In part one we built a theology of pain — what it is, where it comes from, and what God says about it. Now we answer the question every man actually wants answered: what do you do with it?

In this episode Josh and Nick break down the difference between acute and chronic pain, walk through the RICE protocol and where it holds up and where it doesn't, and get into the nuance around NSAIDs — when they can be a legitimate tool and when they become a crutch. They also make the case for isometrics as one of the most underused tools in pain management and rehabilitation, and close with injury-specific protocols for the three areas most men are actually dealing with — shin splints, knee pain, and back pain.

Nick is currently managing a herniated L5. Josh's seasonal allergies spike his knee. This isn't theory.

Closes on Hebrews 12:1-4.

He discusses the importance of discipline, identity in Christ, and intentional living to fulfill God's purpose.

John Huffman is a pastor, mentor, coach, speaker, and multiple business owner who has built his life on the power of Jesus, grit, obedience, and real-world leadership. His story is not one of polished religion or easy success. It is a story of redemption. After battling addiction, brokenness, and a life that could have gone completely the other direction, John encountered the grace of God in a way that changed everything.

Today, he is the founder of John Huffman Speaks, where he pours into entrepreneurs, leaders, families, and churches with raw truth, biblical conviction, and practical wisdom that actually works in real life. He is also a successful construction business owner, leading multiple businesses while helping others build strong teams, healthy systems, clear vision, and lasting legacy.

John carries a rare voice because he does not just preach faith, he has lived the process. He understands pain, pressure, leadership, business, family, and the cost of growth. Whether he is behind a pulpit, in a boardroom, on a stage, or mentoring one-on-one, his mission is the same: to see people healed, built, equipped, and fully alive in who God called them to be.

John Huffman is a man of faith, a builder of people, a builder of businesses, and a voice for those who know they were made for more.
