Whether you're a man navigating your own mental health, a support to someone who is, or simply curious about how we can do better by men, this episode invites you to listen, reflect, and help de-stigmatize men's mental health.

Send us a textHealing The Father Wound Senior Pastor Pastor Keith Stewart June 15, 2025The National Center for Fathering asked troubled teenage daughters, “Where do you go for comfort?” The number one response was music. Number two was girlfriends. Three was television. And Dad? He came in 34th place. The relationship we have with our father can be one of the most formative of all our relationships for good or bad. But when our Dad is absent from the home, addicted, emotionally distant, or even abusive, it leaves a wound that can affect us for the rest of our lives. This Sunday's message is all about how to heal what we are powerless to change. It's a message that prevents the past from continuing to impose itself on the present – a message that can set you free.DISCUSSION QUESTIONS 1. What special memories do you have about your childhood? How did you get along with each of your parents? What were they like? What did you like and dislike about your parents? What were your hurts and disappointments as a child? Did you like yourself as a child? Why or why not? 2. Take some time to look over the chart on the developmental needs of children as it relates to mothers and fathers. It's important to remember that these are generalizations and there are always exceptions to any rule. But in light of this chart, where did you have strong modeling and where were there weaknesses? What did your parents do well? What did they do poorly? Can you see any evidence in your present life and relationships where this has played out for good or bad? 3. Father absence has a dramatic and profound effect on our spiritual life. Have you ever struggled with experiencing God as He reveals Himself to be in His word? Where and how have you struggled? Have you experienced any healing around parental wounds that helped you better connect with God? 4. Do you ever practice positive, Biblical affirmations in your life (which is a form of meditation)? Take some time either during your small group gathering or later at home, to look up as many Scriptures as you can find that describe our new standing in Christ. Write them down and make it your practice this week to read through the entire list at least 5 times a day. 5. Pastor Keith said there are four messages every child needs; I love you, I believe in you, I'm proud of you and I am sorry. Did you hear these messages growing up? What effect did that have on you? Do you regularly communicate these messages to your own children (even as adult children)?

While more Singaporean fathers want to play an active role at home, workplace culture and policy haven’t fully caught up. With only around half of eligible dads taking paternity leave, the reality is that many working fathers face structural and cultural barriers when it comes to being present parents. Dr. Xander Ong, CEO of Centre for Fathering joins the Breakfast Show to explore how far Singapore has come in supporting working dads and how much further we need to go. Are employers ready to offer flexibility and emotional support for fatherhood the way they’ve done for working mothers? What will it take to build truly inclusive family-first workplaces, where both parents are empowered to be caregivers?See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Training Up a Child: Discovering Gifts, Asking Questions, and Fathering with Intentionality In this episode of the Exploring More Podcast, Michael Thompson, SJ Jennings, and Josh Overton invite listeners into a candid and heartfelt conversation about the ongoing journey of fatherhood. Drawing from Proverbs 22:6 and their own lived experiences, they explore the sacred responsibility of training up children—not in a rigid mold, but in alignment with each child's unique personality, giftings, and “bent.” Fatherhood, they reflect, is not about mastery—it's about discovery. Whether it's planning one-on-one adventures, reading books their kids love, or simply asking the right questions at the right time, Michael, SJ, and Josh share how intentional moments of connection become anchors for a child's identity. The episode emphasizes the value of listening deeply, affirming consistently, and staying curious—especially as children grow into their own. The conversation also highlights how a father's story—his wounds, growth, and transformation—inevitably shapes the map he offers his children. From stories of moving day emotions to navigating different personality types, the episode offers both encouragement and practical wisdom for dads walking through every stage of parenting. Ultimately, Michael, SJ, and Josh point to the deeper reality that to father well, a man must be fathered by God. Healing the false self, becoming more self-aware, and leaning into community are all part of the ongoing work of fatherhood. This episode is a reminder that while parenting is hard, no man is meant to do it alone. We hope you enjoy this episode and invite you to connect with us!

Fatherhood and the Healing Journey: Reconciliation, Empathy, and Presence In this heartfelt episode of the Exploring More Podcast, Michael Thompson, Josh Overton, and SJ Jennings take listeners into the complex and sacred terrain of fatherhood. Through honest conversation and personal stories, they explore how generational wounds, busy lives, and missed moments can shape our parenting—and how empathy and reconciliation can transform it. As Josh shares his experience coaching his son Judah and revisiting conversations with his son Steven, the episode paints a vivid picture of the power of a father's presence—not just physically, but emotionally and spiritually. Michael and SJ reflect on the ways a father's understanding of his own story, including that of his parents and grandparents, plays a vital role in the healing process. The conversation moves between themes of masculine identity, parenting sons vs. daughters, and the shift from dictating to listening. With warmth and humility, the hosts highlight the importance of addressing past wounds—even the ones we don't remember—and choosing empathy over control. Through their stories, they invite every father to consider the lifelong invitation to be a safe place for his children. Reconciliation isn't about fixing the past—it's about offering new love in the present. Whether it's through a conversation, a moment of shared laughter, or simply showing up differently, the journey of fatherhood becomes a path of growth for both parent and child. We hope you enjoy this episode and invite you to connect with us!

Fathering Through the Stages: Presence, Healing, and the Power of a Dad's Yes In this episode of the Exploring More Podcast, Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings step into the sacred and strategic role of fatherhood—unpacking what it means to guide children through the stages of growth with intention, love, and grace. From boyhood to beloved son, explorer to warrior, and eventually king and elder sage, each stage of a child's journey asks a father different questions: Do you see me? Do you love what you see? Will you walk with me? Michael and SJ explore how a father's response—through presence, time, and affirming words—can either fuel a child's identity or deepen their wounds. The conversation highlights the power of modeling a real, intimate relationship with God. Drawing from personal experiences, parenting wins and do-overs, and biblical truths like Proverbs 22:6, the hosts remind us that good fathering is less about perfection and more about orientation. When a dad is oriented—anchored in God's love and aware of his influence—he can lead his children with clarity and strength. Listeners will hear practical strategies for parenting: from playing games and navigating emotions to recognizing when wounds have been left unaddressed—and going back to make things right. Michael and SJ also use helpful metaphors, like building the right "boats and charts" for the uncharted waters of parenting, urging dads to be intentional rather than reactive. This episode is an invitation to every father to show up, make course corrections, and step more deeply into the role God has entrusted to them—not out of pressure, but out of love. We hope you enjoy this episode and invite you to connect with us!

“As the father goes, so goes the family. As the family goes, so goes the nation.” Join Rick, as he equips men to lead with clarity, conviction, and courage—rooted in God's Word. From church attendance to conversations on culture, this podcast tackles the spiritual challenges fathers face today.

Dads, it's important to be approachable when your child(ren) need you. Sometimes, we think we're doing our best, but a few small adjustments can make a big difference in how open and available we seem. In this episode, Rick shares valuable tips to help you enhance your fathering and create a stronger connection with your kids!

Every dad has expectations when a baby is on the way. Those expectations include elements of athleticism, attractiveness, brilliance, and greatness. This image dads hold in their imagination of their coming child is normal but it is not always true.   Randy Hain, author, and Founder and President of Serviam Partners, joins me to talk about fathering a child with special needs, specifically autism. Randy's perspective on this will challenge and uplift you.   Randy shares his thoughts on dealing with blaming yourself for your child's condition, managing anger, the importance of community, planning for the future, and the joys associated with a child with special needs.   Check out Randy's book, Special Children, Blessed Fathers - https://amzn.to/4iQy8e6   Other books by Randy: Practical Virtue - https://amzn.to/3FJowTG Becoming a More Thoughtful Leader - https://amzn.to/3FUc9Ec Being Fully Present - https://amzn.to/423PcG7   —   Get your FREE 7-day devotional download: https://fatheringourfuture.com/2025/03/22/free-7-day-devotional/   Get your copy of the new devotional for dads, Following Our Father: https://shop.ingramspark.com/b/084?params=VA6KP8OJ9Nh6EJM8xkhLDg1exkXKTtM9kswBjBoKxmD (Amazon options: https://amzn.to/427aK4L)   Get your free gift, a copy of Cut The Crap (E-book): https://fatheringourfuture.com/2024/08/04/free-download-for-new-dads/   MERCH: https://fatheringourfuture.printify.me/products   Become a financial partner with Fathering Our Future and make a direct impact on dads: https://fatheringourfuture.com/support/

Some days I wear a shirt and tie, because, well, that's kind of appropriate for the meetings I'm going to have that day. Now, you go home a little later and get into jeans and an old shirt. Why? Well, because I don't want to do all the work I'm going to be doing there in, you know, my dress up clothes. It will be appropriate for the work I have to do there. Now, when I go to a wedding in a few weeks, I'll dress up for that. I'll get in my very best. When I go to the beach, No, I won't do that. I won't wear what I wear to the wedding. See, I change my clothes for the occasion just like you do. There is something I don't change no matter what the occasion - my skin. I change my clothes; I always have the same skin. I'm Ron Hutchcraft and I want to have A Word With You today about "All Day Righteousness." Our word for today from the Word of God comes from 1 Corinthians 10, and I'm going to read verse 31. "So whether you eat or drink, or whatever you do, do it all for the glory of God." That's an interesting verse. What Paul's saying here is that living for Christ is so practical that you can even do it while you're eating or drinking; having lunch, having breakfast. It's that kind of practical thing. A couple of Sundays ago I had preached at a church about giving God your best instead of giving Him just your leftovers. And a man came up to me very sincerely and said, "Ron, I really do want to give God my best, but no matter how much I try to do for Him, I feel like I'm never doing enough. You know, I've got my job, and I've got my family, and I've got a lot of other things, and I feel like I'm just never doing enough for Him." Well, as we talked, I began to realize that enough meant for him doing more spiritual things. And that isn't primarily what the Lord is looking for. He wants to make more things you're already doing spiritual; not have you do more spiritual things. Our problem is that we reduce our Christ-life to a compartment. We say, "Well, let's see. Here's my money, here's my friends, here's my family, here's my job, here's my recreation. Oh, wait, here's a compartment I have available. Yeah, that's for Jesus. I'll just write in Jesus there and now I've got my Jesus compartment." Jesus is King of Kings, Lord of Lords. He is not going to be a compartment. He doesn't fit in a compartment. He wants to be in all the compartments; not have one of His own. He wants to be the Lord of all those practical areas. So, you're not adding a list of spiritual things to do. You're letting Christ make the things you already do His things. So you drive unselfishly for example. You drive to the glory of God. You use your car to help others. You shop for Him. Maybe walking into that grocery store and trying to bring some joy and some love into the otherwise dull life of a checkout girl. Who knows? Colossians 3:17 picks up the same theme when it says, "And whatever you do, whether in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus." And then it goes on to talk about what kind of wife you are, being a husband to the glory of God. It talks about obeying your parents, and as you're doing it saying to the Lord, "This is for You, Jesus." Fathering in positive ways that don't tear your kids down. It talks about employees working with all their heart as if Jesus were their boss. He is. Your relationship with Christ isn't just some set of spiritual clothes you put on to do spiritual work, to go to spiritual meetings and then take off. It's skin that you carry with you into every area of your life. Living for Christ is a style that you carry with you all day, everywhere, like skin.

In this episode of the Celebrate Kids podcast, host Dr. Kathy explores the unique and vital roles that mothers and fathers play in children's development. Drawing on a recent study from the University of Leeds, the discussion highlights how a father's involvement positively influences educational outcomes while a mother's engagement enhances cognitive behavior and social skills. The episode addresses the implications of these findings in the context of diverse family structures, considering how to communicate with children about having friends with two moms or two dads. Tune in for valuable insights on the distinct contributions of both parents in fostering children's growth.
