Boyhood Resurrected: Igniting a Revival of Daring and Heroic Boys

It seems like boyhood is dead after a long, slow death of neglect. Our culture’s devaluation of masculinity, boyhood treated as a disease, addiction to screens and more has taken away the few noble years boys had to experience the adventure of play, exploring, building and conquering.

Where do they have to turn? They’re not becoming the men they could have been. Boys need allowance for their rough and tumble, wild energy and thirst for conquering their boyhood kingdoms of forts and dragons, that one day will have them as protector and provider of their families. Could there be a resurrection of boyhood? Could skinned knees and forts live again?

Be empowered, knowing that the “experts” don’t have all the answers, or our boy’s best interests always in mind. Our children do not belong to the state and its institutions and systems. They need rescue from them, and they also need a strong family. Rescued boys make brave men, and we want to resurrect the boyhoods of old, for our sons to reach their full potential and God’s calling on their lives. Boyhood needs more parents championing its cause, as well as cheering on their masculine wiring. We need our boys wild, daring, and strong. It’s up to us to rescue our boys for the brave men they will some day be, one more adventure and story at a time, and letting them play, take risks, and be boys.
