“Four essential elements of Biblical manhood are joy, community, accountability, and identity,” says Alan Hahn, the founder and CEO of Iron Academy, a private, all-male Christian school for boys ages 6-12. Alan’s school focuses on forging these boys into the men God created them to be by teaching them essential life skills, such as leadership, and by providing rites of passage that strengthen their sense of healthy masculinity. He discusses the use of thriving spiritual formation, helpful correction, and joyful discipleship in a loving and trusted environment - elements that cultivate a young man’s identity and challenge him to work harder and achieve more. In a society that is starving for the truth, Christian men can be a countercultural light in the darkness by becoming all that God created them to be.

TAKEAWAYS

Men and fathers of all ages can learn from Alan’s book, The Iron Academy: Forging Young Men Who Fight For The King

Spiritual formation does not happen without healthy shame or positive correction

A rite of passage requires separation from ‘normal’ life and the administration of some kind of test

Leadership training is a key element of forging young boys into men

Mary welcomes Dr. Chris Rupe to talk about that infamous graphic depicting the linear march of ape-to-human that billions know, or accept as, the story of the evolution of mankind. “March of Progress”, as the mural is named, has only been around since 1965 and yet generations of students were force-fed this simplistic view of humans and there is no “unseeing” it, even if a picture is worth 1000 (lying, fake, fraudulent, hoax-worthy) words. We chat with Chris about how the theory of evolution is stalled out – if not going backwards)- over bones and fossils. Specifically transitional bones, because if we can’t find any layers of ape-to-human proof in the form of fossils, what now? Scientists like to think evolution is not merely a theory but also not an ideology, but we are going to take some time to clear all that up. A fascinating hour with someone who has thought through transitional species, and author of “Contested Bones”.
