EP 113: A Better Vision of Masculinity with Zachary Wagner
We live in a cultural moment where men are being handed competing (and often conflicting) visions of masculinity.
One side tells us to be stronger, tougher, to take control, and avoid weakness.
Or, on the other side, maybe masculinity itself is something "toxic" that we should automatically be suspicious of.
But what if Jesus offers guys a very different way to look at things?
In this episode of the Impactus podcast, Dean sits down with author and theologian Zachary Wagner to talk about his new book, Men of Virtue, and explore why the fruit of the Spirit might be one of the most important places for men to rediscover what godly masculinity actually looks like.
Love. Joy. Peace. Patience. Kindness. Goodness. Faithfulness. Gentleness. Self-control.
At first glance, that list might not sound particularly "manly, " but Zach argues that these aren't "feminine" virtues or optional "extras" for Christian men; they are the character qualities of Christ, and they are what the Holy Spirit is forming in every man who follows Jesus.
But what happens when our cultural picture of manhood begins to compete with the character of Jesus? How can men navigate the tension between conflicting visions of what it means to be a man?
If you want to think more deeply about what it means to become a man who looks like Jesus—not simply a man who looks "manly" by any definition of "man" out there—then this conversation is definitely worth a listen.

EP 112: What Makes a Good Man? with Donnie Griggs
What does it actually mean to become a good man?
In a culture where it's so easy for men to become obsessed with greatness, achievement, and influence, many guys find themselves chasing the wrong things. In this conversation, Jordan sits down with pastor and author Donnie Griggs and explores why goodness and faithfulness matter more than being impressive—and why becoming a good man is a lifelong journey we were never meant to walk alone.
Jordan and Donnie talk honestly about responsibility, the weight men are meant to carry, and what happens when men avoid the responsibilities that help them grow. They also unpack a vision of masculinity that refuses to choose between strength and tenderness, and the biblical truth that men need brothers, not just buddies—men who know us, encourage us, speak truth to us and walk with us through every season of life.
Join Jordan and Donnie for a compelling conversation about responsibility, friendship, masculinity, faithfulness and what it really means to become a good man.
