In this opening chapter of Power of 4, Mark Warren confronts a quiet crisis affecting millions of men today — the struggle to understand true masculinity. Across generations, classes, and cultures, men are losing their sense of direction and identity. Many are adrift, playing roles they think they’re supposed to fill instead of living out their authentic selves. Mark unpacks how this crisis of isolation begins early in life and why genuine brotherhood is essential to rediscovering purpose. This first chapter sets the stage for the journey ahead — an invitation to rebuild manhood through truth, accountability, and the strength of a small, committed brotherhood.
In Chapter 1: I’ve Had This Problem About Being a Man Since I Was a Kid, Mark Warren introduces the heart of Power of 4 — a call to men to rediscover authentic masculinity through Christ-centered brotherhood.
You’ll hear about:
Why men across all walks of life struggle with identity and purpose
The subtle ways isolation takes root early in a man’s life
How cultural expectations lead men to “play roles” instead of live truthfully
Why real change begins when men walk together with honesty and accountability
This chapter sets the foundation for everything that follows in Power of 4 — a movement to help men break free from isolation and live out God’s design for manhood in community.
