Episode 128: What every Dad needs from his Family, Church, and Brothers in Christ With Shane Winnings

This month, we're turning the spotlight on our Papa Bears—and what better way to kick it off than with Shane Winnings, the new CEO of Promise Keepers! In this episode, we dive into Shane’s powerful testimony—from military life and law enforcement to full-time ministry—and his heart for helping men stand firm in their God-given identity. We talk about the challenges facing men today, the spiritual attacks on biblical masculinity, and how the church (and us mamas!) can partner in equipping and encouraging the men in our lives. Shane shares real, practical insight on discipleship, marriage, and how community can restore purpose and fight back against isolation. So grab your mug and buckle in—this one’s a rally cry for strong, godly men and the families who stand behind them!
