Listen to full episodeDave Grossman, a retired Lieutenant Colonel, renowned author, and speaker, shares his insights on spiritual warfare, the "sheepdog" analogy, and the critical role of sleep in maintaining resilience. Through his experiences and teachings, he brings attention to how men can embody both protectors and caregivers, fostering a balanced and loving environment in their homes while being ready to respond to threats. Grossman encourages men to channel their inner sheepdog: - Self-control is key. Losing your temper is akin to losing bodily control—there is never an appropriate moment for it. - Men are encouraged to switch from protector mode (sheepdog) to nurturing mode (family dog), embodying gentleness and patience at home. Ultimately, Grossman's insights provide a comprehensive framework for men to balance their roles as protectors and nurturers. By fostering self-control, engaging in spiritual warfare, and prioritizing sleep, they can become effective sheepdogs for their families and communities. The transformation into both a gentle caregiver and a resolute protector is not just possible but essential in building strong families and resilient communities.
