TAYLOR CAVANAUGH | Crack the Whip or Pull the Reigns?
Every man is different. Some men are intense and need to learn how to pull back on the reigns. Others are passive and need to learn how to crack the whip. My guest today, former Navy SEAL and French Foreign Legionnaire is a man who more closely resonates with the former but understands the implications of both. Today, Taylor and I talk about how and why men self-sabotage themselves, the importance of internal vs. external validation, how a “Battle Rhythm” helps a man maximize his performance, why success doesn’t “flash,” it “glows,” and why every man is searching for inner peace and clarity.

DOUGLAS WILSON | Bold Men. Hard Truths. No Apologies.
Is there a clear and deliberate agenda against men and boys in culture today? Or, is it simply a byproduct of the relative ease of modern times. My guest today, Pastor Douglas Wilson, makes the case that it’s a combination of both and, more accurately, than “modern times,” a result of “wealthy times.” And, if that is the case, what should men do for ourselves and for the future of our children and this world? Today, Doug and I talk about rebuilding strength and order in our lives and instilling it in our boys, how exactly men can step up against the lunacy and degeneracy we see in modern culture, why men make inferior women and vice versa, why reality calls for us, as men, to reckon with the dangerous times in which we live, and why masculinity cannot (and, should not) be legislated away. SHOW HIGHLIGHTS 00:00 - Introduction and Welcome 01:03 - Softness in Society and Masculinity 03:36 - Exploitation in a Soft Society 04:17 - The Need for Righteous and Hard Men 06:30 - Hard Times Create Strong Men 07:58 - Men's Role as Protectors 09:16 - Historical Context of Church Femininity 14:53 - Corporate vs. Individualized Worship 17:51 - Egalitarianism and Traditional Roles 20:27 - Reclaiming Masculinity in Culture 22:57 - Preaching for Truth vs. Consensus 24:30 - Learning Masculinity Through Imitation 28:54 - Single Mothers and Masculine Role Models 31:19 - Balancing Risk and Safety in Raising Boys 37:06 - The Impact of a Pampered Society 41:49- The Decline of Risk-Taking in Men 46:18 - Male-Female Dynamics and Patriarchy 53:29 - Masculinity as Sacrificial Responsibility 57:13 - Promoting Man Rampant and Other Works Battle Planners: Pick yours up today!
