Men need help, but it's often very hard to get men to the point of admitting they need help.

For this reason, it is a brave and bold thing indeed to publish

a book about manhood because one of the first things you hear, I know this from experience

from many publishers, is this, men don't read books. And in particular, men often don't

want to read books about being a godly man. But the

lived reality of all of us men out here is that we do need help. And so I am so excited for today's

podcast. Those of you who listen to Grace and Truth know that I cover manhood on a regular

basis, very happily so. It's really the

central matter of our age, I would argue. So many problems traced back to failures of manhood.

My guest today on Grace and Truth is a man named Jim Ramos. I'm guessing some of you out there know him.

He's the director, the head of men in the arena, his ministry that is aimed at helping men grow in

godliness. He's written a great new book called Dialed In. He's got an excellent podcast. We could

just keep the accolades coming. Jim, welcome to Grace and Truth. Oh, and it's such an honor to be

on your show. I'm always humbled to get asked to be on a different shows and yours is a crushing it so

great job and thank you so much i'm honored that's so kind of you jim i i think i first saw

your material on instagram um just scrolling who knows what and yeah this video popped up of

this dude looking rugged walking through the forest,

talking about like, here, here's what I'm pretty sure was the first video I saw of yours.

I've watched a lot of your content and benefited from it.

You were like, it was something to the effect of, hey, guys, you've messed up your life.

Your marriage isn't in a great spot.

Sexual purity's not perfect.
