What Is a Biblical Man? Misconceptions Regarding Masculinity | Joel Beeke & Jonny Ardavanis

What does it actually mean to be a biblical man? In this episode, Jonny sits down with Dr. Joel Beeke to cut through the cultural confusion about masculinity and lay out a Scripture-shaped vision for all men: strong and gentle, serving and leading.

You’ll learn:
• The common misconceptions about masculinity (domineering, cold, or passive)
• Why a real man is both strong and gentle, modeled by Christ in John 13
• Why who you are before God in private matters more than what you accomplish
• What it means to be a prophet in your home: family worship, catechesis, and teaching your kids the Word
• What it means to be a priest: sacrificial love and praying for your wife and children (Job 1:5)
• What it means to be a king: protecting, defending, and guiding rather than dominating
• Encouragement for dads who feel they’ve missed years of family worship (Joel 2:25)
• How to love and pray for adult or rebellious children

Whether you’re a husband, a father, a future dad, or a grandfather, this conversation will challenge and encourage you to lead your family with humility, courage, and Christlike love. The episode closes with a prayer for dads.
