A livestream event for dads and their 7-12 year old sons
A livestream event for dads and their 7-12 year old sons
Do you remember what it was like when you were a tween boy?
Checking your armpits for hair every morning
Looking up at all the tall girls wondering if you were ever going to grow
Flexing in the mirror to try and stir up a muscle
Wondering why your buddy already looked like a highschooler when you still looked like a “little kid”
Did those things leave you feeling kind of weird and sometimes pretty lonely?
Tween boys need to know they are on a journey towards becoming a man, and that the journey was created by God!
QUESTION #1
“will it be awkward?”
Talking to your kid about growing up, manhood, and spiritual stuff can feel awkward for a lot of dads – especially if your dad didn’t talk to you about that kind of stuff. But, just like we say for our Born To Be Brave events, we’ll help you connect with your son without feeling awkward.
QUESTION #2
“So will you talk about THAT?”
No matter what your “THAT” is, know that this event is designed to put YOU in the driver’s seat when it comes to conversations with your son about sensitive and important topics.
It’s Great To Be a Guy! is a LIVE online event for dads+sons happening on April 15 at 6:30 pm ET.
This 1 night is a launchpad towards biblical conversations you really need to have with your 7-12-year-old son.
QUESTION #3
“Am I gonna be bored?” (yawn)
At Born To Be Brave we are pretty determined to create spaces for dads and sons to have a great time together. You’ll laugh and engage with the livestreams just as much as your son will.
What to expect
It’s Great to Be A Guy! is a 1 night virtual livestream study for boys aged 7-12 and their dads. You could even do this with a whole group of dads and dudes!

Q&A time
And more!
What We’ll talk about
The “P” Word
The journey of Puberty is normal and good. (Don’t worry. We won’t go into the gory details. That’s up to you, dad!)
Guys, Gandolf & GoD
Who helps you become a man?
The ultimate man
Jesus was full of emotion AND full of strength. The perfect example for all men and boys!
I bought this book for my 11 year old son…He wanted to know why his voice was cracking and why he was growing hair in certain places… He came out after reading a few chapters and said, “Oh, NOW I know why this is happening! I feel better, Mom.” The book is easy to understand and makes boys feel like it’s ok to have body changes.
