Summary

In today’s episode of Exploring the Marketplace, hosts Shawn Bolz and Bob Hasson sit down with Jeff Bethke, a New York Times bestselling author known for Jesus > Religion and numerous other impactful books. Jeff, alongside his wife Alyssa, also co-hosts The Real Life Podcast and runs FamilyTeams.com, an initiative focused on helping families live as multi-generational teams on a mission.

Jeff dives deep into his latest work tackling a pressing issue: the crisis of masculinity. With cultural critiques of toxic masculinity and patriarchal systems growing louder, many men are left feeling confused, paralyzed, and unsure of their place in today’s world. Jeff's mission is to call men back to the light of Jesus' vision, urging them to embrace their God-given masculinity as a gift, not a burden.

In this episode, Jeff shares how his new book, Fighting Shadows, provides men with practical tools to overcome the shadows of loneliness, apathy, distraction, lust, and shame. They discuss the importance of stepping out of these shadows and living into the strength, longings, and gifts that God has placed within every man.

Don’t miss this powerful conversation as Jeff Bethke encourages men everywhere to reject passivity and escapism, and to courageously step into the fullness of God’s calling on their lives. Tune in to discover how you can live as the man God created you to be.
