Band of Brothers: Stronger Together
HOST: DR. TIM CLINTON
GUEST: DENNIS SWANBERG
JANUARY 17, 2023

On today’s edition of Family Talk, Christian comedian Dennis Swanberg says that many men are lonely, and they struggle with regret and secret fears. Proverbs 27:17 declares, “As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” That’s why all Christian men need to resist the temptation to isolate and should find a trustworthy accountability partner. Swanberg points to the biblical examples of Paul and Luke as well as Silas and Timothy. When men confess their sins in transparency to God and to one another, they can be healed.

Dennis Swanberg is a popular comedian, motivational speaker, and author. He served the local church as a pastor for 23 years before stepping down to pursue speaking full-time.
