In this special bonus episode, Speaker Sprowls talks with author and radio personality Brant Hansen about his book “The Men We Need: God's Purpose for the Manly Man, the Avid Indoorsman, or Any Man Willing to Show Up.” In a culture that portrays men as either dumb and weak or toxic and overbearing, Brant explains the real purpose men were designed to serve. This conversation will inspire men– young and old– to embrace their roles as protectors, charged with defending the vulnerable and creating secure places for others to thrive.
