Our culture has lots to say about the topics of leadership and what standard men should follow these days. This has caused far too many men to struggle with ideas of leadership, masculinity, and falling into the trap of being the lone wolf.
My guest today is Josh Khachadourian. Josh is a husband, father, leader, coach and host of the 'Raising The Standard' podcast. Josh has spent the last 20 years ascending the corporate ladder in a Fortune 100 company where he focused on building high performing teams and developing best in class leaders.
He has encountered and observed the pressures today's men are facing. Most men are grappling for identity and struggling through challenges in life without a plan. Jesus provides a plan and sets a standard that is relatively unknown to the modern Christian man.
His mission is to show men everywhere that Jesus is accessible, relatable, real and relevant. And his book ‘The Standard’ has been challenging, changing and calling men to raise the standard in their lives. You can connect with Josh, read his blog, listen to his podcast, and more at standard59.com
We have a great conversation today on leadership, on Jesus as the standard, and lots more….

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
