Former Navy Seal Garrett Unclebach and I explore the themes of masculinity, faith, and purpose. We discuss the misconceptions surrounding masculinity in Christianity, the current state of men in society, and the importance of raising standards within the church. Garrett emphasizes the need for men to find their purpose and undergo transformation, while also addressing the over-feminization in society and the church.

The conversation concludes with a call for men to pursue authentic manhood and true purpose beyond mere survival. We'll explore the profound themes of purpose, faith, and community. They discuss the importance of living for something greater than material wealth, the dangers of pursuing success without a true sense of purpose, and the transformative power of community among men. The dialogue emphasizes that true purpose is rooted in the heart and is a way of living rather than a mere title or job. We also reflect on biblical examples, such as Joseph, to illustrate how dreams can lead to fulfilling a greater purpose. Ultimately, the conversation encourages listeners to embrace their unique paths and to seek community that fosters growth and transformation.
