Milestones to Manhood (w/ Steven Arms)
Manage episode 356030773 series 3155020
Today more than ever, young men need their male role models to step up and help them understand what it means to be a man and bestow that mantle upon them. If a boy is never told what it means to be a man or that it's time to be one, he'll subconsciously extend his adolescent years far into his teens and twenties ... or beyond.
Steven Arms lives in Portland, Oregon, with his wife, Emily, and is the proud father of two young children. In 'Milestone to Manhood' , Steven shares his firsthand experience of his Rite of Passage weekend and reflects on how it shaped him into the man that he is today.

It offers the perspective of both the father and the son, both of whose lives and families were changed by the event.

These gatherings created a situation where elders could bestow the “knowledge of life” and “family values” with the younger generation. This helped keep the tribe alive and well cared for.
Listen in as Terence Chatmon and Steven Arms discuss this important topic and experience.
