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.

Transcribe →654: Tim Mulgrew | Are We Reading The Bible The Wrong Way?
May 500:35:07Tap to summarizeSend us Fan MailOn today's PoM Podcast I sat down with Tim Mulgrew, author of "The Book of Us." Tim says there’s a quiet tension right now: more people are opening the Bible than we’ve seen in years—especially younger audiences—but many aren’t staying with it. Not because they don’t care, but because it’s not clicking. Tim thinks the issue isn’t discipline, knowledge or desire. He thinks it’s the framework we’ve been handed.Tim's central argument is that we've been taught to read the Bible through a modern, Western lens—linear, analytical and verse-by-verse—when it was never written that way.To learn more visit: https://www.enjoyscripture.com/Learn more about The Pursuit of Manliness: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/ Secure your spot in Tribe XVIII https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/tribe-xviiiJoin The Herd: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/join-the-herdRegister for our 2026 Fall Men's Retreat: https://www.thepursuitofmanliness.com/gear/p/2026-mens-retreatSupport the show
