SUMMARY OF TODAY’S PODCAST

Being (or becoming) the spiritual leader in the home is not an easy task. In my own early days of marriage, it was a struggle for me to even know what the term meant! In all my time mentoring men, counseling couples, and working with people, I’ve learned that I’m not alone. To be told to be the spiritual leader in the home is an intimidating thing to most men.

In this episode of the podcast, I’m going to try to deconstruct the fear a bit, to discover what lies under the surface, and I want to give you some tips regarding things that helped me to get over the hump of hesitancy so that I could truly become the spiritual leader in my home. You don’t have to have a Bible degree or be “super spiritual.” The average guy can do it.
