In today’s episode, Ken Harrison, author, speaker, CEO of WaterStone, and Chairman of Promise Keepers, joins Dr. Zach to cast a compelling vision for biblical manhood. In a generation confused about masculinity, Ken calls men back to strength, responsibility, humility, and mission. This episode is a rallying cry for men who want to live with clarity and conviction. Ken expands on the idea that men are called to be “servant kings” which are leaders who protect, serve, and sacrifice like Christ. He discusses the crisis of masculinity and fatherlessness in today’s culture, how men can lead with integrity without drifting into authoritarianism, the necessity of friendships and accountability, and the spiritual disciplines that keep a man grounded in his God-given identity and purpose.
