I want to 23 00:01:19,280 --> 00:01:19,600 Speaker 1: ask you. 24 00:01:19,520 --> 00:01:22,480 Speaker 2: You know, I know you got your menory program going on, 25 00:01:22,640 --> 00:01:24,840 Speaker 2: but can you just explain to some people who don't 26 00:01:24,840 --> 00:01:25,400 Speaker 2: have a mentor. 27 00:01:25,440 --> 00:01:28,440 Speaker 1: Why having a mentor is important? What's the benefit of 28 00:01:28,480 --> 00:01:29,160 Speaker 1: having a mentor? 29 00:01:30,120 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 2: Well, manhood is very difficult, no, ladies. Plus again, this 30 00:01:33,920 --> 00:01:36,760 Speaker 2: is not to say the moment hoood isn't so just 31 00:01:36,880 --> 00:01:41,280 Speaker 2: I'm answering a question for the boy's minoring camp. Manhood 32 00:01:41,360 --> 00:01:46,480 Speaker 2: is very, very difficult, and because manhood is supposed to 33 00:01:46,640 --> 00:01:51,200 Speaker 2: have a leadership component to it is one of the 34 00:01:51,240 --> 00:01:57,200 Speaker 2: things that makes it incredibly challenging. And because manhood also 35 00:01:57,440 --> 00:01:59,560 Speaker 2: has some elements to it. 36 00:01:59,680 --> 00:02:00,640 Speaker 1: That's it seemed to. 37 00:02:00,720 --> 00:02:04,520 Speaker 2: Not being shot sought not excuse me, not being taught 38 00:02:04,920 --> 00:02:09,440 Speaker 2: and shared with this younger generation, that we are supposed 39 00:02:09,440 --> 00:02:14,240 Speaker 2: to be protectives, that we are supposed to be providers. 40 00:02:14,720 --> 00:02:20,359 Speaker 2: That is what manhood is. We are to protect, provide, 41 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:26,320 Speaker 2: and preserve. That's a must, that's our job. But because 42 00:02:26,360 --> 00:02:28,880 Speaker 2: that's not being taught a lot of times, when a 43 00:02:28,919 --> 00:02:31,919 Speaker 2: young man doesn't have a male figure in his life, 44 00:02:32,680 --> 00:02:36,840 Speaker 2: it's like an explorer without a map. You just don't 45 00:02:36,880 --> 00:02:40,440 Speaker 2: know the way there and it becomes so challenging and 46 00:02:40,560 --> 00:02:41,360 Speaker 2: trying to learn. 47 00:02:41,200 --> 00:02:44,280 Speaker 1: This thing called manhood on your own. Oh my god. 48 00:02:44,680 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: So what happens to these young people and all men 49 00:02:48,240 --> 00:02:51,399 Speaker 2: is you will want to be a man, and then 50 00:02:51,440 --> 00:02:54,000 Speaker 2: you are faced with the choices. You get to be 51 00:02:54,040 --> 00:02:57,639 Speaker 2: a good man or a sorry man, and you get 52 00:02:57,680 --> 00:02:58,919 Speaker 2: to decide along the way. 53 00:02:59,000 --> 00:03:02,160 Speaker 1: If you surrounded by sorry men. 54 00:03:03,560 --> 00:03:07,440 Speaker 2: And that's your vision of what it is strong possibility, 55 00:03:07,480 --> 00:03:10,080 Speaker 2: that's the one you'll be. So what we do with 56 00:03:10,120 --> 00:03:12,959 Speaker 2: our mentoring programs we put a lot of strong, positive 57 00:03:13,000 --> 00:03:16,240 Speaker 2: men in front of these young guys, oftentimes for the 58 00:03:16,280 --> 00:03:19,040 Speaker 2: first time, and that gives them some insight as to 59 00:03:19,080 --> 00:03:21,920 Speaker 2: what it truly looks like. And we embed these principles 60 00:03:21,919 --> 00:03:24,640 Speaker 2: in them for four days and we teach them a 61 00:03:24,639 --> 00:03:27,040 Speaker 2: lot of team bill and stuff, and life gets good 62 00:03:27,120 --> 00:03:30,480 Speaker 2: and we thank God for the boys minering camp. 63 00:03:30,600 --> 00:03:32,760 Speaker 1: Ladies and gentlemen, it's time go to break. 64 00:03:33,160 --> 00:03:39,720 Speaker 2: Sureley, you're listening Steve Harvey Morning Show
