Fear is often the driving force of the 'false self,' compelling men to hide and prove themselves. Michael and SJ explore how personal stories illuminate the roots of these behaviors, linking them to shame and early experiences. They emphasize that perfect love can dispel fear, inviting listeners to engage deeply with God's love rather than mere doctrine. With practical wisdom on accountability and community, they encourage honest self-reflection as a pathway to freedom and authentic living.
