## Resource

Where do you go to reclaim true manliness? In this episode, I sit down with Dustin Wright (The Homestead Theologian) to move past the cultural caricatures of grit and black coffee and explore a deeper vision of biblical manhood. We discuss why the "real man" is often a myth, and how the "good man" is defined not by stoicism, but by presence, vulnerability, and sacrifice. Together, we chart a course away from the isolation of the "lone wolf" and toward the example of Jesus, finding that true strength often looks less like a movie hero and more like a father fully present with his family.
