Dad Tired

The Meaning of Present and Sacrificial Fatherhood| 364


Listen Later

Jerrad shares a personal story that leads into a powerful teaching on what it means to live a crucified life as a dad. He shares the difference between just showing up and truly leading your family in the Spirit. This is a call to die to pride, ego, and selfish ambition, to become  a dad who mirrors Christ, not just in presence but in posture.


What You'll Hear:

  • The Galatians 2 confrontation between Paul and Peter
  • What it means to be a present and crucified father
  • The difference between cultural goodness and spiritual surrender
  • Learning to take your frustration and ego to Gethsemane
  • How daily practices like prayer, Scripture meditation, and fasting shape crucified living
  • Raising children from a place of humility, not just duty

Tune in to reflect on the kind of father your kids will remember.
