What do you do mentally when something hard hits your life?

In this episode, Jerrad shares a real moment from his day—going from gratitude and joy to panic when his email was hacked and multiple problems hit at once. He reflects on two familiar mental paths many men walk: catastrophizing and numbing.

But healing often means cutting a new path.

Using a powerful backpacking metaphor, Jerrad explores how men can stop defaulting to fear and escape, and instead learn to walk the quieter, harder path of gospel truth.

Practice for today:
Ask yourself: When life gets hard, what are the well-worn paths in my mind—and are they leading me toward healing or away from it?

Because strong families begin with healed men.
