He is also a Senior Fellow with the Family Research Council. He earned his Ph.D from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School and his M.Div from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary.

This is Undaunted Life, a man's podcast. I'm your host Kyle Thompson. Let's get into it.

Hi guys. Today we got a special return guest to the podcast. His name is Owen Strand. So he was

0:31.3

on episode 361 of this podcast. We talked about his book Christianity and Wokeness. He's written

0:36.7

a lot of different books and he's got a lot of fancy jobs. He's a prover, provost and research

0:41.0

professor. He's a senior fellow at the Family Research Council. He's done a lot of great stuff.

0:45.2

And I talk a little bit more about his bio on episode 361. But for today, we spent the majority

1:29.5

Bachum and the forward that he wrote. We talk about influencers and culture like, you know, an

1:33.8

annotator, a jaco willink and a Tim Kennedy and a camhains and a David Goggins and Joe Rogan

1:38.7

and all those guys and how men and young boys will actually look to those guys for manhood advice

1:44.8

because they can't get the advice inside their churches because most of the guys inside their

1:48.0

churches aren't really tough and rough dudes like they have the softness part down pat but they

1:53.6

don't have really that toughness piece. And we talk about how that gets into the dichotomy,
