The @jeff_hemmer has written the*best* book on masculinity in a Christian context in print (I've ever read). He's the focus of my podcast this week. It is the most challenging & encouraging book about the masculine journey you'll ever read. #DadsMatter podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/man…
A father & son(15 yr-old) spent 10 months going out for meals to discuss this book. The son shared his experience with me, "Being able to discuss each chapter with my dad has been a wonderful experience, and I hope it has helped me grow as a man." amazon.com/Why-Black-Live…
Father/Son working through this together forced key issues. The father: "We would take turns asking each other the discussion questions. And those questions prompted other questions. I want him to feel the freedom to talk to me as a man and let me know where I can improve."
Fact: @SHAQ is one of the best dads in America. Data: boys that don’t roughhouse with their fathers (grades k-12) are more likely to struggle with addictions(drugs, porn, video games, etc.), lack impulse control, lack the ability to delay gratification, etc. #dadsmatter
If you don’t believe me read the data for yourself. Boys wrestling with their fathers makes the world a better place. Dads who don’t do roughhouse set the most sons up for struggle. amazon.com/Boy-Crisis-Boy…
If you don’t want to read the data. Listen to it. We’d have less sexual assault on college campuses, less teen drug use, teenage boys would struggle grades less, etc. if dads roughhoused more. It’s true.
