Why So Many Men Feel Lost—and How to Find the Path Back | David Savage

from The Valiant Forge

Why are so many men confused about who they're supposed to be? David Savage joins Mark Osborne to talk about biblical manhood, pride, isolation, renewing the mind, mentorship, and finding your way back to God's path.Why do so many men feel lost?David Savage believes confusion is one of the biggest crises facing men today. Without a clear understanding of who they are, what they're responsible for, and where they're going, men can drift away from their commitments, relationships, community, and faith.David joins Mark Osborne to talk about The Savage Path—his backpacking-inspired metaphor for following God's will. They explore what happens when a man gets off the trail, why wounded men often isolate themselves, how pride prevents men from asking for help, and why Christian brotherhood matters.The conversation also explores renewing the mind, guarding what we allow into our thoughts, fatherhood, mentorship, intergenerational relationships, biblical manhood, and David's own experiences with divorce, failure, faith, and surrender.David eventually shares why he's walking away from another prestigious appointment and choosing instead to put his whole “chip pile” into ministry: “I'm all in, and I'm going to be obedient to God.” David is the author of The Savage Path: A Memoir of Modern Masculinity, host of Wrestling with the Inner Man, and founder of Savage Path Ministries.The Savage Path
