Episode 99: The Warrior Poet Society (John Lovell)

3/4/2018

Comments

 
John Lovell from the Warrior Poet Society talks with Dad Tired about fatherhood, marriage, home security, adoption, and the theology of war
So often we as Christians want to focus on only one attribute of God, the attribute of love. But we tend to forget that scripture also tells us that God is a man of war. It's important to understand that both of these attributes are important and help to show us how we as men should be living our lives. Join host Jerrad Lopes and guest John Lovell from the Warrior Poet Society as they discuss God as a warrior, the theology of defense, practical things each of us can do to protect our homes, and how best to be a good father and husband. This episode is different than anything you've heard on Dad Tired previously and you'll want to take the time and listen.
Host: Jerrad Lopes 

Guest: John Lovell is a credentialed full-time tactics and firearms instructor and is an NRA instructor. He teaches over 20 different classes including night vision, low light tactics, room clearing, defensive pistol courses, defensive carbine/rifle courses, home defense classes, NRA classes, and more. John is a war veteran and a former member of Special Operations, having served in 2nd Ranger Battalion with numerous combat tours to both Iraq and Afghanistan. His overseas experience also entails having served as a missionary to Central America for four years. He holds a B.A. in Business, and, more than an instructor, John considers himself a student of war, philosophy, theology, and history. When he is not teaching, training, or spending time with his family, you will likely find him reading.
