Masculine Maturity (Ep. 26)
from Modern Man Hosted by Modern Man Podcast
Puberty happens to every man. Maturity doesn't. This week Brad, Noah, and Sam wrestle with what masculine maturity actually is — and why it has nothing to do with certainty, competence, or age, and everything to do with two trainable traits. What you'll get: • The two-trait test one of America's largest missionary organizations uses to screen candidates — coachability and resilience — and how to audit yourself against it • Why 'the good father by necessity fails' — and what separates men who stay in the failure from men who quit • The 'two births' of fatherhood: why you can't will yourself into being a dad, and what your kids teach you if you let them • Zamboni parenting — smoothing every problem off your child's ice — and why it manufactures immaturity • The talk Sam had with his young son about body safety, and why uncomfortable conversations are the job • Pinocchio as a manual for modern men: power and pleasure without character turn you into a jackass • The maturity roadmap in 1 John 2 — children, young men, fathers — and where you are on it Send it to the one man in your life who's still waiting until he feels ready.
