From his books to his “man-formation” training videos, Joe offers the resources to help men go from “good” to “great,” God’s way. In this episode, Dr. Martin and I discussed why men are frustrated, confused, or discouraged and feel they don't have adequate resources to be the best husbands and fathers they can be. His story of redemption from abject poverty, abandonment, abuse, and addiction has inspired him to mentor, support, and multiply men who desire to change the world for Christ. Dr. Martin told me about how men get caught up in superficial definitions of manhood that cause them to view themselves as less-than if they don't measure up by those worldly standards. However, when men learn of their true potential, and follow the right manly examples, manhood is so much more than those superficial standards!
