Seven Biblical Principles for Being the Man God Wants You to Be
In a world where masculinity is often associated with toxicity, what does it mean to "be a man"?
In a straightforward and empathetic way, Matt Fuller gets beyond our culture's confusion and puts stereotypes to the side as he mines what the Bible says is distinctive about being a man. He outlines a positive vision of biblical masculinity and shows what that might look like in real life today. Men will be encouraged to be sacrificial when leading, work hard, protect others, and listen to what others want from them.
Whatever your personality and interests—whether you would rather skin a rabbit, read a book, or remodel your house—this book will give you confidence and direction to be the man God wants you to be.

Endorsements:
This is one of the best Christian books I have read in the past five years. Matt Fuller has the courage to speak to a vital question and to do so with refreshing boldness, enviable clarity, loving warmth, and some delicious humor. His practical pastoral experience breathes through every chapter. Every man—and woman too—will benefit from reading it, and it will make a superb volume for a book group. ~ Christopher Ash, Writer-in_residence, Tyndale House, Cambridge
