Man in the Gap

Welcome to Man in the Gap, a podcast for foster, adoptive, and kinship dads — and the men who dare to stand in the messy middle. I’m Vance Acker, a husband, a father, and a man called to show up even when it’s hard.Here, we tell the unfiltered truth about fatherhood in the trenches of foster care — the doubts, the breakthroughs, and the quiet faith that keeps us going.Inspired by Ezekiel 22:30, this space is for the men who say, ‘Here I am, Lord — I’ll stand in the gap.’
