Two things changed everything for our family: embracing biblical headship and starting daily Family Worship.In this foundational episode, Ryan Frederick issues a clear, unapologetic call to Christian men: Family Worship is the lifeblood of every Christian home, and leading it is the central, defining outworking of biblical headship.In this episode you’ll discover:Why there will never be revival in the church until there is revival in the home—and why that revival, at scale, begins with men leading worship in their living roomsThe biblical case from Deuteronomy 6 and Joshua 4 that Family Worship is not optional, not a suggestion, but a direct command to fathers as the priest-prophet-pastor of their covenantal householdHow Family Worship tangibly connects your marriage and children to the covenant-keeping God who redeemed youWhy skipping it is functionally choosing the idols of busyness, screens, and distraction over the jealous God who delivered you from slaveryA simple, battle-tested framework we use in the Frederick home: Read → Sing → Pray (with practical tips you can start tonight—even if you feel awkward or inadequate)Powerful quotes from Spurgeon, Matthew Henry, and Howard Hendricks that will light a fire under youIf you’ve ever prayed for your family to love Jesus more but felt stuck… if you know you’re called to lead but don’t know where to begin… this episode is your wake-up call.Leading Family Worship isn’t one more thing on the to-do list.It’s the one thing that orders everything else.Stop drifting.

Worship is what we were designed to do. Now, and forever. In this episode of Fierce Men, I talk with pastor, author, and theologian Dr. Matthew Everhard to unpack his bold yet hopeful critique of modern church trends in his book Worshiptainment: The Modern Church's Golden Calf.Dr. Everhard speaks with clarity and grace about how entertainment-driven worship can unintentionally sideline reverence, doctrine, and the fear of God—especially among men. Together, we explore what biblical worship truly calls men to: leading in prayer, anchoring in Scripture over spectacle, and cultivating humility in the pews and at home.If you’re weary of fog machines and feel-good sermons but longing for worship that forms fierce, faithful men—this conversation will both challenge and inspire you.Discover practical, joyful steps to recover God-centered worship in your church, family, and personal life.Required listening for any man serious about honoring God in the assembly.Visit https://amzn.to/4qZ9cW0 to pick up a copy of the book.

Fathers, the energy you bring home is the nuclear reactor of your family’s atmosphere. One exhausted Monday night, I looked around the dinner table—whining toddler, cranky 6-year-old, worn-out teens, and my wife’s face mirroring it all. I realized: I was the problem.Instead of clearing plates, I grabbed my ukulele and belted out the silliest song I know. Within seconds, laughter erupted, kids ran circles, older ones sang while doing dishes, and the entire evening flipped."Joy should be the default setting for your home. Be the thermostat." – JM ClarkIn this episode:Why headship = responsibility for the emotional temperature (Voddie Baucham: "As the father goes, so goes the home.")The fire-in-the-woodstove analogy for warming a cold house (and why your wife’s help keeps it steady)5 actionable steps to reclaim the thermostat:Talk to your wife first (unity, not weakness)Call a family meeting & own your failuresCast vision for a joyful, peace-filled homeExecute consistently (smile, laugh, dad-joke with confidence)Enforce with love—call out grumbling, celebrate delightExamples in action:Countenance: Smile first, even when tired.Playfulness: Brazen dad jokes = self-unseriousness + leadership.Persistence: Check in with your wife naturally; remind kids by modeling.Cold homes don’t warm instantly—but consistent fire-starting changes everything.Fierce Men is about becoming better men and doing more for God’s Kingdom.

Fierce men don’t just lead at home—they reform the household of Christ. This episode exposes the drift toward entertainment-driven, irreverent, and doctrinally shallow worship in Western churches. From dancing skeletons to pop-song theology, we diagnose the problem and prescribe biblical solutions: exegetical preaching, reverent liturgy, masculine hymns, and a return to historic Christian doctrine.Inspired by Ezekiel, Luther, and Hebrews 5, we call men to mature beyond spiritual milk, speak boldly against sacred cows, and build churches that glorify God—not culture. Practical steps included.Subscribe for more Fierce Men episodes on leadership, faith, and cultural renewal.Join the brotherhood: FierceMen.us/bandVisit FierceMen.us
