Life is cyclical.

“Hard times create strong men. Strong men create good times. Good times create weak men. Weak men create hard times.”

Our world is going through hard times, and this is not the first time we’ve gone through this. Though in difficult times, we also live in a time with great abundance. 

During WWII there were 18 and 20 years olds storming the beaches of Normandy, terrified perhaps yet without hesitation to fight for the free world. Today, we have men living in their parents’ houses until they are 25 or older. Ask yourself what is the difference? 

The men I’ve spoken to recently are going through hard times. These men have spent time bending and twisting their language to fit the “nice guy” narrative in an effort to make everyone happy. Those same men are committed to getting stronger and winning the war that rages inside us. 

In this episode of Becoming Kings, we discuss the war inside our minds, how becoming a king isn’t without struggle, and what it takes to heal.

In this episode you’ll learn about…
