Does Your Family Get the Best Version of You?

About this episode

Do other people get a better version of you than your wife and kids get? Recorded outdoors in Guatemala during the first Dad Tired Family Missions Trip, Jerrad sits down with a group of dads for an honest conversation about the gap between the fathers they hoped to be and the men their families experience. They talk about replaying parenting mistakes at bedtime, struggling with emotional consistency, watching their own anger show up in their children, and giving so much to others that their families get what’s left. Then Jerrad asks one final question: What kind of dad does your family get because you’ve encountered Jesus? There’s rain, laughter, vulnerability, and hope for every man who loves his family deeply and still knows he needs grace.
