In this honest and gritty conversation, Shane Winnings and Jerrad talk about the ache behind every man’s desire to be a good dad—and why good intentions still leave so many guys feeling like they’re failing.

Shane shares his own story of growing as a father while leading a national movement to fight fatherlessness. They unpack how wounds from our own dads often fuel our desire to be better, but why motivation alone won’t cut it. From military discipline to spiritual revival, from being physically present to emotionally absent, this conversation gets real fast.

They also dive into Shane’s bold new campaign Make Dads Great Again, what’s sparking revival in Gen Z men, how fatherhood videos are breaking algorithms and breaking men open, and why the greatest threat to your calling might be your unchecked hustle.


What You’ll Learn:

  • Why proximity doesn’t equal presence in your home
  • How to stop “tinkering” and start truly engaging your kids
  • The real reason father wounds hurt so deeply
  • How to love your family in the way they actually receive love
  • Why being faithful at home matters more than platform or ministry success
  • How revival might already be happening—just not the way we expect

Mentioned in This Episode:

  • Shane’s viral Make Dads Great Again campaign
  • Wesley Huff’s surprising influence on Joe Rogan
  • Why Gen Z men are leading the way back to church
  • The trap of high-output, low-impact fatherhood
  • How to heal the pain that productivity can’t cover
