Seth Troutt is the teaching pastor at Ironwood Church in Phoenix and holds a doctorate focused on digital technology, Generation Z, and gender identity. In this conversation, he shares his powerful "masculinity pyramid" framework and reveals how God transformed him from an arrogant high school athlete into a humble pastor through painful but necessary humiliation. The episode tackles controversial topics like TRT abuse among Christian men and offers biblical alternatives to toxic masculinity culture.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

1. True masculinity starts with humility - recognizing you are not God
2. Toxic masculinity is often the absence of virtue, not excess of it
3. TRT creates psychoactive changes that damage relationships and character
4. Passive men cause as much relational damage as aggressive ones
5. The masculinity pyramid: humility, discipline, responsibility, chivalry
6. Personal transformation requires receiving correction from loving mentors
