In this episode of Way of the Heart, Jake & Brett are joined by long time friend, Pete White. Pete has known Jake professionally for years and watched Brett hoop during his prime basketball years. They discuss a wide variety of topics including the beauty and difficulties of marriage, how men and women respond differently to conflict, how conflict can lead to great things & the importance of good fathers. This is one of our deepest conversations yet and we hope that it speaks to your heart.
Key Points
- The beauty and difficulties of marriage.
- A discussion about how people, especially men, get married without an understanding of what it takes for a marriage to thrive.
- Trends in boy’s/men’s personal growth since the feminist movement
- Psychologically, men tend to have a fight or flight mentality. Women tend to have a tend and mend mentality. This dates back to the earliest humans. Men tend to fight alone. Women work together.
- Conflict in marriage can be generative.
- The importance of fatherhood. Inviting our sons to something higher by letting them punch a little above their weight.
- The distorted desire to build an empire instead of serving your neighbor.
- How to drop the facade and get to more of your true self.
