The 318 Brotherhood: Rebuilding Men, Restoring Families, Advancing God’s Kingdom
🎙️ When Abram heard that his relative had been taken captive, he called forth 318 trained men—born in his own house—and led them into battle (Genesis 14:14). That moment wasn’t just about warfare. It was about leadership, legacy, and a man’s response to the call of God. The 318 Brotherhood Podcast is a call to modern-day warriors—men who are ready to rise from the pit, lead their families with purpose, and build lives aligned with the King’s design. Hosted by Richard Kauffman, author of Ascension of the Warrior: The Master Craftsman’s Design, this podcast blends Biblical truth, raw life experience, and real transformation through a proven 8-step framework. Each episode is built for men who are tired of living numb, playing small, or pretending they’re okay. Whether you’re grieving the loss of a child, rebuilding your marriage, reclaiming your faith, or starting over in business—this brotherhood is for you. Join us each week as we rebuild men, restore families, and advance God’s Kingdom—one warrior at a time. Join the Brotherhood https://www.318men.com/318-brotherhood

In this powerful episode, I ask one of the most important questions every man of God needs to answer:
“Are you begging, pleading with God to take your pain away, hoping He hears you from somewhere far off in heaven?”
For over 30 years, I prayed from pain—hoping for scraps, never realizing I had the keys to the Kingdom the whole time. In this raw Bible study, I share how God flipped my prayer life, revealed my true identity, and showed me how to stop begging and start believing.
This episode will help you:
Break free from a beggar’s mindset
Understand your authority in Christ
Pray from your position as a son, not your pain
Intercede boldly for your family, health, and finances
Step fully into your birthright
Whether you're dealing with a broken relationship, financial pressure, or a health battle—this is your invitation to rise.
