Ben Patrick is a man of faith, a new father, a former Texas high school quarterback, Texas A&M graduate, and someone learning how to become the kind of man his father modeled for him.

In this conversation, Ben shares the story of losing his father Jack to cancer during his senior year of college, the powerful final moments his family experienced in the hospital room, and how that loss strengthened his relationship with God instead of breaking it.

He also opens up about becoming a father exactly two years later, supporting Caitlin through pregnancy, their son Bennett’s scary NICU experience, giving up alcohol and nicotine, and the daily discipline of showing up for the people who need him most.

This episode explores faith, grief, fatherhood, masculinity, family, health, discipline, and the quiet responsibility of becoming a man before you feel ready.
