Education
In his first letter to the Corintians, St. Paul said, “When I was a child, I used to talk as a child, think as a child, reason as a child; when I became a man, I put aside childish things.” Welcome to episode eight of the St. Thomas More Academy podcast. Today, Dr. Jake Noland, our STMA Dean of Faculty and Athletic Director, joins our Headmaster, Deacon Brad Watkins, for a conversation specifically about the formation of boys and young men, and what some are calling, "The Boy Crisis." They discuss thoughts about how we got here, the challenges boys and young men face, and the critical role positively enriching father's play in their son's (and daughter's) lives. As always, we thank you for this download and taking the time to listen. We hope this episode proves helpful. We only ask in return that you pray for our entire school community and our mission.
