MARK DRISCOLL | Act Like a Man

Ryan Michler
About this episode

If you’re paying attention even in the slightest, you know there is a clear and deliberate agenda to undermine and de-value men and the role they play in society. It’s crucial that we, as men, remain vigilant in the knowledge of that and, more importantly, continue to show up powerfully for those we wish to lead and serve.

My guest today, Mark Driscoll, has been doing this for decades specifically through his ministry of Christ. We talk about whether or not men are the problem in society, the balance between fearless courage and loving kindness, why submitting to proper authority does not make us weaker men, the key archetypes of masculinity, Christian weakness, and why curiosity will you put you on a path to becoming a better man.

SHOW HIGHLIGHTS (00:00) - Episode Intro (00:42) - Men, Masculinity, and Convictions (07:23) - The Nature of God and Humanity (19:16) - Navigating Faith, Authority, and Hope (25:52) - Discussion on Faith and Humanity (34:50) - Exploring Fatherhood and Authority in Society (49:07) - Erosion of Masculinity in Society (01:00:26) - Encouraging Courage in Men (01:07:00) - Masculinity, Motives, and Mentorship
