106 - It's time to rebuild masculinity - with Eric Conn
Description
SUMMARY:
Men need to be men again. It's time for men to stop feeling guilty for being men and taking on the roles the God has given to men.
GUEST INFORMATION:
In this episode Eric Conn joins us to talk about masculinity and the patriarchy. We talk about what it means to be man from a biblical perspective and how we have allowed culture to devalue and denigrate that calling. Eric hosts The Hard Men Podcast and he co-hosts two other podcasts - The King’s Hall Podcast and The Wilderness Warrior podcast. Through all of these projects Eric is calling men to be strong, to be hard, and to live up to the expectations that God has put on them.
