Raising brave, antifragile kids through prayerful risk-taking.
Fathers talked honestly about protecting versus preparing their children, anchored by a story of a boy who drew courage from his father's steady presence to venture further and further on his own.
Fathers wrestled with three convicting themes: modeling whole-life worship beyond Sunday, embracing risk as a gift that builds resilience, and building family rhythms that shape children's faith.
Drawing on the Biosphere tree experiment and Jonathan Haidt's research, fathers discuss how children grow stronger through struggle — and share practical ways to let kids face frustration and failure.
Screens are reshaping childhood in four harmful ways — social deprivation, sleep loss, attention fragmentation, and addiction. Fathers explore how to reclaim play-based childhood and protect kids.
Fathers brainstorm what their children most need — encouragement, trust, presence, and the message "you have what it takes" — and reflect on knowing each child as the foundation of fathering.
