In this episode of Men Under Construction, Brandon Couch and Steve Ranz unpack the power and purpose of the cross—not just as a symbol of salvation, but as a blueprint for how we live. They explore what it means to apply the cross to our emotions, affections, and identity, especially when facing feelings of inadequacy, rejection, or uncertainty.

Through scripture, personal insight, and practical wisdom, Brandon and Steve discuss the importance of waiting on the Lord, stewarding our time and resources well, and living a life that points to something eternal. Whether you're feeling worn out, overlooked, or simply searching for direction, this episode reminds us that our adequacy comes not from ourselves, but from God—and that dying to self is the path to true life and lasting purpose.
