Podcast: The Daily Blade: Joby Martin & Kyle Thompson

Description: We talk through the third essential need your wife or future wife has from you as a leader: sacrificial leadership rooted in Jesus and expressed in everyday service. We challenge ourselves to lead at home without keeping score, putting our wife and kids first even when work drains our time and energy. • keeping our relationship with Jesus Christ as the highest priority • showing up with real presence at home, not leading from the sidelines • embracing sacrificial leadership as a mandate, not a preference • becoming the lead disciple through prayer, Scripture, and spiritual guidance • making hard trade-offs with time, travel, money, and comfort for the good of the family • serving without a transactional mindset and dropping expectations of payback • valuing our wives through gratitude, practical help, and attention to what matters to them If you want to help equip other men for the fight, share this podcast around and leave us a five star rating and review. Support the showWant to connect?
