How Faith and Forgiveness Unlock True Masculine Power with Jay Cookingham

In this episode of Men of Influence, host Tim Holloway sits down with Jay Cookingham, founder of Strategic Fathering Ministries, to discuss the transformative power of faith, mindset, and servant leadership. With decades of experience as a pastor, father, and mentor, Jay shares his journey of healing, forgiveness, and discovering God as the ultimate Father. From navigating the grief of losing his wife of 37 years to overcoming the challenges of an abusive childhood, Jay provides invaluable insights into building a faith-centered life and leading with purpose. This heartfelt conversation explores what it means to be a man of faith who leads by serving others. Drawing from the example of Jesus, the ultimate servant leader, Jay challenges the traditional views of leadership and calls men to embrace their God-given identities. Together, Tim and Jay unpack the keys to spiritual growth, the freedom found in forgiveness, and how to develop a mindset that reflects God’s goodness in every aspect of life. Key Takeaways • Servant Leadership: True influence comes from serving others, as modeled by Jesus Christ. • Faith & Mindset: Faith isn’t rooted in what God will do, but in trusting who He is. • Healing Journey: Forgiveness is the doorway to freedom and healing from past wounds. • God as Father: Experiencing God as Abba changes everything, giving men identity and purpose. • Emotional Freedom: Grief and lament are not weaknesses but pathways to deeper faith and healing.
