The Fuel of Fear: How God's Love Disarms the False Self
In this episode of the Exploring More Podcast, Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings return to the powerful themes of hiding, proving, and fearing—three intertwined patterns that shape a man’s internal world. They examine how fear fuels a “false self” and keeps men from living in the freedom and love God offers.
Through personal stories, biblical insight, and years of spiritual formation experience, Michael and SJ unpack the metaphor of a heart running on empty—pushing through the desert until it reaches the “filling station” of God’s love. This image frames a larger conversation about identity, healing, and the invitation to live with nothing to hide, prove, or fear.
Listeners will discover how fear-driven behaviors often trace back to wounds, and how perfect love—real, experienced, and relational—can cast out that fear. The episode emphasizes the power of grace, honest self-reflection, and community in helping men step into the life of an oriented man: grounded in truth, formed by love, and surrounded by support.
