The Men Who Made Me

The Men Who Made Me will be diving into the topics of masculinity, culture, religion, and power. As we do this, we invite you to listen. Engage with the content. Entrust your time to the hand-picked individuals offering their insights. This is, first and foremost, an exploration, for us as well as for you. We hope each of us comes away with new insights on what it means to be a man - to be strong, humble, empathetic, and courageous. We hope, at the end of this project, that as much as there is to diagnose and untangle, you will also see (and believe in) all of the good that is out there. Because we believe in it, too. We have faith in this generation of men, because we have faith in the one that came before us. Welcome to The Men Who Made Me.

    An important role model to Paige and Caleb, Gabe has been a behind-the-scenes part of this podcast for a while.

He also serves as lead pastor at Christ Community Downtown Campus, where we attend weekly. To get started, Gabe offers his ideas on defining masculinity and shares how women have influenced his views, particularly growing up in a single-mother home.
