In this episode, Brian Doyle shares what it was like to parent through the unimaginable. After losing his wife to cancer at age 54, Brian had to navigate his own grief while guiding his teenage and young adult kids through theirs. His story will challenge you to keep your eyes on the future, disciple your kids with purpose, and take initiative to invest in the dads around you.   TAKEAWAYS: Instead of avoiding grief, learn to walk through it in a healthy way so your sorrow can eventually lead to joy. If you want your kids to follow Christ, you have to show them what that looks like in your everyday life. You're not raising kids; you're launching disciples. No one else can do what God designed you as a man to do. The time you invest in younger dads today can equip them for the challenges they'll face decades from now.   GUEST Brian Doyle is the Founder and President of Iron Sharpens Iron and serves as the National Director of the ISI Ministry Network. The mission of Iron Sharpens Iron is to equip churches to train men for spiritual leadership in the home, church and community.  #DadAwesome #christiandad #dadlife #parenting #dadpodcast #fatherhood   Links mentioned:  Send a Voice Message to DadAwesome Apply to join the next DadAwesome Accelerator Cohort: Email awesome@dadawesome.org   Subscribe to DadAwesome Messages: Text the word “Dad” to (651) 370-8618 Iron Sharpens Iron

Joy isn't just about feeling good. It's your secret weapon for raising resilient kids and showing up as a healthy, loving dad. In this episode, Chris Coursey unpacks the brain science behind joy and shares practical strategies you can use to stay calm and connected, whether it's your own emotions flaring or your child's.   Key takeaways:   Joy is built through connection, while happiness depends on your circumstances. God wired your brain for emotions, so it's important to know what helps you return to your relational, peaceful self.  Validation and comfort sets the stage for effective correction. Building joy helps you and your kids navigate life's challenges with more resilience.   Guest bio:   Chris Coursey is the President of THRIVEtoday. For nearly 25 years he has been developing and practicing brain-based solutions to make relationships work.
