Life Is About Who You Are Becoming (A Message to Men)

What if you had the opportunity to sit down with yourself twenty years ago over coffee? What would you say?

Quincy opens this episode with that exact question and delivers a clear, urgent message to men in every season of life:

Life is about who you are becoming.

It is not about who everyone else thinks you should be. It is not about the misconceptions of who you think you have to be in order to make an impact. It starts with who you are becoming.

From there, he lays out foundational priorities that every man must lock in:

  1. Become an expert at prioritizing your time. Few things matter more than having your priorities straight.
  2. Dig into your relationship with Jesus Christ — not religion, not doctrine, but a real relationship with the One who has called you.
  3. Understand that becoming Family Famous matters most because your number one ministry as a husband and father is your family.

This message is for:

  1. Young men 18–25 who are still forming their direction
  2. Men in their 20s and 30s who are married (with or without children)
  3. Any man who feels lazy or lost ambition, distracted by selfish ambition, or unsure of the vision for his life

Quincy challenges listeners to stop and ask hard questions:

  1. Am I the man I promised I would be?
  2. What is the vision for my life?
  3. Where am I actually living right now?

He shares from personal experience how transformation began when he created disciplines based on who he believed God wanted him to be, then surrendered his selfish ambition. Over time, Jesus continued the work of renewal — even through seasons of the gray, disappointment, and adversity.

The episode ends with a clear gospel invitation and a strong prayer for every man listening, whether he already walks with Christ, has drifted, or does not yet know Him.

Quincy also announces the major transition underway: Man vs Marriage is becoming Family Famous — a men’s leadership podcast focused on teaching men how to become famous where it matters most: at home.

Key Takeaways

  1. Life is about who you are becoming, not who others expect you to be.
  2. Your first ministry is your family.
  3. Prioritizing time and deepening your relationship with Jesus are non-negotiable foundations.
  4. Transformation begins with honest evaluation of where you are, followed by disciplined action and surrender.
  5. You can start today — right where you are.
  6. There is hope no matter what season you find yourself in.

Questionnaire / Reflection

  1. If I could speak to myself 10–20 years ago, what is the most important thing I would say?
  2. Am I currently the man I promised my wife (or future wife) I would be?
  3. What is the vision of the man I am supposed to become?
  4. Where have I been distracted by selfish ambition or lost vision?
  5. What is one discipline I need to lock in this week that aligns with who I am becoming?

A Family Man! A Happily married man however that happiness hasn't always come easy. After 10 years of marriage and 8 children with numerous medical emergencies and family tragedy we had become roommates. Fast forward 10 years and we have become closer than either of us had ever known possible. After this amazing transformation thanks to our marriage coach Rita Enos, my wife and I decided to give back to the entire Human Race and give Men the opportunity to decide "How Good do you want your life/Marriage to be"? I am hardwired to inspire because it gives me life! It was only natural that I take this desire to inspire and my incredibly handsome face for radio to make a difference like I have experience in my own life.
