Be the Father

Your Sons Need

Not perfect. Present. Intentional. A brotherhood of men committed to raising the next generation with courage, faith, and sacrificial love.

The Challenge

Most Dads Are
Flying Blind

We live in a generation where fathers are more present physically than ever — and more absent relationally than ever. We scroll. We work. We provide. But we forget to lead.

Nobody handed us a blueprint. Our own fathers were often figuring it out too. And so the cycle continues — good men raising sons who don't know who they are, where they're going, or that their dad was paying attention.

That ends with you.

“The greatest thing a father can do is to be present — not just physically, but with his whole heart.”

The Founder

Jeremy Stiffler

Dad. Worship leader. Songwriter. AV director at Man of War Church. Father of two boys (8 & 11). Not a professional — a man who got serious about being present.

“I kept running into guys who loved their families but had no one holding them accountable. No brotherhood. No one asking, ‘How are you really doing as a dad?’”

LionHeart started as a lunch table and a few honest questions. It's growing into something the next generation will be grateful for.

Our Curriculum

Rooted in Proven Wisdom

Our 7-week small group is built around Jon Tyson's The Intentional Father — a practical, biblical framework for raising sons of character.

We don't believe there's a 5-step system to being a great dad. We believe there's a God who designed fatherhood, and His Word is sufficient. This book helps us apply it practically — together, in community, with accountability.

The First Step

The Front Door Is a Lunch Table

Pull up a chair. Every great brotherhood starts with one man deciding to show up. That man can be you.
