This is a podcast for men who are tired of feeling stuck… tired of chasing approval… and ready to discover who they truly are in Christ. Brent unpacks the battles every man faces—purpose, identity, anger, lust, shame—and gives you practical, biblical tools to break free from unhealthy thoughts, emotions, and actions. This isn’t about behavior modification. It’s about transformation. Because when a man knows who he is… everything changes.","last_synced_at":"2026-06-29T00:17:35.752425+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/unleashed-6461450"},"episode":{"title":"That’s Not What God Said: Why Shame Doesn’t Produce Obedience","slug":"that-s-not-what-god-said-why-shame-doesn-t-produce-obedience","published_at":"2026-03-23T13:29:43+00:00","page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/unleashed-6461450/that-s-not-what-god-said-why-shame-doesn-t-produce-obedience","show_page_url":"https://stenobird.com/podcast/unleashed-6461450","url":"https://rss.com/podcasts/unleashedpodcast/2653386","audio_url":"https://content.rss.com/episodes/146594/2653386/unleashedpodcast/2026_03_23_13_27_39_8c52301e-b3ee-4d51-8b0e-30c0f3eb67d3.mp3","summary":"Is shame really how God changes people? In this powerful episode of Unleashed , Brent Henderson challenges one of the most common—and damaging—beliefs in Christian culture: that fear, guilt, and shame will lead people to obedience. Through real-life stories, biblical truth, and raw honesty, Brent unpacks why shame doesn’t transform hearts—and why it may actually push people further away from God. You’ll hear: A shocking church illustration that used fear to drive decisions A real conversation with a woman trying to be “good enough” for God A heartbreaking story of a family burdened with shame after tragedy The truth about suicide and what Scripture actually says A powerful reframing of the Prodigal Son story—through the lens of the Father This episode dives deep into identity, grace, and the truth that God is not looking for reasons to reject you—He’s looking to redeem you . If you’ve ever felt like you had to earn God’s love… If you’ve been weighed down by guilt or shame… Or if you’ve tried to change yourself—or others—through pressure instead of grace… This episode will set you free.","meta_description":"Is shame really how God changes people?
