207: Parents, How Do You Raise Up Godly Men? A Father’s Role in the Formation Process

As men, we often feel like we're stumbling our way through life, especially when it comes to our roles as fathers, leaders, and husbands. But God's original design for men is not about figuring it out on our own. In this episode, I share the importance of embracing God's plan for manhood — a blueprint for maturing, leading, and ultimately carrying His glory. From the formation process in Genesis to the call, testing, and commissioning that every man faces, this message is a call to rise up, embrace the journey, and walk in the fullness of your identity.

God's design isn't just for men to be strong on their own, but to be shaped, tested, and equipped by others. It’s a process — one that we can’t do alone. Through the Brave Co. Ride of Passage and through relationships with other men, we are empowered to walk out God's calling for our lives. It’s time to stop stumbling and start living out the destiny that God has for us. If you’ve ever felt unseen, or like you don’t have what it takes, this episode is for you. Join me as we explore how God's plan for men leads to freedom, strength, and divine purpose.
