The Power of One Man

One Man - How God Uses Men Like You to Change the World

Parenting Pathway Stonebriar Community Church Frisco, TexasAs a parent raising boys in today’s America we struggle with helping them find their way to manhood to be the leaders and spiritual influences that God has called him to be.

Dr. Ron Archer—pastor, speaker, and author join Pastors Dave Carl and Nathan Kocurek in this Parenting Pathway Podcast to talk about his new book The Power of One Man: How God Uses Men Like You to Change the World. This conversation looks at how one ordinary man, husband, father, son can change the world. Boldly changing direction and following Christ, he can make a difference in his home, community, and church, just as God has called him to do.

The statistics are staggering, according to the U.S. Census Bureau, 18.3 million children, 1 in 4, live without a biological, step, or adoptive father in the home.1 With this in mind,  how will so many boys know what a Godly man looks like? Ron shares his personal stories of growing up in a home with his father in jail and mom raising him alone, and the impact God had in changing the direction of his life and future generations.

The Power of One Man was written to show men how significant they are, how valuable they are, and how important they are to God. One man can make a difference. All it takes is for them to say, ‘Yes, Lord, here I am,’ and miracles are unleashed upon earth.

  • Dr. Ron Archer

    Ron has been connecting with audiences ever since he started preaching Sunday nights in a Cleveland church when he was sixteen years old. These days, he travels the globe with a message that remains the same: that God can use anyone, including someone like him—the unwanted child of a seventeen-year-old call girl—to share the hope that comes from believing in Jesus Christ, who came to this earth to redeem our sins and give us eternal life with Him.

  • Nathan Kocurek

    Emerging from the depths of the late 1970s, Nathan Kocurek spent his formative years under the influence of Hall & Oates, Duran Duran, and other notables while listening to KRBE in Houston on the clock radio beside his bed. Nathan was influenced to love Jesus by the example of his young single mom, and he grew up with a love for God but an incomplete understanding of discipleship. As a result, as a teenager, he indulged in a relentless and, at times, reckless pursuit of social and athletic achievements, seeking to assuage an innermost feeling of emptiness that he could not escape. Finally, by God’s grace, the Spirit of the Lord made it clear to him that none but Jesus could satisfy what he was lacking. The answer had been there all along. Later, Nathan married the girl of his dreams and they ran off to California, had two sons, and returned to Texas where they adopted their sweet daughter. Having served as a Student Minister at two previous churches over the past 18 years, Nathan and his wife, Marie, are now thrilled to follow the calling of Christ at Stonebriar Community Church.
