Brant and his wife Carolyn have been married 30 years and have two grown children. Highlights 03:40 Introduction to Brant Hansen 09:50 Brant's message on his radio show is a message of encouragement. Humans are forgetful. We need constant reminders of Jesus and what we are supposed to be doing. 13:50 Why Brant wrote his book, Unoffendable 15:40 We all think our anger is righteous. We aren't taught enough about anger growing up. 21:30 There are constantly things to be angry about, especially when you are constantly on the news and social media. You can be angry and bitter or be different and take action. 24:15 Stop pointing at other people and observe yourself. The way to constantly force yourself into humility and gratitude is through forgiving people. 27:40 The dopamine hit we get from being right or having that victim mentality 29:00 Responding kindly literally lowers our blood pressure. It calms us and changes our hearts. Choose to forgive. 30:30 Social media is almost set up to create anger and offense. It might be best to take a step back from it. 34:00 “What if Christians were known as people that you can't offend?” 38:00 We have to forgive but we also aren't boundary-less pushovers. 40:15 Confronting difficult conversations as a leader 44:00 Forgiveness is freedom. Freedom from the abuse or wrongdoing you may have experienced at the hand of someone else. You have to forgive them in order to let it go. 47:00 How can leaders help those in their congregation that are struggling to forgive? 50:30 “We are displeased with others because we are convinced that God is displeased with us.” Links BrantHansen.com Unoffendable: How Just One Change Can Make All of Life Better The Men We Need: God's Purpose for the Manly Man, the Avid Indoorsman, or Any Man Willing to Show Up Read the TRANSCRIPT of this podcast Watch on YouTube Get 14-day access to the Core Leader Library The Leading Saints Podcast is one of the top independent Latter-day Saints podcasts as part of nonprofit Leading Saints' mission to help Latter-day Saints be better prepared to lead.

The world needs real men. But here's the problem: While we know what men are not supposed to be, it's not clear to us what masculinity looks like when men are at their absolute best. In The Men We Need: God's purpose for the Manly Man, the Avid Indoorsman, or Any Man Willing to Show Up, author and radio host Brant Hansen paints a compelling picture of what men are designed to be: Keepers of the garden.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

In this special bonus episode, Speaker Sprowls talks with author and radio personality Brant Hansen about his book “The Men We Need: God's Purpose for the Manly Man, the Avid Indoorsman, or Any Man Willing to Show Up.” In a culture that portrays men as either dumb and weak or toxic and overbearing, Brant explains the real purpose men were designed to serve. This conversation will inspire men– young and old– to embrace their roles as protectors, charged with defending the vulnerable and creating secure places for others to thrive.
In this episode, we wade into the topic of masculinity. What is masculinity? How are real men supposed to act, and who are they supposed to be? We know toxic masculinity exists, and none of us wants to fall into that category, but millions of men lack a real vision for their lives, so they are left open to all kinds of influences. Because of this confusion, our world is hurting. Listen for a fresh perspective on godly manhood from Brant Hansen. You may find your heart and life changed! As culture seems to deconstruct masculinity, the question left unanswered is, what does it mean to be a man? What, if anything, is uniquely masculine? God's nature is both masculine and feminine, so masculine must refer to something. We must find that beautiful, positive thing called masculinity. Real men are keepers of the garden. We have been given a role to play, just as Adam in the garden was given a role to play. We are still care-takers of the garden. We use whatever we have---skills, talents, temperaments---as we tend our garden. The keeper of the garden protects it. The keeper of the garden is a cultivator and builder of people. Real men take responsibility for their own spiritual life. Emotions can be helpful, but they can also be misleading. Taking responsibility for your spiritual life doesn't mean becoming more emotional; it's about becoming more loyal. God is looking for our loyalty. We are all sinners, but we keep showing up. We fall, but we get back up. Real men are men of action. Men may find anger helpful, believing it helps them get things done. However, anger creates a dangerous environment where the people around us can't feel safe and grow. If we are called to tend to our garden, we must not be a threat to our garden. Anger makes us exactly that. Anger clouds your judgment. We should be reasonable, taking appropriate action against injustice, driven by love and compassion to do the right thing. The world needs better men, and the world needs men who step into the hard work of “tending the garden.” The Men We Need: God's Purpose for the Manly Man, the Avid Indoorsman, or Any Man Willing to Show Up.

Brant Hansen, author of The Men We Need--God's Purpose for the Manly Man, the Avid Indoorsman, or Any Man Willing to Show Up, joins the show today. Hansen, who hosts a morning radio show syndicated on 200+ outlets across the country, writes:"I'm here to answer a simple (but not simplistic) question: what are men supposed to actually do? This book is about a big vision for manhood. We've lacked that vision, and all of us: men--women, and children--are hurting because of it. The vision is this: we men are at our best when we are 'keepers of the garden.'"Hansen--whose voice you may recognize from the MediShare commercials on WFIL :)-- elaborates in the book how just like Adam was charged with being keeper of the Garden of Eden, so men are to provide for and nurture their families first & foremost...and in the process, everyone around benefits as well. He is not against things sometimes associated with being manly (physical strength, outdoors-type activities, etc), but his challenge is to men--starting with himself--to serve the Lord first and care for his wife and children, in whatever ways that needs to happen. Hansen writes in a humble and humorous manner & provides much-needed (and Biblical) perspective.In addition to his writing and radio endeavors, Hansen also works for CURE International (based in PA)--top-notch surgical hospitals run by believers which help kids with treatable conditions and share the gospel in the process.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
