Father On Purpose Podcast Manhood Journey

Trust is hard to earn because it's so easy to lose. We've all experienced the pain of putting our complete trust in someone only to end up feeling betrayed or abandoned. Thankfully, as Christ followers, we serve a God who can be trusted in every season of life, even when those closest to us miss the mark. Trusting God is a non-negotiable for living the Christian life well—and for becoming the godly man your kids and wife need.

Some men are natural fixers. They just know how to connect the right wires or make "Tab A" and "Slot B" fit to perfection. Others struggle--and usually call in a professional for help.

He's given you all the tools you need to get the job done right, the fatherhood job He’s assigned specifically to you. You just need to recognize what's in your toolbox and lean into His wisdom to use His gifts well. Father’s Day is a great time to start!

Time is humanity's most precious resource, and the time that a dad has to invest in and encourage his family is even more priceless. In a culture that demands a piece of you at every turn, it can be tough to know how to make the most of the moments we're given as fathers. Thankfully, God has given us His thoughts through His Word, and men who want to know how to "be there" in good times and bad can learn from His wisdom.

Years ago, God challenged Don Manning to go deep with Him and to go deep with his family. While it wasn’t the answer that Don was seeking at the time, it was a call that changed his life and his family legacy forever. The result has been a ministry that’s focused on helping dads find meaning and purpose—not to mention a whole lot of fun—in doing family God’s way. Listen to hear the wisdom Don’s gained over more than three decades of building and nurturing his own crazy, cool family.

In a world where guys are supposed to have it all together, admitting any kind of need or weakness seems like a dangerous proposition. But, as pastor Craig Bowler reminds us, Jesus often comes to us with a simple question: "What do you want?" Becoming the man God created you to be involves letting Jesus show you the "wants" you may not even realize you have—and letting Him be the One who meets those deepest needs.

While money comes in handy for this life, time has always been humanity's most precious resource. After all, we can always make more money, but time disappears forever with each tick of the clock. Since time is so valuable, we need to make sure we're not wasting a single moment of this gift that God has given us. Wise and generous men recognize a great investment when they see one—and nothing can be more profitable to us and our families than learning how to spend our time well.
