Michael Swalley joins this episode to share the unexpected connections between breakdancing and fatherhood. Tune in to hear Michael’s thoughts on the battle against busyness, the power of your wife’s voice, and the value of being known by others. As you embrace your identity as a son of God, you’ll experience the freedom to be the father you are meant to be.

Key Takeaways

Your fatherhood journey might begin with grieving the loss of many things.
There is power in the voice of your wife.
How much of your busyness is motivated by trying to earn an identity God has already given you?
The fundamental truths of God don’t put you in a box; instead, they free you up to express yourself more creatively.
Just like breaking, fatherhood is a communal experience, and attempting it in isolation will affect your performance.

Key Quotes

23:10 - "The identity as a son really frees us up as fathers, to make time with our family. That has been a process for me and very much learning that right now."
25:36 - "There are some very basic fundamental truths of being a father that we learn from God who has revealed Himself as such. Those truths don't put us in a box. And then as you live into those, those truths, it frees you up to be the dad that God has created you to be. Each one of us, God has gifted us with unique kids, and He knew those kids that we are going to father and He knew that we were uniquely gifted with our lives to be able to father those kids."
