Parenting With Hope: Melissa Kruger FamilyLife Today® podcast

25:22

Masculinity doesn't need a rebrand; it needs to be redefined. Author Brant Hansen explores how traditional ideas of manhood often fall short, especially for young men, and unpacks a powerful alternative: the concept of men as "keepers of the garden"—protectors, providers, and cultivators of security.
