Inside Congress: Ethics, Power, and the Cost of Telling the Truth
The Daily Devotional by Vince Miller
When corruption becomes normal, truth becomes dangerous. In this episode of Faith + State, Vince and Elliott dig into the growing ethical crisis in American politics — from insider trading in Congress to corporate loopholes to the political machine that punishes anyone who dares to speak honestly. We trace this all the way back to 1 Kings 22, where Micaiah told the truth to a corrupt system that only wanted “yes men.” The same pattern shows up in modern government, corporate culture, and even our personal lives. If you've ever wondered why calling out wrongdoing gets you attacked… this...

Most men’s groups rise or fall on what happens between meetings. You can run a solid 60-minute gathering, but real brotherhood, real transformation, and real momentum are built in the six days that follow.
