These are both historic and modern day stories. These stories span more than 2000 years. From the abolitionist, to the actor, and the addict. From the baker to the barber. From the educator to the evangelist and the executive. From the pastor to the pill pushers, even presidents. From the tank operator to the truck driver. These stories as well as the hundreds of others will hit home, they will challenge, they will resonate, they will convict, and they will inspire.","last_synced_at":"2026-09-15T16:23:23.613657+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/365-christian-men-6236704"},"episode":{"title":"When Justice Isn't Enough: The Power of Mercy","slug":"when-justice-isn-t-enough-the-power-of-mercy","published_at":"2026-08-26T08:00:00+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/365-christian-men-6236704/when-justice-isn-t-enough-the-power-of-mercy","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/365-christian-men-6236704","url":"https://d22e17c4-9416-4676-ba5a-316bbf69d620.libsyn.com/when-justice-isnt-enough-the-power-of-mercy","audio_url":"https://traffic.libsyn.com/secure/d22e17c4-9416-4676-ba5a-316bbf69d620/08-26-26.mp3?dest-id=3929637","summary":"John Winthrop was ready to punish a man for stealing wood—until he discovered the desperation behind the theft. His decision to respond with mercy instead of punishment reveals a powerful lesson about Christian leadership, compassion, justice, and caring for those who are struggling. For men carrying responsibility at work, home, or in their communities, this story challenges us to look beyond someone's failure and ask what might be driving it. Listen and consider where God may be calling you to replace quick judgment with wise, restorative mercy. Join the mission.
