God doesn’t want us to cope. He wants us to lead. Start here.
We are using substitutes as crutches for what we’ve lost: a baseline expectation of healthy masculinity. We no longer have mentors to model it for us from boyhood. We no longer have a culture that calls us to it. Absent encouragement—with our nature even demonized—we seek dopamine hits to cope with the stress of life and downward spirals of guilt and shame.
This is where Fathers for Fathers is gathering men together to begin renewing themselves and each other. This is no ‘calling out’. This is a calling-up.
Fathers For Fathers
Jonathan and Jeff chat with Cale Dowell regarding his journey with manhood and being a Dad
Cale is a published thought leader in vulnerability analysis and risk mitigation. He is an engaging public speaker and has consulted with the many of the world’s largest corporations. Cale obtained his B.B.A in Entrepreneurship & Finance from Baylor University. His experience spans technology, commercial real estate, O&G, private equity and startups. Cale spends an inordinate amount of time igniting contagious, positive environments and investing in relationships… because culture eats strategy for breakfast.
He and his wife, Lynne, reside in Houston with their daughter and son. They are actively involved in their church and Young Life, where Cale has served for over a decade. He is a former Precinct Chair for Precinct 436, serves on several non-profit boards, and is a 7th generation Texan. Not surprisingly, he is just as stubborn about Texas as you would imagine.
