Is Biblical Masculinity the Answer? | S4E3

Exploring More

In this week's episode of the Exploring More Podcast, we kick off the first series of season 4, diving into the concept of Biblical Masculinity vs. Kingdom Masculinity. Hosts Michael Thompson and SJ Jennings set the stage for this thought-provoking conversation, exploring what biblical masculinity truly means. They raise the important question: is biblical masculinity the ultimate answer, or is there a different approach? Michael and SJ introduce the idea that Kingdom Masculinity may provide a more complete and dynamic perspective—one that involves living in communion with the Trinity. As they delve into this discussion, they touch on the complex topics: image-bearing, spiritual warfare, the concept of the true self versus the false self, romantic relationships, and intimacy with God. Although this episode merely scratches the surface of these subjects, it opens the door to exploring how Jesus' life provides a model for masculinity. They emphasize, however, that masculinity is not just about knowing who Jesus is, but about truly experiencing a walk with Him. Additionally, they explore how our understanding of masculinity is influenced by our boyhood and the stories we carry. The hosts suggest that these early influences—whether positive or negative—shape our view of manhood and must be examined and, in a lot of cases, undone to embrace a fuller understanding of what kingdom masculinity means. This episode with SJ and Michael serves as an intriguing introduction to the upcoming discussions in this series, offering a roadmap for what's to come. We hope you enjoy and are inspired by this episode of The Exploring More Podcast!
