I’m the happily married father of 12 children and live on a farm in Virginia, but this is a miracle. In 1992, I was a broke, divorced father of a two-year-old son. I didn’t want to marry again and I didn’t want any more children. Today I have a strong marriage, eight sons and four daughters. Pretty crazy. The most formative years of my adult life were in the Army. For 20 years I was an Armored Cavalry Officer and China Foreign Area Officer. I served in the U.S., Europe, throughout the U.S. Government, in The Pentagon, the Hong Kong Consulate and the Beijing Embassy. I left the Army in 2002 to start businesses but had to do it part time because I had to feed my family. I worked for Northrop Grumman, IBM, ManTech and other corporations. I got the best training in the world from the Army and these iconic American corporations.   I started my first business in 2002. Business ownership is scary, liberating and addictive, but making money using your creativity and wits is life-changing. I have started several companies, but I crashed the best one in 2007 when I tried to drive it too fast. That same month my daughter got cancer and that same year my son was diagnosed with Type I diabetes. Lots of challenges. Crashing that business when I did made me look hard in the mirror and confront my life. As a husband, as a father, as a man, I wasn’t stacking up. I had to learn new skills and dig deep to get back on my feet. I had to heal a lot of wounds I had caused. I had to grow, learn and improve. A lot. I think I have and I’d like to offer my own experiences to you. https://www.authenticmasculinity.com Get Your Copy Now! of Tell Them, What Great Fathers Tell Their Sons and Daughters www.meninthearena.org Men in the Arena Books and Swag Support the Podcast

MEET DAVID MURROW It’s Sunday morning. Where are the men? Not in church. The average congregation in North America draws an adult crowd that’s more than 60% female. Why do men and boys avoid church? And why do churchgoing men seem so passive and bored? David Murrow has dedicated his life to answering these questions. He's the author of the best-selling book Why Men Hate Going to Church, with more than 150,000 copies in print in 12 languages. He’s helped thousands of churches around the world attract, retain and empower men.    Murrow is an entertaining speaker who handles this taboo subject with humor and grace. He's a television producer and writer by trade, and brings strong visual content to his presentation. You’ll never see church the same way again. Murrow lives with his wife of 33 years, Gina Medaris Murrow, in the bustling metropolis of Chugiak, Alaska.  http://churchformen.com Get Your Copy Now! of Tell Them, What Great Fathers Tell Their Sons and Daughters www.meninthearena.org Men in the Arena Books and Swag Support the Podcast
