In this episode of Church Dads, Mark and Luke unpack one of the biggest threats to modern fatherhood: distraction. From constant busyness to cultural pressure, they explore how easily men drift from what matters most—faith, family, and calling.

Drawing from Matthew 6:19–34, insights from Tim Tebow, and real-life examples, they challenge dads to redefine success from a biblical perspective. Instead of chasing “one dollar more,” they encourage listeners to pursue eternal treasure, strengthen their homes, and stay focused on God’s Kingdom above all else.

If you’ve felt overloaded, unfocused, or pulled in every direction, this conversation will help you refocus, realign, and lead with greater clarity and purpose.
