In this episode of the DadPOD, my guest is Wes Yoder. Wes is the President of Ambassador Agency. Wes was instrumental in launching Christian contemporary music in Nashville, TN. He is also an author and speaker. Wes’ book, Bond of Brothers: Connecting with Other Men beyond Work, Weather and Sports is a unique book focused on why men struggle in relating to each other and how the church has struggled to engage men in meaningful ways. It’s a great read (and through Father’s Day 2013 it’s on sale as an eBook for $3.99). Wes grew up in Lancaster, PA on a farm in an Amish/Mennonite community. That time on the farm made a big impression on him and how he learned (or not) to communicate his feelings and what he was experiencing. Wes is a fantastic story teller and you’ll truly enjoy listening to his wisdom and some stories about his father, some work issues he experienced and the message he has for men that addresses issues not typically addressed in the typical men’s ministry groups.
During this DadPOD program we discuss:
- The impact Wes’ mom and dad had on his upbringing and the lessons he took with him from a dad who loved him and taught him well.
- The place that sorrow and suffering have in our lives to draw us closer into relationships with each other and with the Lord
- A business deal gone bad that could have easily embittered Wes but instead he allowed the experience to help him grow.
- How meeting around a dinner table is a biblical formula for gathering and fellowshipping.
- Stories about his father that taught him lessons he’s used throughout his life
- We are giving away 5 of Wes’ book, Bond of Brothers. Simply click the book image below, send the pre-populated tweet with the hashtag #dadpodgiveaway and your in. Winners will be announced on the next DadPOD episode.
