I Know a Guy Podcast
I know a guy who used to measure his worth by how busy he was.
I know a guy who could quote Scripture but couldn’t tell you what he was feeling.
I know a guy who lost his temper, lost his marriage, and almost lost himself trying to hold it all together.
Yeah…that guy was me.
Do you know a guy like that? Or maybe…you are that guy.
This is I Know a Guy, a podcast for those guys who need a place to be honest, to laugh a little, maybe cry a little, and remember who you really are.
I’m Steve Cummings, and this podcast is an outgrowth of a ministry called Bringing Kingdom, where we walk with men one conversation, one connection, and one community at a time.
If you know a guy who needs this conversation - send him this episode.
And if that guy is you, I know a guy who’d love to talk with you.
That guy…is me.
Visit BringingKingdom.org/talk to start your own conversation, and remember - when men live loved, the Kingdom shows up.
Thanks for listening to I Know a Guy.

Do you ever feel like life is defined by your job, your roles, your performance — but inside, something feels empty? What if you’re not who you think you are?
Today we’re releasing a brand-new episode of I Know a Guy called “Are You Like Jason Bourne?”
Inspired by the classic film, we explore the idea of spiritual amnesia — where we live disconnected from our true identity in Christ, believing lies about ourselves, God, and others. We unpack how identity shapes our thoughts, emotions and actions — and why trying harder or doing more will never fix the root issue.
If your heart is hungry for truth and freedom, this episode is for you. Let’s stop living by performance… and start living found. Listen, reflect, and take your next step in discovering who you really are — as beloved children of the King.

Have you ever heard yourself say, “Yeah, but …” when someone offered you honest feedback? Maybe you shrugged it off, defended yourself, or dismissed the truth before fully hearing it.
On the next episode of I Know a Guy, we unpack a timely message from the Bringing Kingdom blog: the difference between false humility and true humility. You’ll hear why our “false selves” are built to protect but often keep us from connection — and how embracing our identity as beloved sons can free us to listen, grow, and love others more deeply.

Are you doing all the “right” spiritual things — reading Scripture, praying, attending church — yet somehow feeling stuck?
On the upcoming episode of I Know a Guy, we dive into what it really means when your spiritual journey stalls. It’s not always a lack of discipline.
Often, it’s emotional health — the hidden pain, shame, or numbness that keeps us from experiencing true growth. Join me, Steve Cummings, as we explore why spiritual maturity and emotional wholeness are inseparable, and discover practical ways to begin moving forward. If you’re tired of going through the motions and longing for real connection — this episode is for you.

Have you ever been triggered by something — maybe a careless word, a tense conversation, or a surprise stress? And felt yourself react before you even knew why?

If you want to grow in emotional wisdom, healthy communication, and deep healing — this episode is for you. Listen now.
