Feminized World, Masculine Faith: Reclaiming Dominion Under Christ

What does it mean to be a man in a culture that doesn’t even know what a woman is? In this episode, Associate Pastor Brent Madding joins Brandon and Nick to tackle one of the most urgent crises of our time: the collapse of biblical manhood and womanhood. From the created order in Genesis to the redemptive model of Christ, Brent lays out God’s design for masculinity, femininity, and dominion—starting in the home and extending to the church and culture. You’ll learn the 3 W’s of biblical manhood (Work, Word, Wife), how passivity and tyranny distort male leadership, and why biblical masculinity is the antidote to feminism—not by swinging back to macho posturing, but by modeling fortitude, gravitas, and meekness after Christ Himself. 🔗 Referenced Sermon: “Biblical Manhood & Womanhood” by Brent Madding https://www.sermonaudio.com/sermons/92625135132305 📚 Brent’s Book Recommendations for Men (Add your affiliate links in the spaces below) What He Must Be If He Wants to Marry My Daughter – Voddie Baucham 👉 https://amzn.to/4iugwFh Raising Men, Not Boys – Mike Fabarez 👉 https://amzn.to/4pwTZdg It’s Good to Be a Man – Michael Foster 👉 https://amzn.to/3Y10dpW Masculine Christianity – Zachary M.
