Are America's Men Really Okay? | The Crisis of Fatherhood & Masculinity

Javier & Shannan Labrador Season 5 Episode 75

In this video, we dive into a growing crisis facing men in America—especially fathers. Since the pandemic, there's been a noticeable rise in passivity, apathy, and fear of commitment among men, particularly when it comes to marriage and family.

We discuss the spiritual and societal challenges men are facing today, the epidemic of fatherlessness, and the collapse of commitment to family. But there’s also hope—many voices are rising to call men back to purpose, leadership, and authentic masculinity.
