Episode Summary:

Something surprising is happening in churches across the West: young men are coming back! Not for hype or entertainment, but for meaning, mission, belonging, and direction. Are our churches ready to meet this incredible moment?

In this episode, we’re joined by author and professor Dr. Nancy Pearcey to unpack the deeper ideas shaping this cultural “vibe shift.” Together, we explore why the church’s sacred-secular split has failed men's discipleship, how the manosphere fills the vacuum, and what it takes to move from momentary revival to lasting reformation!

We also trace how family formation sits at the heart of cultural renewal. From marriage and parenting to workplace rhythms that keep fathers present, we discuss practical ways to re-enthrone the family and recover a whole-life gospel that forms men and women as equal image bearers with distinct gifts.

If you’ve sensed the shift but wondered what to do next, this conversation maps a path toward renewal: dethrone the marketplace, re-enthrone marriage and the family, and rebuild culture from the home outward.
