- 32 minutes 4 seconds671: Daniel Smith | Voyage Rites
On today's PoM podcast I am once again joined by Daniel Smith of Voyage Rites that help fathers walk with their sons through intentional formation.
Not by leaving manhood to chance, culture, or age, but by restoring a clear path marked by presence, responsibility, and purpose.
Voyage Rites is a faith-based rite of passage framework designed specifically for fathers and sons. Unlike short-term programs or conferences, we provide a structured pathway for biblical manhood formation rooted in relationship, responsibility, and initiation helping families restore Christian rites of passage for boys over time.

On today's PoM podcast episode take a look at what James says is true wisdom verses what the world says.
James uses several words that would be easy to skim over and not give much thought to. But when we understand the weight of the text we understand the implications of ignoring these warnings can negatively impact us more than we want to realize.

On today's PoM Podcast I sat down with founder and CEO of Seven Weeks Coffee, Anton Krecic.
From the beginning their mission was clear: if they were going to build something, it had to make an impact. That’s why they have committed to donating 10% of every sale (50% of profits) to support pregnancy resource centers and the pro-life community. The name itself comes from a powerful detail: at seven weeks, a baby is about the size of a coffee bean.
To date, they have donated over $1.7M to pregnancy resource centers across the country.

On today's PoM podcast episode take a look at all the examples that James gives when he is showing us the power of the tongue. It appears that the tongue is one of the most important and at times destructive tools someone has when it comes to helping or hurting their witness.

On today's PoM podcast episode we continue our walk through James by talking about how a man of God should treat people, friends, acquaintances and strangers.
It is all too common that we stay in our own comfort zone by how we treat people, even people within our own congregations. Jesus said "They will know you are My disciples by your love for one another." How are we doing with that?

On today's PoM Podcast episode I sat down with Daniel Smith who spent 14 years in law enforcement, 6 at the local level as a police officer, and 8 as a special agent with the FBI. God used his time in the bureau, traveling and being away from his family, to show him how important my presence as a father was to his three sons at home. Daniel has committed to minimizing travel and that began a shift in his mentality and passion to helping fathers raise their sons as he committed to his sons to be present and intentional in their walk towards manhood.
