Strategist, entrepreneur, teacher, author, and speaker Morgan Snyder joins us for one of the best conversations we’ve had on the show. It starts and ends with this idea of becoming, and 2 central questions: Who have I become? Who am I becoming. This episode is a must listen!

Who am I becoming? - Male initiation is part of our spiritual growth - Every great story borrows from the gospel, which is meant to be the greatest story of our lives - The image of God (imago dei) is evident in the power that boys & men display or pursue - Initiation is about learning how to use that power to bless others - The pocket knife as a metaphorical and literal demonstration of power - We live in a world at war, where it’s hard to be a man (staying true to the process of initiation) - The magic of the kingdom of God is made available in everyday life
