What if the fastest way to bond with your son wasn't through another lecture—but with a hundred-pound sandbag and a fire? Today we sit down with military veteran and modern-day apologist David "Goose" Mills of Men's Alliance Tribe, whose battle cry is this: isolation is terminal for dads. Goose shares three anchors for spiritual leadership at home—reject the lie that you're disqualified, lead where you want your kids to go, and learn how to be a lighthouse, not just a shipwreck.   We get super practical, unpacking why a paper Bible on the table matters, how to make small weekly "deposits" that compound over years, and why carving one hour to sharpen your axe (plus a standing date night) without guilt might be essential for your fatherhood rhythm. We also dive into apologetics for busy dads—Goose's book Answer with Truth and his "Carry the Fire" training show how to raise kitchen-table apologists who can stand firm before college ever tests their faith.   If you've been craving a band of brothers and a clear next step, today's episode will light the way.   Check out Goose's ministry: https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/ Find Goose's book "Answer With Truth" here: https://a.co/d/3MwMe6K Listen to the Men's Alliance Tribe podcast: https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/podcast   We've launched video now!

After a twenty-year career as a business leader, he embarked on biblical Fatherhood ministry projects. He's appeared on television, radio, web outlets and podcasts. He's spoken at parenting and men's events, and authored four books. The first, Wise Guys: Unlocking Hidden Wisdom from the Men Around You, was written to help men learn how to find mentors and wise counsel. The latest, Don't Bench Yourself: How to Stay in the Game Even When You Want to Quit, aims to help dads stay present in their roles as fathers and husbands even when they feel like giving up. Kent's life has been radically affected by godly mentors and his lovely wife, April. They have been married thirty years and have five sons and one daughter-in-law. He lives in Louisville, Kentucky. Lawson Brown is husband to his high school sweetheart, a father of two young adult daughters, has been a business leader since 1995, and is a former Marine. He served as a small group leader for teenage boys for many years, helped start the Christian media ministry City on a Hill Productions, then later Sanctuary – a new church in Kennesaw, GA – where he served as its leader for Men's Ministry. Lawson's journey of faith has always been centered in a grounding from his wife, Audrey, and supported throughout by many men whom he's found as brothers along the way. His family is nearing an empty nest phase and has recently relocated to the Florida Gulf Coast beaches area.
