Most men want to love their wives and kids well—but still feel stuck, disconnected, or misunderstood.
In this episode of the Dad Tired Podcast, Jerrad sits down with Gary Chapman, author of The Five Love Languages, to talk about the deeper issue beneath most marriage and parenting struggles:
👉 We’re often loving sincerely—but in the wrong language.
Together, they explore:
- Why effort doesn’t always translate to emotional connection
- The difference between loving sacrificially and loving manipulatively
- How unresolved childhood wounds affect how men give and withhold love
- Why empathy feels threatening to many men—and how to build it
- How dads can discover and speak each child’s unique love language
- What quality time really looks like in a distracted world
- The love language that actually matters most (and it’s not yours)
This conversation is honest, practical, gospel-centered, and deeply encouraging for husbands and fathers who want a growing marriage, not a perfect one.
🎧 Listen, take notes, and ask yourself:
Do the people closest to me actually feel loved?
