Ep. 141 - The Man Who Was Wounded by His Father: The Father's Day That Changes Everything Series Part 2

Some men didn’t just grow up without a father.  They grew up being wounded by one. All this week on I Know a Guy we are preparing our hearts for Father's Day on Sunday.  Today we’re talking about the impact of abusive, controlling, or absent fathers—and how those wounds follow us into adulthood. Into our relationships. Into our identity. Into how we show up as men. But also this: What does it actually look like to heal? Not minimize it. Not ignore it. But face it - and move forward. This might be the episode you didn’t know you needed.   My new book, "The Father Eclipse: How Your Earthly Father Shaped Your Identity—and How to See God Clearly Again," is available now on Amazon—designed as a short, powerful read to help men move from hiding to living as a beloved son.
