Episode notes
Range Is The Core Of Christian Manhood
- Christian masculinity requires range: ruling, cultivating, protecting, learning, and glory-bearing.
- John Lovell links classical humanist education with rugged physical grit as a model for men.
Prepare To Protect The Innocent
- Prepare practically: Christians should train to defend the innocent because a good guy with a gun can stop an attacker.
- Treat protection as a sacred duty to stand in the gap for others.
Order Needs Capable Men
- Societies crumble when they forget the role of capable men who can do controlled violence.
- Removing mechanisms that form restrained, virtuous men invites exploitation and decline.
