The Stephen Mansfield Podcast

No novelist has influenced Stephen as did Pat Conroy, author of moving, mystical tales like The Great Santini, Prince of Tides, The Water is Wide and Lords of Discipline. In this tribute, Stephen describes how Conroy’s life, themes and literary voice have shaped him.

There is such a thing as "righteous anger." We should fight against injustice every step of the way—and with zeal! Yet what permeates today's politics is "easy" anger, that is, simply looking for a scapegoat and inciting anger for anger’s sake. Whether on the right or left, most popular talking points are more like finger-pointing. In today's episode, Stephen asks us to do away with this kind of useless animosity. Strong leaders lead—and rise above unrighteous anger.

While the news cycle is consumed with Donald Trump and the latest happenings in the presidential race, there is another story surfacing in headlines.  Men, prominent and accomplished men, are having extra-marital affairs in increasing numbers. They are destroying their families, their careers, and, often, the noble causes they have devoted themselves to through the years.

Last year, Stephen recorded a podcast entitled “Men and Affairs.” It was widely discussed and helped a great many men avoid the trap of their own inordinate longings. We offer that podcast again this week, since we are eager to help men and those who love them transcend the ticking time bombs of extra-marital affairs.
