Game Ready Dad – The Spiritual Defense Every Father Needs

How do great dads protect their families without becoming overprotective?

In Part 2 of our Game Ready Dad “mini-series,” Kent and Lawson shift from offense to defense and explore what it means to guard your family spiritually, emotionally, and relationally. Drawing from Scripture, military strategy, and personal experience, they discuss how fathers can identify threats, build healthy boundaries, choose wise influences, and create a home where their children can thrive.

You’ll learn why a strong defense isn’t built on fear—it’s built on wisdom, intentionality, and trust in God.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

Why every dad needs both offense and defense
What Scripture teaches about spiritual protection
How friends shape your child’s future
Practical ways to guard your family’s mind and heart
The role of accountability and brotherhood in fatherhood
Why good defense starts before a crisis arrives
A Father’s Day challenge for every dad
If you’re ready to become a more intentional father and build a stronger family culture, this episode will help you develop a defensive strategy rooted in God’s Word.

Listen, share, and become a Game Ready Dad. Happy Father’s Day!
