Frederic Gray is a national speaker, author, and the founder of the Fathers of Faith and Daughters of Excellence Retreat in Tampa, Florida. He's a husband and a father of five (5) (2 boys, 3 girls, from ages 12 to 1) with one more on the way, and he's passionate about teaching fathers how to win the hearts of their children. He's also the author of “How to Win Your Children's Heart Using God's Word.” To connect with Frederic Gray, you can visit his websites at either: http://www.FredericGray.com or http://wwww.FatherDaughterRetreat.com. Here are the steps Frederic outlined for us: When to spank: When they clearly understand the rules they broke and your expectations of them. Make sure they understand that the most important thing to do is obey God. Find a private place to spank them. Speak super gentle to them and without anger. Have them tell you what they were supposed to do, but didn't. Ask them: "Did you obey Daddy?" Ask them: "Did you obey God?" Share a verse from the Bible on discipline (Ex. Prov. 13:24). Ask them: "What is God telling me to do?" (child: to spank me) Ask them: "If I don't spank you, am I obeying God?" Tell them: "I want to obey God, because I love you and I love God." Ask them (again):"Do you know why I'm going to give you a spanking?" Pray with them BEFORE you spank them (while holding them close). Use the rod/paddle (NOT your hand) when spanking your child. Hit them only on the bottom (let it hurt, but don't damage them). Lay with them afterwards to comfort them and affirm them. ---------------------------------    If you want to help us transform the lives of even MORE MEN for God's glory, please take a minute to leave us a helpful REVIEW and SHARE this podcast with any man you know who's in need of help and hope and is hurting.”  And to make sure you don't miss a podcast episode, as well as contest give-a-ways, special announcements, and much more, make sure you "Stay Connected" by visiting us at https://station.page/realmen to join our online community of podcast listeners.   Talk with Dr. Joe 1-on-1: Are you tired and stuck? Want to go to get your faith, marriage, family, career and finances back on track?  Then maybe it's time you got a coach.

Drawing from over 20 years of mentoring and counseling, they speak honestly about the most common questions young husbands ask Zane after the honeymoon is over.

Whether you're newly married, walking through a tough season, or mentoring others, this episode is packed with timeless truths and actionable tips.   8 PRACTICAL TIPS FOR YOUR MARRIAGE: 1. Expect normal, not perfect. 2. Marriage is not easy. 3. Pray together—out loud! 4. Your wife is not your Savior, and you are NOT hers. 5.

Episode Title: “Let's Be Honest: Top 5 Fitness Excuses (and What to Do Instead)” Episode Summary: We all make excuses — even us. But in this episode, we're calling them out.

Whether it's about working out, staying accountable, or dialing in your nutrition, this episode is your honest wake-up call (with some laughs along the way). What You'll Hear in This Episode:  Top Exercise Excuses “I don't have time.” (Hint: you do — it's about priorities.) “I need to get in shape before I join a gym.” “I'm too tired after work.” “I don't know what to do.” Strategy: time-blocking, morning workouts, working out as a couple, and using a coach (hello, SISU!).  Accountability Excuses “I'll start Monday.” “I just need motivation.” “I'm not consistent.” Truth Bomb: You don't rise to the level of your motivation. You fall to the level of your systems.  Real Talk: Marriage & Excuses What happens when one spouse is all-in and the other is dragging their feet How to lovingly challenge your partner without starting World War III The best excuses we've made to each other — and how we turned them around Key Takeaway: “Excuses are normal — but not helpful.

Tag us in your next couple's walk or workout, or DM us your story — we love hearing from you. Don't forget to subscribe, leave a review, and share this episode with a couple who needs a little push.
