255. Death by a Thousand Compromises
In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface unpack one of the greatest threats to every Christian man — compromise. Not the big, obvious kind that’s easy to recognize, but the subtle daily decisions that slowly dull your conviction and weaken your purpose.

Garrett shares from his Navy SEAL background and personal faith journey how compromise starts small — in your words, habits, and relationships — and ends up shaping your entire destiny. Together, he and Nick expose the three most common compromises men make and explain how to identify and kill them before they kill your calling.

Garrett and Nick also cover the 5 most common compromises which are:

  1. Your word 
  2. Your character
  3. Your health 
  4. Personal growth
  5. Belief

The Impossible Life
254. Avoiding Sin Is Not the Same as Pursuing Purpose
Most men think winning in life means avoiding failure — not falling into sin, not losing money, not messing up their marriage. But what if “avoiding bad” is the very thing keeping you from God’s best?

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface unpack the difference between living to avoid sin and living to pursue purpose. Drawing from Garrett’s Navy SEAL experience and biblical truths, they reveal why mission focus — not fear — is the foundation of greatness.

You’ll learn:
  • Why compromise is one of the deadliest traps for Christian men
  • The lesson of the Commander’s Intent and how it applies to your life’s purpose
  • How to identify when you’re playing life on defense instead of offense
  • Why financial freedom, comfort, and safety are not the goal — and what to chase instead
  • The mindset of obedience and greatness that aligns with God’s design
This episode will challenge how you think about discipline, faith, and success — and help you shift from trying not to fail to living fully for the mission God gave you.

If you’ve ever wondered how to keep your passion alive without burning out or chasing trends, this episode gives you the blueprint for energy that lasts and purpose that stands firm through adversity.

The Impossible Life
252. The 5 Excuses That Will Make You Average
In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface pull back the curtain on what it truly means to live ALL IN — not the motivational cliché, but the biblical, practical, and battle-tested reality. They show you the 5 most common and popular excuses that people buy into that keep them from going all in.

Most people think “all in” means going 1000 percent every day. Garrett and Nick reveal why that mindset burns out more men than it builds. They break down the two true ingredients of being all in:
  • Level of Effort (time and energy)
  • Level of Commitment (belief and discipline)
Through stories from the Navy SEAL teams, leadership lessons from business, and biblical parallels to marriage and faith, they explain how men can hold fast to the mission even when motivation fades.

You’ll learn:
  • Why effort alone will never make you successful
  • The “Big Five” reasons commitment breaks down
  • How to lead yourself and others when your leader or plan isn’t perfect
  • The power of trust, belief, and consistency in every area of life
  • What it really looks like to be a man who finishes what he starts
This episode is a gut-check for every Christian man who’s tired of half-hearted living and ready to commit to the process, not just the feeling.

251. How to Simplify Vision And Live It Out
In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface strip away the fluff and break down what vision really means—and how to make it simple enough to actually live out.

Forget waiting for a divine lightning bolt or a dream of winged beasts like Daniel. Real vision starts with a choice: Who do you want to be right now? 

Through hilarious stories (including ice baths, Navy SEAL training, and even Chuck Norris), Garrett and Nick illustrate how transformation isn’t about developing superpowers—it’s about choosing how you show up in the moment and acting your way into the man God called you to become. They cover:
  • Why most men overcomplicate vision and stay stuck waiting for clarity
  • How to take ownership of your attitude, behavior, and identity—even in pain
  • The difference between being “inspired” and being transformed
  • The mindset shift that separates strong men from average ones
  • Why “there are no superpowers” is actually one of the most freeing truths you’ll ever learn
If you’ve ever felt like your vision for life was foggy, this episode will help you cut through the noise and step into clarity.

249. The Path of Transformation: How to Become Who God Designed You to Be
Transformation doesn’t happen overnight—and it’s not about self-help or hype. It’s about submission, work, and revelation.

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Nick and Garrett break down Romans 12:1–2 and reveal the three-part path of transformation every believer must walk:
  1. Submission – Laying down your way of thinking and surrendering control.
  2. Work – Allowing God to renew your mind daily through obedience and discipline.
  3. Revelation – Learning to see God’s will clearly and distinguish what’s real from what’s counterfeit.
They talk about how transformation is not a one-time event but a continual process of dying to self and being renewed through faith, growth, and belief. You’ll learn:
  • Why most people quit before they ever change
  • How to strengthen belief when you face the unknown
  • How to test what’s real and fake in your life and purpose
  • Why failure is part of transformation—and how to keep your faith through it
If you’ve ever wondered how to move from where you are to where God is calling you, this episode will equip you to stay in the process and trust God’s timing.

244. There's More For Your Life: Breaking Limits & The 90% You Don't Know Exists
What if the life you’re living right now isn’t the life God ultimately has for you? In the SEAL TEAMs, they say that when you've reached your end, you have only hit 10% of your actual limits. Most people quit with 90% left untapped. What does that additional 90% look like in your life?

In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett and Nick challenge you to step out of small thinking, break free from comfort zones, and embrace the more God has called you to. Too many men settle for survival when God designed them for impact.

This conversation dives into scripture, mindset, and practical strategies for refusing mediocrity and running after the abundant life Jesus promised. Whether you feel stuck, restless, or simply hungry for greater purpose, this episode will push you to see what’s possible when you refuse to coast and start living with holy ambition.

  • Why settling for “good enough” robs you of God’s best
  • How to identify hidden limits you’ve placed on your life

241. Fear God or Fear Everything Else - You Decide
“The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.” You’ve probably heard that verse before—but what does it really mean? Is it about being scared of God, or is it something much deeper?

In this powerful episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Nick and Josh Craft dive into one of the most misunderstood biblical concepts: the fear of God. From Philippians’ call to “work out your salvation with fear and trembling” to Solomon’s conclusion in Ecclesiastes, we unpack why reverence and awe for God are essential for every Christian man who wants to live with wisdom, strength, and integrity. You’ll discover:
  • Why “fear of the Lord” is not about being afraid, but about living in reverence, awe, and submission.
  • How history shows what happens when people lose their awe of God.
  • The connection between fearing God and building true wisdom, strength, and leadership in your life.
  • Practical ways to live with reverence every day—in your home, your work, your marriage, and your walk with God.
This conversation will challenge complacency, sharpen your perspective, and call you to a higher way of living. If you want wisdom that endures, this episode will show you where it begins.

239. When Nice Guys Make Weak Men: The Truth About Kindness
Our culture says kindness is about being nice, agreeable, and making people feel good. But what if that definition is actually making men weak? In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Nick and Garrett tackle the misunderstood fruit of the Spirit—kindness.

They dive into the original Greek meaning of the word, chrestotes, which points to being useful, beneficial, and fit for service. Real kindness isn’t about avoiding hard truths—it’s about speaking life, giving what’s needed (not just what feels good), and helping people grow even when it stings.

From mountain hikes and brotherly banter to biblical examples like Jesus and the rich young ruler, this conversation will challenge your view of kindness and equip you to live it out God’s way. What you’ll learn in this episode:
  • Why cultural kindness is about feelings but biblical kindness is about purpose.
  • How to discern when telling hard truth is real love.
  • Why being “liked” is a poor substitute for being useful.
  • Practical ways men can embody Spirit-led kindness in their homes, friendships, and leadership.

238. Both vs Balance: Why Great Men Refuse to Choose
In this episode of The Impossible Life Podcast, Garrett Unclebach and Nick Surface challenge one of the most common cultural myths: work-life “balance.” Instead of trying to carefully divide your time, energy, and priorities into equal portions, Garrett and Nick show why true greatness comes from embracing both—not balance. From faith to family, fitness to career, men often feel pressure to sacrifice one area to succeed in another. But as Garrett says, “I don’t like the idea that my family only wins when my business loses. I’m not playing that game.” Drawing from biblical truth, personal discipline, and hard-won life experience, they reveal:
  • Why “balance” often leads to mediocrity and compromise.
  • How God Himself models the both mindset as both love and law.
  • The difference between what’s finite (time, money, energy) and what’s abundant.
  • Practical wisdom for pursuing success in multiple areas without settling.
  • How asking the right questions—“What will it take to achieve both?”—transforms your mindset.
This conversation is a bold invitation to stop settling for balance and start pursuing abundance. As Garrett reminds, “The standard you set determines whether you live in compromise or rise to your calling.”

237. How to Start Building Unshakable Identity Immediately
Most men don’t have a weakness of skill—they have a weakness of self.
Your identity shapes your future, and your attitude is the evidence of what you really believe.

In this episode of The Impossible Life, Garrett and Nick break down the powerful connection between identity and attitude, and why so many men sabotage themselves without realizing it. Through personal stories, biblical truth, and even lessons from psychology, they reveal how your beliefs, values, and daily choices either reinforce—or erode—the man you are becoming.

If you’ve ever wrestled with self-doubt, inconsistency, or feeling like your actions don’t line up with who you want to be, this episode will help you recognize the blind spots and chart a clear path toward strength and clarity.

The Impossible Life
236. Strong Men Don’t Happen by Accident: The Vision Unlock
Most men drift through life reacting to circumstances instead of living from vision. But the strongest men in history—the ones who led, built, and endured—had a clear picture of who they were and where they were going.

In this episode of The Impossible Life, Garrett and Nick dive into what it means to be a vision-strong man—a man whose identity is defined not by culture or emotion but by a standard he sees clearly and lives out daily.

From Michelangelo’s chiseling of David, to the brotherhood of the Navy SEAL teams, to raising the next generation of “mighty men,” you’ll learn how to build an identity that guides your choices, strengthens your family, and sets you apart in a world of compromise.
