by society? Can expectations be managed or even corrected if necessary? Tune in as your hosts Ray, David are joined by an extremely special guest, Dina Malak, who shares a female perspective on this very important topic - and drops several pearls of wisdom along the way! Not one to be missed!!
Episode 1: Society's Expectations of Men
Welcome to the very first episode of The Righteous Man! In this episode you'll be introduced to our hosts (and one rebellious sound guy) as they dive straight into a very important topic: what does society expect of men? What does it mean to 'be a man'? What are the markers and indicators that someone has achieved 'manhood'? How should our faith in Christ inform these ideas? Join us in what will God willing be the first of many beautiful discussions into masculinity, mental health, relationships and many other important issues.
