Why the Lion-Hearted Man?

My name is Garrett. I am a relatively new father who senses the gravity of being a dad of 4 young kids. The Lion-Hearted Man is my personal journey to passionately and courageously lead my family towards Jesus. I believe God is raising up a generation of young fathers who will live with intentionality, vision and integrity.

The things most worth while in life are often the hardest. I invite you to join me in rising up and stepping into God’s vision for Fatherhood. My wife, Lydia has said “Much grace required, much grace given.” It’s the bedrock for our marriage and it’s the bedrock in being a Lion-Hearted Man.

“A big man knows how small he is, and that sense of smallness makes him appreciate how big God is. The true measure of a man isn’t how much he knows; it’s how much he does with what he knows.”

-Mark Batterson, “Play the Man”
