In Defense of Dads: "The Patriarchy," Hollywood, and the Biblical Role of Men

from Chasing the Sun · host Abigail Lawson

In this father-daughter episode, we’re making a case for something culture seems increasingly uncomfortable defending: men. From sitcoms to movies like Barbie, modern Hollywood often portrays fathers as hopeless and hapless. At the same time, conversations about “the patriarchy” have reshaped how many people view masculinity.So what is the biblical role of a man? And why does strong fatherhood matter now more than ever?This isn’t about dominance. It’s about responsibility. It’s not about control - it’s about sacrificial leadership.This is our defense of dads.
