Are you busy for your family, but not with them? In EP3 of Raising Rebels, Joel and Tec get practical about intentional fatherhood—simple one-on-ones, tech-free dinners, car-ride devotions, and purpose-driven parenting. They share real stories (stepping away from coaching, a missed family trip), stats that sting, and faith-first habits you can start today. Pick one small action, make time on purpose, and lead at home. Like, comment, and subscribe to help more dads grow.
