In this first Rooted in Faith segment, we’re digging into what it truly means to be a father rooted in God’s Word. Using Genesis 18:19, Proverbs 4:1–2, and Joshua 24:15 as our foundation, we’ll explore the calling God has placed on dads: to lead our households with righteousness, to pass down wisdom with intentionality, and to boldly declare, “As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.”
I’ll share parts of my own faith journey; moments of learning, growth, and even struggle and connect them to the real challenges and victories of fatherhood. This isn’t about being the perfect dad; it’s about being present, faithful, and willing to lead with purpose.
If you’ve ever wondered how to strengthen your role as a spiritual leader in your home, this episode is for you.
Tune in, reflect, and walk away with encouragement and practical ways to direct your family in the way of the Lord.

In this inaugural episode, I pull back the curtain on The Rooted Dad...where it started, why it matters, and where we're going. This isn't just another dad podcast. It's a space for fathers who want to lead with intention, grow with grit, and leave a legacy that lasts. You'll hear my personal story, the heart behind the mission, and why being a "Rooted Dad" isn't about being perfect, it's about being present.
Stick around to the end of how you can involved, connect deeper, and help shape what's coming next.

In this episode of Ask Dad Anything, the girls come in with some big questions — and I do my best to answer with heart, honesty, and a little humor.
We talk about why some people need glasses to see, whether you can take an airplane to Heaven, and what it really means when something is “Spirit-breathed.” These conversations are tender, thoughtful, and full of curiosity — just like the minds behind the questions.
Pull up a chair, take a walk with us, or listen in with your own kids — this is what happens when you create space for questions that matter.

In this powerful episode of Rooted Conversations, we dive into one of the most defining and often unspoken struggles men face — the father wound.
Whether your dad was absent, emotionally unavailable, overly critical, or completely missing from your story, that gap leaves a mark. But it doesn’t have to define you.
We’ll unpack how the father wound shows up in our parenting, our relationships, our faith, and our identity. Most importantly, we’ll talk about what healing looks like — not overnight, not perfectly — but intentionally and courageously.
This isn’t about blaming our fathers. It’s about breaking the cycle.
Why acknowledging the father wound is a strength, not a weaknessHow it affects how we show up as dads and husbandsAnd how to begin the journey of healing — with grace, not guilt
If you’ve ever asked, "Am I enough without my father’s approval?" — this episode is for you.

I had the opportunity to sit down with pediatrician and Best Selling author, Dr. Meg Meeker to talk about the true calling of fatherhood. Together, we explore why dads should never limit themselves to the cultural stereotypes of the “Homer Simpson” model of fatherhood and how breaking free from those norms unlocks deeper purpose and connection at home.
Dr. Meeker shares stories from decades of practice that highlight the lasting impact a father has on his children’s lives, and we dive into how God has uniquely called men to step into the sacred role of being a dad.
Whether you’re a new father, a seasoned dad, or somewhere in between, this episode will encourage you to embrace the weight and wonder of fatherhood with confidence and faith.
