The Ortho Male
by James Newcomb
The Ortho Male explores what it means to be remade, not self-made. We talk about faith, discipline, marriage, work, fatherhood, sacrifice, temptation, strength, humility, and the difficult inner work required to become a man worthy of trust. Trust from community. Trust from the Church. This podcast will not do any work for you. It will not flatter you. It will not excuse your laziness, resentment, addiction, or fear. But if you are willing to give up the facade of invincibility, submit yourself to God, and take responsibility for your life and those who depend on you, this show may become part of your formation. The Ortho Male: Not Self-Made. Remade in Christ.

Tomorrow is Soon Enough
In a shadowed realm beyond time, a weary ruler of darkness summons his closest advisors to solve an ancient problem: mankind’s stubborn resistance to corruption.As each proposal is tested and dismissed, the council moves toward a revelation more dangerous than wealth, power, or open vice, a temptation so ordinary that most men never recognize it until it has already begun to claim them.Follow The Ortho Male at orthomale.com

First Follow. Then Lead. Then Get Out of the Way.
What if most of the “alpha male” language flooding the internet is nothing more than codified insecurity?In Episode 1 of The Ortho Male, we begin by confronting the counterfeit version of masculinity that dominates so much online content: dominance, control, status, conquest, leverage, and the constant need to prove strength.But Christian masculinity is not the religious version of alpha-male content. It is not ego baptized in incense.The Orthodox man is not self-made. He is remade.This episode lays the foundation for the entire show: First follow. Then lead. Then get out of the way.A man must first submit himself to Christ before he can lead anyone well.Leadership is not domination. It is not control. It is not getting your way under the cover of religious language.Christian leadership is cruciform. It takes the shape of the Cross.And after a man learns to follow and lead, he must learn to get out of the way, remembering that his wife, children, home, and community belong ultimately to God.This is where The Ortho Male begins: Stripped of Self. Remade in Christ.In This Episode: The alpha male as codified insecurityChristian masculinity vs. online masculinity cultureWhy obedience comes before leadershipDominion vs. submission to ChristWhy authority begins with repentanceThe home as responsibility, not egoGetting out of the way so God can workThe meaning of Eksedysan MeWhy men are called to be stripped of self and remade in ChristThe central claim of this first episode is simple: Christian masculinity does not begin with domination.It begins with obedience.First follow. Then lead. Then get out of the way.#TheOrthoMale #OrthodoxChristianity #ChristianMasculinity #OrthodoxMen #Repentance #ChristianLeadership #Masculinity #EasternOrthodox #StrippedOfSelf #RemadeInChrist
