The Collapse of Masculinity — And Why It’s Not Just a Culture War, It’s Spiritual

Weak Men. Broken Homes. A Culture in Collapse. It’s Time to Man Up.

We’re watching manhood die in real time.

Boys are being raised without fathers, told masculinity is toxic, and shaped by screens instead of men. The culture doesn’t just mock manhood anymore—it straight up wages war on it. And the sad thing is… it’s working. You can see it in the soft, passive, emotionally unstable boys who never become grounded, self-sacrificing, rock-solid men.

But this isn’t just about politics or culture. This is spiritual.

Satan’s been after men since the garden. Adam stood there silent while Eve was deceived. And ever since, the enemy’s tactic hasn’t changed: Neutralize the man, and the house crumbles.

Fatherless and Fractured

Look at any broken community in America and I guarantee you’ll find one thing in common: no dads.

• 1 in 4 kids in America grow up without a father in the home.

• Boys raised without dads are more likely to be violent, drop out, get arrested, and end up suicidal.

• Girls without fathers? More likely to be exploited, trafficked, or end up in toxic relationships.

The system’s been rigged to reward absentee dads and punish family units that actually work. Welfare policies replace husbands. Courts strip fathers of authority. And then society has the nerve to ask, “What happened to the youth?”

You kicked out the covering—and now you’re surprised the roof collapsed?

Soft Boys and Weak Men

Some of these boys never stood a chance. Raised by single moms, addicted to TikTok, medicated for being too energetic, and told to be “less aggressive.” What do you expect?

And the ones who survive that mess? They end up either simping for approval or acting out in rage because no one taught them how to channel their strength. Because that’s what masculinity really is—it’s controlled fire. It’s meant to protect, provide, and lead. But now it’s been labeled dangerous.

So instead, we get:

• Boys who cry over video games but won’t cry out to God.

• Men who can recite Marvel movies but not lead their families in prayer.

• Dudes who go to the gym to flex but won’t flex their spine when truth is on the line.

Weak men create broken homes. Broken homes create broken kids. Broken kids vote for more broken systems. Rinse and repeat.

The Feminization of the Church

Even in church, you see it. Worship music that sounds like love songs to Jesus, pastors who sound more like therapists than shepherds, and sermons that tiptoe around sin because heaven forbid someone’s feelings get hurt.

Where are the spiritual war cries? Where are the Elijahs and Pauls and John the Baptists? Where are the men who speak the truth even if it costs them everything?

Church has become so soft that men either check out or blend in. But here’s the truth:

Jesus flipped tables. He didn’t just hug lambs and whisper parables.

He called out sin, rebuked religious leaders, and marched toward His crucifixion like a warrior.

And if you’re following that same Christ, you’re not called to be passive either.

It’s Time to Rise Up

Men—especially men of faith—we’re in a war. Not just for culture, but for souls. Your family needs your strength. Your church needs your leadership. Your country needs your spine.

And don’t buy the lie that your past disqualifies you. God loves using flawed men. David was an adulterer. Peter was a hothead. Paul was a murderer. And yet they stood tall because they stood on the Word.

So be that man. The one who fights for his home, bows only to Christ, and leads even when it’s unpopular.

• Pray with your kids.

• Take your wife to Mass.

• Call out garbage when you see it.

• Say no to sin—even when it costs you friends.

• Stand up in a world that desperately wants you silent.

Because if we don’t reclaim real manhood, the enemy wins by default.

And I don’t know about you—but I refuse to bow.
