More and more, young men are dropping out of the labor force and withdrawing from leadership at work and in their homes. Today we talk about working hard in our jobs and in our homes to model a strong work ethic and effective leadership to our children.   The work culture has shifted so that most of us can't take our children to work to learn alongside us. It's a challenge for dads to engage in training & discipling the children when they spend a large portion of the day away from the home. This means we have to work harder around the house to create these learning opportunities for our children.   We not only talk about encouraging our children to work hard physically, but also how to disciple and train them spiritually. As Christian men, we need to be able to delegate some of the training to our wives and other teachers, without becoming passive. It's challenging to find a balance between "ruling with an iron fist" and abdicating our responsibilities as fathers. We also talk about how important wives roles are in encouraging husbands to lead well.
