𝗢𝗰𝘁𝗼𝗯𝗲𝗿 𝟮𝟮 𝗶𝘀 𝗴𝗲𝘁𝘁𝗶𝗻𝗴 𝗰𝗹𝗼𝘀𝗲𝗿.

Maybe you've been following Glenn's story for years. Maybe you just found him. Maybe something we've posted over the last few weeks has made you stop and think about your own life differently.

Built to Rise is your opportunity to take that conversation offline and into a room filled with people willing to talk honestly about mental health, resilience and recovery.

Don't wait until the week of the event. Get your ticket today:https://janesvillepac.org/box-office/?pg=listeventsgrid

Football was part of Glenn Derby's story.

𝗜𝘁 𝘄𝗮𝘀 𝗻𝗲𝘃𝗲𝗿 𝘁𝗵𝗲 𝘄𝗵𝗼𝗹𝗲 𝘀𝘁𝗼𝗿𝘆.

𝘍𝘳𝘰𝘮 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘪𝘯𝘦 𝘵𝘰 𝘵𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘪𝘨𝘩𝘵 goes beyond what people saw from the outside and into the battles that happened when the stadium wasn't watching.

Today, those experiences are helping shape a much bigger conversation about recovery, identity and what it means to rise after life doesn't go according to plan.

Read the story. Then join us October 22 for the next chapter.

Sometimes we explain. Defend. Shut down. Get louder. Walk away. Or say we're fine when we're anything but fine.

Clear communication requires more than finding the right words. It requires understanding what's happening inside of us before we ask someone else to understand it.

This is one of the conversations we're taking deeper at Built to Rise.

Built to Rise combines personal stories, practical perspective, reflection and a moderated conversation where Glenn, Jim and Brittany will talk openly about trauma, recovery, communication, relationships and rebuilding.

We don't want you walking out temporarily motivated. We want you walking out thinking differently about what's happening underneath the surface of your own life.

Experience it October 22. Reserve your seat.

Glenn is taking the conversations he's already started about recovery, fatherhood, relationships, faith, identity and transformation and going deeper.

Solo conversations. Real stories. Guests who've lived it. And truths that aren't always comfortable to hear.

Follow now. The first conversations are coming soon.

09/17/2026

A MAN’S EGO ISN’T REVEALED WHEN EVERYONE AGREES WITH HIM.

It’s revealed when someone challenges what he believes.

Challenge his politics.
Challenge his faith.
Challenge the way he interprets Scripture.
Challenge something he’s believed his entire life.

Then watch what happens.

Some men get angry.

Some attack the person instead of discussing the issue.

Some shut down.

Some walk away.

Some avoid the conversation completely because questioning the belief feels like questioning THEM.

But there’s another option.

A mature man can stay in the room.

He can listen without surrendering his convictions.

He can ask questions without feeling weak.

He can say, “Maybe I need to think about that.”

He can disagree without disrespecting.

And he can examine whether what he believes actually lines up with the man—and follower of Jesus—he says he wants to be.

That takes strength.

Your political beliefs are not your identity.

Your religious label is not your identity.

And having your beliefs challenged does not make you less of a man.

Sometimes the strongest thing a man can do is put his ego down long enough to have the conversation.

CALM the CHAOS.

Then COMMUNICATE with CLARITY.

That’s Upstairs Living.
