    I'm 29, just got my hunters safety.. Been out with a bow a few times, started shooting skeet on weekends, started Taekwondo a few months ago, started bushcraft/backpacking.. These are all things I never grew up doing, that I want to at least become semi-competent to teach my kid who will be born a month from now :D never too late to start, I'm a year sober and never felt better in my entire life! Oh, also got pretty good at baking bread.. smoking meat, and canning in the last couple months too. Christ is #1, Diet is #2.. Another thing that has been the primary focus of my life this past year, learning how to worship, pray, and serve Jesus. Edit! My baby girl has been home for 2 weeks now! Shes healthy, smart, and makes me want to slam weights harder at the gym, getting strong to protect her :) Update. Baby girl is 3months old, strong, chubby, and happy! I also went from 148lbs body weight to 175lbs! Been at the gym 4 days a week, Squat 250, Deadlift 250, bench 200... Let's go!!!!

    The only thing missing from this podcast is grace. A real man forgives quickly and shows grace. A real man also embraces grace knowing they will never meet the standard set by God. We can try and try and we should try every day but the standard is Christ and we will never reach it. So the grace and mercy of Christ is an essential part of our gospel that I didn’t hear in this podcast. Edit: I want to add to this a little bit to clarify some things for people. My point in commenting this was that it’s important to fully represent Christ if we are going to at all. We as believers don’t get to pick and choose what we believe or overemphasize the points that fit our lives and make us feel good. It’s easy to focus on a particular aspect of Christ and use it to justify our actions rather than changing our actions to reflect Him as completely as we can. We obviously won’t ever get there but that’s what it means to be sanctified, to become more like Christ. So while they highlighted an important piece of being a god fearing man they left out one of the most crucial pieces that is the center of our Gospel. If God had the attitude many of us do in these comments we’d be roasting for eternity. Graciousness and patience is every bit as manly as strength and righteous aggression. Our primary goal should always be to point people to Christ in everything we do whether it be protecting the innocent or showing mercy to those who don’t deserve it.

    @@burtonjernigan1997 read the Bible first and foremost. Everything about being a GOOD man can be gone in scripture. You don’t need to be some crazy mountain man or quit your job if you work in an office. Love deeply and protect those you love fiercely. Aggression also does not equal masculinity. Controlled righteous aggression does. John Lovell is a great resource on biblical manhood. There is much more to being a good man than being “masculine” that’s a small part of it.

So I am 35 now and still learning what it is to be a man in gods eyes and for myself that it is not toxic or demeaning to myself and people around me. It’s been a rough journey and felt bad at some point because I felt behind tremendously. Now I am making up for it at my own pace and learning.

    I grew a whole new respect for you Mr. Glover as a 21 year old man in this weak ass generation who does his best to follow Jesus Christ and study preparedness, I love that a man of your caliber is having this conversation. I do hope this reaches others in my generation as well as many others because there are a bunch of pussies who allow the mistreatment from our government and stand by while believing that false God's will save them however I also try to spread word in the sense of Biblical masculinity and world knowledge to get ready for WW3 and the second coming now I have reached a small amount of people compared to you but I stand with you and you got a soldier right here ready to learn and fight from Texas stay strong and we support you brother ✊️

    @@ShiniGuraiJoker that’s great. I’m not really criticizing you. I’m criticizing what wfh usually cultivates. You hear what mike says about losing community and losing the ability to talk to each other? People staying in their houses more and more is causing this. I’m not saying it’s an absolute. I’m saying I’ve seen it over and over again that people tend to just stay stuck in their own home with this. You lose something by trying to make your life more efficient and ordering food and groceries online isolating yourself from people more. You missed those interactions by not going out. Socializing skills decrease. As we’ve learned since the internet has gotten bigger, talking online does not transfer to in person conversation. I think that’s abundantly clear with our general feeling in America. Kids go outside less. Everyone goes outside less. That results in what mike is talking about.. less masculine and weaker men. I really don’t think I’m wrong.. humans in general in America have kind of decreased in socialization and total outdoor time. I’m almost positive my social skills have decreased with all the automation. I would bet 90% of everyone else’s has too. The internet does absolutely have good in it but us humans are just lazy. 99% of us abuse it and use it for laziness. We also try to gain efficiency but don’t realize we lose something in the process.. the ability to communicate with each other like humans for 1000s of years have mostly done. This has birthed the toxic online thing you see now. Worse than ever. People depressed in mass and the new generation is statistically the most lonely. Millions of men severely weakened from being chronically online and refusing to go outside and workout.. or to just learn to be men by cultivating in real life experiences. I would say work from home people are interacting less,going outside less, and in general become a much more soft human being. Sensibilities are more fragile from it. Your completely safe in your home where nothing can get you and no one can challenge you. Sensibilities weakened.. why were our grandfathers so damn tough? Friction. Conflict. In general, more challenges cultivated them to have stronger resolves. Much more masculinity about them because of it and the physical labor they endured. I’m not saying they were perfect but we are a far cry from them in terms of toughness and masculinity. Sorry this is way to long of a thing to condense. I’m only just seeing people starting to talk about this. I’ve been internally freaking out about but people are so engrossed in their bubble online that they don’t want to talk about it being a problem. it’s not an attack on you I promise and it’s not just working from home. It’s everything that has to do with being online. But being a fire fighter, a soldier.. typically cultivates tougher more masculine men. Doing something physically and mentally tough in person. I’m not saying it can’t be done.. it just doesn’t typically cultivate it.

I was recently asked to speak at a men’s conference and I heavily touched topics about fatherhood, accountability, being protectors and providers, and when I tell you I was getting dead fish eyes from the vast majority of the audience. Maybe I’m too young to earn the attention and respect of others on these topics, but I don’t think the church has a done a great job even telling men they should care about these things.
