In this episode of The Resilient Show, Chad Robichaux sits down with Josh for a powerful conversation about the crisis of manhood in America, the responsibility of fathers, and why boys need more than comfort, entertainment, and passive encouragement.Josh breaks down what it means for a man to be ready, willing, and able to do his job in the service of others, no matter the cost to himself. He shares the heart behind The Stronger Boy Way, his book and rite-of-passage program designed to help fathers intentionally lead their sons into manhood through challenge, mentorship, skill-building, and affirmation.Chad and Josh also discuss the need for men to step back into leadership in their homes, churches, communities, and nation. From fatherhood and mentorship to courage, responsibility, politics, culture, and faith, this episode is a call for men to stop sitting on the sidelines and start carrying the weight they were made for.Josh also shares the vision behind Freedom Con, a gathering of Christian men focused on restoring courage, conviction, and statesmanship in a culture that desperately needs strong, godly men.00:00 Intro00:49 Welcome Josh McPherson01:18 Freedom Con and the Men’s Conference Lineup03:05 What Is The Stronger Boy Way?04:02 What Does It Mean to Be a Man?05:07 Fathers Leading Sons Into Manhood07:32 Rite of Passage as a Starting Line09:42 Patches, Challenge Coins, and Building Strong Boys13:33 Why Boys Need Intentional Fathers17:21 Why It’s Never Too Late to Start18:39 Brotherhood, Mentorship, and Mission20:45 America’s Manhood Crisis27:12 Vision, Permission, and Help for Men30:19 Why Pastors Need Moral Courage37:53 Freedom Con and Christian Statesmanship49:30 Washington State’s Valley Forge Moment01:03:53 Faith, Veterans, and the White House01:18:18 Closing Thoughts and Patreon GiveawayJOSH'S LINKS:Stronger Man Nation: https://www.strongermannation.comWarrior Poet Society: https://www.warriorpoetsupplyco.comFreedom Con - Use promo code ROBO for 50% off: https://www.freedomcon26.com/ticketsStronger Boy Way Kit: https://www.warriorpoetsupplyco.com/p...——Stay up-to-date with all things Resilient by subscribing to our Resilient Times Newsletter: https://resilienttimes.substack.comRESILIENT:Follow Us On Patreon: ⁠  / theresilientshow  Follow Us On Instagram: ⁠  / resilientshow  Follow Us On Twitter:⁠ ⁠  / resilientshow  Follow Us On TikTok:⁠ ⁠  / resilientshow  LIVE RESILIENT STORE:https://shop.theresilientshow.comFollow Chad: ⁠⁠  / chadrobo_official  https://x.com/ChadRoboSPONSORS:Smith & Wesson: ⁠⁠https://www.smith-wesson.com⁠⁠Vortex Optics: ⁠https://vortexoptics.com⁠Gatorz Eyewear: ⁠⁠https://www.gatorz.com⁠⁠Allied Wealth: ⁠https://alliedwealth.com⁠BioPro+: ⁠⁠https://www.bioproteintech.com/CHAD30⁠⁠BioXCellerator: ⁠https://www.bioxcellerator.com⁠Core Medical: https://coremedicalgrp.com/chadpodcas...------The Resilient Show is a proud supporter of military and first responder communities in partnership with ⁠Mighty Oaks Foundation⁠.
