106 Manhood: Teaching a Biblical Identity Part 2 - a podcast by Christian Parenting

What does it mean to be a man?  The answer to this question is as important as it’s ever been.  But in a post-truth culture, the answer is muddier than ever. Giving our young men and women a clear vision for manhood will ground them and give them purpose in a constant shifting culture. Today’s podcast does exactly that.  Starting with a simple definition to train our small children, I expand with Robert Lewis’ definition of a REAL Man to help guide our sons and daughters as they approach adulthood.

Courage is not the absence of fear. Courage is choosing to walk forward even in the presence of fear.
