Summary

Today we speak with Steven Arms, Co-author of Milestone to Manhood, A Christian Rite of Passage to Help Your 13-Year-Old Son Make the Leap from Boyhood to Manhood.

The ideas we discuss apply to all Dads (not just dads with 11 or 12-year-old sons).

Highlights include:

What is a rite of passage, and how to tell if one is right for your family?
At what age should you start preparing your kids for a rite of passage?
Share some of your mistakes with your children while avoiding unnecessary details.
The three most valuable words to tell your kids next to I love you. (hint: it's about being proud).
The Role of Modeling: If you're not living up to your strengths and weaknesses in your day-to-day life, then your words will fall on deaf ears.

Enjoy this eye-opening conversation!
