Real Men Connect with Dr. Joe Martin - Christian Men Podcast
Bill Delvaux has been involved in pastoral ministry as a youth minister and church planter, having studied at Duke University and the Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. In 1992, Bill took a position teaching Bible at Christ Presbyterian Academy in Nashville, TN. During that time, he also coached the varsity boys track and cross-country teams. This is where Bill found his quest for the next twenty years: connecting the truths of the Bible to the hearts of high school students. But as he took the quest, he found those same truths connecting to his own heart in unexpected ways. So, he began a new quest, connecting the truths of the Bible to a larger audience. Despite his fear and initial objections, in 2012, he left full-time teaching to begin Landmark Journey Ministries. Bill has been married to his wife, Heidi, for 33 years, and they have two amazing daughters, Abigail and Rachel.

Interview with Bill Delvaux, author of Heroic: The Surprising Path to True Manhood. In this interview, Bill explains how our search for the heroic is found in the person of Jesus Christ.
