What makes a man steady when life gets shaky? In part two of our Psalm 112 series, Kent and Lawson unpack verses 5–8 and discover that generosity isn't just about giving money—it's about living open-handed before God. From Lawson's trip to visit his daughter in New York to Kent's humbling "YMCA incident," this episode is packed with real-life moments that show how generosity and trust in the Lord go hand in hand.   The guys talk about what it means to raise kids who see a dad that listens well, admits when he's wrong, and gives freely—whether that's time, encouragement, or attention. They also tackle the trap of entitlement, how to build a heart that isn't afraid of bad news, and why most dads underestimate the spiritual power of simple kindness.   In this episode you'll hear: How Psalm 112 links generosity to unshakeable stability The difference between generosity and entitlement How giving—of any kind—trains your heart to trust God Simple ways to model generosity for your kids Why admitting your mistakes at home might be your most generous act   For the dad who wants to be steady, grateful, and rooted in God's character—this one's for you.   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.
