Kingdom Dad Roars
Kingdom Dad Roars is the podcast for divorced men who refuse to stay stuck. Hosted by a man who’s walked through the fire—divorce, bitterness, anger, and self-doubt—and came out the other side, this show is raw, real, and built for rebuilding your life.
Each week, you’ll get straight talk and practical tools on divorce recovery, confidence building, co-parenting, forgiveness, and living with purpose as a man of faith. No fluff, no “just move on” clichés—just proven strategies, Biblical truth, and the kind of encouragement you can only get from someone who’s been in the trenches.
Whether you’re feeling lost, weighed down by grudges, or unsure how to rebuild your identity, you’ll find clarity, brotherhood, and the steps to take back your power. From overcoming shame to creating a vision for your future, this is your place to sharpen your edge and reclaim your role as a Kingdom man.
If you’re ready to stop replaying the past, rebuild with confidence, and lead your life with strength and faith—this is your show.

Stop Protecting Your Kids From Hard Things: (You're Making Them Weak)
Your love is making your kids weak. And it's time someone told you.
You're emailing teachers for extensions. Dropping off forgotten lunches at school. Managing their homework calendar. Rescuing them from every consequence.
You think you're being an involved father. You're actually creating a child who can't function without you.
In this hard-hitting 20-minute episode, host Ronnie Armijo shares the wake-up call that changed everything:
The day he realized he wasn't preparing his son for life—he was crippling him. How constantly rescuing his 14-year-old from forgotten textbooks, missed assignments, and natural consequences was building a teenager who couldn't remember anything... because he never had to.
You'll discover:
- Why divorced dads fall into the "rescue trap" harder than anyone (and how guilt drives you to overcompensate)
- The three levels of struggle every kid MUST experience to become a capable adult
- What happens when you picture your 19-year-old at college with no dad to rescue them—and why that image should terrify you
- The exact conversation to have with your kids when you stop doing things for them they should do themselves
- How letting your child fail a class might be the greatest gift you ever give them
- Why "I forgot" should never be an acceptable excuse—and what to do when your kid uses it
This isn't gentle parenting advice. This is a wake-up call.
The real world doesn't care about your child's excuses. Their future boss won't accept "I forgot." Their college professor won't give extensions because they "need extra support." Their landlord won't waive late fees because life got hard.
If you don't teach them to handle consequences now—when stakes are low and you're there to help them process failure—life will teach them when stakes are high and you're nowhere to be found.
Perfect for:
- Divorced dads tempted to overcompensate with constant rescuing
- Fathers who manage their kids' lives more than their own
- Men raising teenagers who can't seem to remember basic responsibilities
- Dads tired of being their child's personal delivery service
- Any father brave enough to ask: "Am I helping or am I hurting?"
Warning: This episode will make you uncomfortable. It challenges modern parenting culture. It gives your kids permission to fail. And it demands you stop protecting them from the very struggles that will make them strong.
Your kids don't need a dad who removes every obstacle. They need a dad who believes they're strong enough to overcome obstacles themselves.
Listen now and discover why the hardest thing you do as a father might be the most loving thing you ever do.
