Words That Shape Sons (with Peter Hamilton)

What does it look like for a father to intentionally shape the identity of his sons?

In this powerful conversation, Pete Alwinson and Jayson Quiñones sit down with Peter Hamilton, Marine veteran, real estate professional, husband, father of three sons, and grandfather, to explore biblical fatherhood and the lifelong calling of a dad. Peter shares how his Jamaican immigrant parents modeled hard work and faith, how his mother led him to Christ at nine years old, and how his father broke generational cycles by choosing presence over victimhood.

The heart of this episode centers on a bold and practical idea every dad can apply. Peter gave each of his sons a defining word over their lives: greatness, excellence, and leadership. He explains why identity must be bestowed by a father, not earned, and how speaking life into your children creates an anchor for their future. The conversation also tackles parenting adult children, transitioning from authority to friendship, loving unconditionally, and maintaining family unity across states and generations.

If you are a father, grandfather, or future dad, this episode will challenge you to step into your God given authority, speak blessing over your children, and lead your family with clarity and conviction.
