Raising Sheepdogs with Lt. Col. Dave Grossman

This world needs honorable men. Are you raising the next generation of men? Do you have a son? A younger brother? A boy in the neighborhood that needs guidance?  Are you a coach? A mentor?  Wise counsel?  Join me in discovering and putting into action what it takes to raise up and train the next generation of men.   This world needs 10:16 men.  As rates of suicide, depression, and other mental health issues rise, and responsibility, accountability, masculinity and purpose decline, we invite men to explore the soft and hard traits of man; how to engage in community, be a shepherd, warrior and king, lead, follow, debate, manage stress, be confident and take control of your life, and live it with purpose.   The 10:16 man is controlled, calculated, emotionally intelligent, engaged in family and community, is dangerous and kind.  He is a shepherd, a warrior and a king.
