Sacred Gentlemen
Host: Steve Baumgartner Founder of the SACRED Code & Leader of the Sacred Gentleman Movement There is a rising movement of men who refuse to remain silent, passive, or spiritually disconnected. A generation of husbands and fathers is waking up to the truth that the world needs strong men again. Men of conviction. Men of faith. Men who lead with courage, presence, and purpose. The Sacred Gentleman Podcast is the voice of that movement. Many men look successful from the outside, yet privately feel empty on the inside. They feel disconnected from God, unsure how to lead their homes, distant from their wives, and overwhelmed by the pressure to hold everything together. Culture encourages men to shrink, to soften, and to lose themselves. God calls them to rise. This podcast exists to guide men into that rise. Host Steve Baumgartner leads men through the SACRED Code, a spiritual and masculine formation path designed to rebuild the man from the inside out. · Sanctify the Man · Align with the Call · Craft the Vision · Rebuild the Temple · Engage in Brotherhood · Deploy the Legacy The Sacred Gentleman Movement began with Fire Forged Leader; a message focused on discipline and ownership. That message awakened many men. But God began to refine the mission. What started as physical discipline became spiritual awakening. What started as leadership coaching became masculine discipleship. Fire Forged Leader grew into something deeper, more sacred, and more aligned with God’s design for men. It became the Sacred Gentleman Movement. This movement is not about hype or motivation. It is about transformation. It is about restoring biblical masculinity, rebuilding the home, strengthening marriages, reclaiming fatherhood, anchoring identity in Christ, and forging men into leaders who carry generational impact. Each episode blends Scripture, practical frameworks, one-on-one coaching tone, personal stories, and tactical steps that equip men to lead with spiritual clarity and masculine steadiness. Topics include: · Biblical masculinity and spiritual leadership · Marriage, intimacy, and emotional presence · Fatherhood and generational impact · Breaking limiting beliefs through biblical mindset work · Fitness, discipline, and honoring the body as a temple · Spiritual warfare explained in practical, grounded terms · Purpose, calling, and mission-driven direction · Brotherhood, accountability, and masculine refinement · Legacy as a husband, father, leader, and man of God Who this movement is for: Men who feel the pressure of life but know they were made for more. Men who want to lead with strength, presence, and wisdom. Men who want to build a home that thrives, a marriage that deepens, a family that follows their leadership, and a legacy that stands long after they are gone. This is a movement for husbands, fathers, Christian leaders, entrepreneurs, and every man who senses that God is calling him higher. If you are ready to live by a sacred standard, to walk with God, to lead boldly, and to become the man your family and your generation needs, this podcast is your entry point into the Sacred Gentleman Movement. Welcome to The Sacred Gentleman Podcast. Welcome to the movement. Welcome to the Masculine Reformation.
