Lead your family by first leading the spirit of your home.

In this short talk Paul — founder of Path of Manliness and an Orthodox Christian husband and father — explains why leadership begins with emotional tone, how men should stop “unloading” burdens onto their wives, and how brotherhood and spiritual practice equip a man to bring harmony and stability into family life.

This is practical, tested, and grounded in Orthodox practice — not a quick fix but a way of life.

A weekend on a Danish homestead. Men training, learning, and building side-by-side.

In this conversation, UFC veteran Martin Kampmann joins Paul to reflect on hands-on workshops (boxing, wrestling, carpentry, singing), the quick bond that forms when men push themselves together, and why focused craft and physical discipline help men stay grounded as fathers and workers

We also discuss the wider picture: many men today feel isolated, distracted, and unsure how to become strong, stable, and useful. Path of Manliness offers a countercultural path—practical skills, shared effort, and a return to living tradition oriented toward meaning and responsibility.

Join our Genesis workshop here: https://pathofmanliness.notion.site/genesis-workshopModern men are told to be soft, agreeable, and “safe.” But Scripture calls them to something higher — to be head in self-sacrificing love, just as Christ is Head of the Church.When a man lives in obedience to God, he becomes the root of stability for his wife and children. His faith anchors their emotions, his discipline protects their trust, and his leadership guides them toward holiness and peace.In this video, Paul explores what godly masculinity truly offers a woman — protection, provision, and leadership — not as domination, but as service.Without godly men, women are forced to harden themselves to survive. But when men return to their role as protectors, providers, and priests of the household, women can once again flourish in grace and beauty.Chapters:00:00 Introduction: The Rise of Traditional Christianity Among Youth00:34 Christian Anthropology: Understanding Man and Woman00:54 The Role of Men and Women in Christian Marriage02:44 The Concept of Headship and Its Misunderstandings03:38 Stability and Trust in Christian Family Life05:01 The Classical Understanding of Male Leadership07:50 The Biological and Spiritual Roles of Men and Women11:11 The Path to Salvation: Marriage and Monasticism12:33 Conclusion: Embracing the Sacrament of MarriageSubscribe to our channel to stay updated on our latest content.https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCXPMCOblA-vdnIpE-4BR8PA?sub_confirmation=1Read more about Maniphesto:https://maniphesto.com/aboutFree Tools and Resources: https://maniphesto.com/tools/Join an online men's group with Maniphesto Core: https://maniphesto.com/core-member/Find us on your preferred platform:https://linktr.ee/maniphesto

Most men today have no idea how to court a woman.

They “date,” they flirt, they text — but few ever prepare themselves to be husbands.

In this video, I explain the 7 biggest mistakes men make when courting a woman, and how to avoid them by returning to a traditional, God-centered approach to marriage.

Courtship is not about getting a girlfriend.

It’s not about validation, pleasure, or fixing your loneliness.

It’s about preparing yourself to take responsibility for a woman, for children, and for a home — and to work out your salvation through marriage.

If your life is rightly ordered — stable, disciplined, and oriented toward God — then courtship becomes simple and clear.

You won’t need to play games, chase affection, or lose yourself in emotional confusion.

You’ll know who you are, where you’re going, and what kind of woman can walk beside you.

In this video, you’ll learn:

1. Why aiming at “comfort” instead of lifelong marriage ruins your discernment.

2. Why being financially and emotionally stable is your duty before courtship.

3. The danger of hiding your intentions — and why plain speech attracts serious women.

4. How to stop seeking her validation and start walking in obedience to God.

5. Why courtship should be short and decisive, not a drawn-out emotional drift.

6. How lust blinds a man and destroys real love.

7. Why speaking to parents — hers and yours — is a mark of true masculinity.

Guiding Principle: Keep your eyes on God.

Get your connection and strength from other men.

Then approach a woman not as a beggar seeking affection — but as a man offering a life of faith, stability, and purpose.

Men are starved for meaning.

In this conversation, Fr. John Strickland and Paul unpack why Dostoevsky saw the modern project collapsing into nihilism, how Nietzsche’s “will to power” seduces many today, and why the Orthodox path—repentance, hierarchy, and liturgical brotherhood—actually forms men.

We contrast utopian fantasies with the sober beauty of life in the Church, where men stand shoulder-to-shoulder and become reliable husbands, fathers, and brothers.

If you’re a man tired of isolated self-help and atomized living—and ready for strength, stability, and community—join our Genesis Workshop. It’s a clear on-ramp to traditional wisdom, daily practices, and real fraternity.

Modern culture is collapsing into confusion—and men feel it first.

In this conversation, Fr. John Strickland and Brian Patrick Mitchell trace today’s moral chaos back to its roots and show why Orthodoxy is drawing men who crave order, meaning, and brotherhood.

We talk the Great Schism, feminism’s impact on the sexes, the lure of ideology vs. Logos, and why repentance and worship orient a man toward reality. If you’re disillusioned with entertainment “church,” self-help, or politics as salvation, this is your road back to stability, strength, and community.

Modern men are lost between two extremes: the collapse of Western culture into nihilism, and counterfeit promises of strength built on pride and power. Nietzsche saw the death of God, but he had no answer for what would come after. Today, many young men feel that same abyss: isolation, weakness, and meaninglessness.In this powerful conversation with Fr. John Strickland, we explore Nietzsche’s tragic life, Jordan Peterson’s popular interpretation, and why Orthodoxy offers the only path to true strength and stability. From Father Seraphim Rose’s warnings about nihilism to the collapse of woke liberalism and shallow vitalism, we trace how society fell—and how men can return to truth.If you’re a man searching for clarity, brotherhood, and stability in a collapsing world, join the Genesis Workshop.

When Nietzsche declared “God is dead,” he named the spiritual vacuum men now feel. In this conversation, Fr. John Strickland traces how secular ideologies (from utilitarianism to Marxism) borrowed Christian morality, cut it off from God, and led us to nihilism—a culture where nothing holds, and men drift. We contrast that collapse with a return to order: living as sons, brothers, husbands, and fathers under Christ—real hierarchy, real responsibility, real community.

If you’re a man (20–45) disillusioned with modern culture and hungry for stability and strength, join our Genesis Workshop.

It’s a practical on-ramp to rebuild your life through tradition, accountability, and brotherhood.
