What does a "Psalm 112 man" actually look like in a busy dad's real life? Kent and Lawson kick off a three-week walk through Psalm 112 (vv. 1–4 today), unpacking what it means to fear the Lord, delight in His commands, and model four marks at home—upright, gracious, compassionate, and righteous. You'll hear practical cues you can use this week, like scheduled windows for texts/emails, small daily "deposits," and how to show grace in the grocery-store parking lot).

We also talk perspective on "wealth and riches," why righteousness endures, and how the gospel fuels growth over time—without pretending dads have to be perfect. Pull up a chair, laugh with us, and leave with two or three doable steps for leading your family with joy and awe. You're not a father by accident—go be a Father On Purpose.

He's spoken at parenting and men's events, and authored four books.

The latest, Don't Bench Yourself: How to Stay in the Game Even When You Want to Quit, aims to help dads stay present in their roles as fathers and husbands even when they feel like giving up. Kent's life has been radically affected by godly mentors and his lovely wife, April. They have been married thirty years and have five sons and one daughter-in-law. He lives in Louisville, Kentucky.

His family is nearing an empty nest phase and has recently relocated to the Florida Gulf Coast beaches area.
