9. The fatherhood crisis and parenting lessons from the book of Nehemiah (Guest: Kent Evans of Manhood Journey)



In this episode, Kent Evans shares about the fatherhood crisis in America, parenting lessons from his new book Bring Your Hammer: 28 Tools Dads Can Grab from the book of Nehemiah, and more. This episode is a little more for the fathers, of course, but many insights will be relevant to any Christian.

Kent Evans is the Executive Director and co-founder of Manhood Journey, a ministry that helps dads become disciple-makers. After a twenty-year career as a business leader, he embarked on biblical Fatherhood ministry projects. He’s appeared on television, radio, web outlets and podcasts. He’s a Christian speaker often at parenting and men’s events. He’s authored three books. The first, Wise Guys: Unlocking Hidden Wisdom from the Men Around You, was written to help men learn how to find mentors and wise counsel. The second, The Manhood Journey: Charting a Course to Biblical Fatherhood, aims to help dads not be good or great dads, but be godly ones. The third (coauthored with Eric Ballard), Bring Your Hammer, 28 Tools Dads Can Grab from the Book of Nehemiah, equips dads with practical fatherhood lessons from this famous Old Testament leader.

Kent’s life has been radically affected by godly mentors and his lovely wife, April. They have been married twenty-seven years and have five sons and one daughter-in-law. He lives in Louisville, Kentucky, USA.
