Drowning in podcasts and opinions but still feeling lost? Matt Edmundson explores Paul's challenge to the Corinthian church: "You have countless guides, but you do not have many fathers."

In this honest conversation, Matt unpacks why information overload is making our decisions worse and our stress levels higher. The solution isn't more content. It's finding people who actually know your name and are invested in your life.

You'll discover:
Why guides offer influence without investment
What makes spiritual fatherhood different from coaching or therapy
How one conversation with Dave Connolly changed Matt's entire life direction
Warning signs of controlling relationships versus releasing ones
Practical steps for finding (or becoming) a spiritual father or mother

Matt shares personal stories including walking his spiritual daughter Jen down the aisle at her wedding, and the legacy of passing on what we've received.
