Looking for a daily dose of faith-filled encouragement built specifically for men? 365 Christian Men delivers a new story every single day — short, powerful accounts of real men living out God's purposes, from the first century to today.^1
Founded in 2018 by Blake Mattocks, a former bricklayer turned pastor, the project began with a simple vision: collect and share the stories of Christian men throughout history.^2 The roster spans pastors and missionaries to mechanics, barbers, football coaches, and even a voice actor for Star Wars — each story focusing on a single, pivotal moment where faith met action.^3 A dedicated team of forty-five writers, seven narrators, and a full production staff bring each 5-8 minute episode to life as a daily podcast.^4
What started as inspiration for Mattocks' four sons has grown into a global movement reaching millions of people monthly across over 100 countries, with stories translated into English, Tamil, Urdu, and Spanish, with Hindi translations underway.^4 The ministry is a registered 501(c)(3) and has expanded into 365 Christian Stories, a broader platform now hosting both men's and women's daily stories at 365christianstories.com.^1 The women's edition, 365 Christian Women, launched in early 2026 with its first year successfully completed.^4 Small group worksheets are available for churches wanting to use the stories in men's ministry settings.^1
Why Christians Love It"I believe that God answered a prayer of mine with the discovery of this podcast. After reading about the life of Todd Beamer... I was hungry to hear about more Christian men's stories, and how God has used them. God has answered that prayer with this podcast."^5
"Some of these men are well known and others are humble servants to the Lord. We NEED both to show the world who Christ Is, Was, and Always Will Be."^5
"Each day a new story about a man turning his faith into action. Some of the men are well known, others are ordinary men who did extraordinary things for the Lord. A great way to start your day."^6
