Yes.  It’s time for men to claim a new, life-affirming, expression of masculine identity.  The question is - how are we going to do it?  Actually, the question is more like - where are we going to do it?  We need a place to be real, so we can get clear about what we stand for, and where we stand.  This kickoff, “welcome” episode gives you the “who, what, where, when, why and how” - of the growing Tending Fire Men’s Group Community.  If you identify as a man, it will remind you why this work is essential for your soul.  If you identify as other than “he/his,” this podcast will inspire you to tell the men in your life to get involved.  (Recorded March 2020).

2. Rites of Passage

I believe it’s time for us, as men, to take a bigger stand for Life on Earth.  As a father, I feel an urgency to do everything in my power to make the changes that need to be made - for the children and future generations.  I see the possibility of men being able to find the courage to leverage our power towards the solutions that will really make a difference - for our families and communities.  How are we going to do that?  Well, to get started, we need to take time together, as men, so we can remember our essential role as Protectors of Life.
