The Men We’re Losing: Built to Feel, Not Just to Fight

You’ve probably had an important man in your life you wished you knew more deeply—maybe even your own father. This week, your feed is likely filled with calls for stronger men, braver men, less apathetic men. But here’s what’s missing: a call for whole men. Vulnerable men. Connected men. The truth? Men are struggling—but not because they’re weak, lack courage, or are too apathetic. From a young age, boys are taught to sever the parts of themselves that feel: tenderness, emotion, connection. The result is an epidemic of shame, isolation, and disconnection. This Father’s Day at Restore, we’ll talk about the real weight men carry—and the healing Jesus offers. Not through toughness. Not through silence. But through being known. Trusted. And fully seen.
