Braxton Brady believes that today’s world is in need of authentic, Godly men. As the chaplain of Presbyterian Day School (PDS) in Memphis, Tennessee, Brady has learned firsthand that manhood is not simply a matter of age. It’s a matter of intention.

Brady’s position and community offers him a unique perspective on the issue. During the day he serves at a prestigious school in an affluent area. Yet his home is in the inner city of Memphis, offering an eye-opening look at the challenges young men face no matter their social or economic status.

“I’ve learned that there is a void for young men that is not being taught.” That void inspired Brady to develop Flight Plan with co-author and colleague Lee Burns.

“I hope to call dads to be strategic with their kids, and intentional with their boys,” Brady says. “And to help dads navigate their sons through middle school and high school on their way to adulthood.”

Brady and his wife, Carrie, have three children.

“I hope to call dads to be strategic with their kids, and intentional with their boys and to help dads navigate their sons through middle school and high school on their way to adulthood.”

"More than anybody I know, Lee Burns and Braxton Brady know boys. They also know how to make men. Flight Plan is their curriculum for boys who want to become men, and I highly recommend it."
