As much as it may distress us, our boys are future men. When Theodore Roosevelt taught Sunday school for a time, a boy showed up one Sunday with a black eye. He admitted he had been fighting and on a Sunday too. He told the future president that a bigger boy had been pinching his sister, and so he fought him. TR told him that he had done perfectly right and gave him a dollar. The stodgy vestrymen thought this was a bit much, and so they let their exuberant Sunday school teacher go. What a loss.Unbelief cannot look past surfaces. Unbelief squashes; faith teaches. Faith takes a boy aside and tells him that this part of what he did was good, while that other part of what he did got in the way. “And this is how to do it better next time.”
As we look to Scripture for patterns of masculinity for our sons, we find them manifested perfectly in the life of the Lord Jesus Christ. He is the one who set the ultimate pattern for friendship, for courage, for faithfulness, and integrity.

Unmasking Male Depression
$18.99Add to cartDepression is a secret pain at the core of many men’s lives, and one that goes largely undiagnosed and untreated. The consequences of not treating male depression are extremely serious. Studies show that suicide is more common in men than women, and tha the male suicide rate is three times higher at midlife than at any other life stage. In Unmasking Male Depression, Dr. Archibald Hart explores the many forms of depression and gives tools for coping with and healing depression in men. Hart also examines the lives of Christian leaders who struggled with depression, such as Charles Spurgeon, Martin Luther, and John Calvin, to reveal the myths surrounding this illness.

Passion Power And Praise
$10.99Add to cartPassion, Power, and Praise describes a vision of male spirituality that is modeled by God’s relationship with David-the hero-king of biblical history who ruled over Israel and Judah a thousand years before the birth of Christ-and is fulfilled in Jesus of Nazareth, often called the “son of David.” The author’s hope is that as men see the way God was at work in the life of David, they will discover new ways in which God may be at work in their lives and will be led to a life filled with robust passion, spiritual power, and joyful praise.

Growth Into Manhood
$15.99Add to cartWhat happens when a boy grows physically into an adult male but misses some of the experiences and relationships that help form complete manhood? Many such boys will grow up with homosexual attractions; others may be heterosexual but will lack a true sense of their manhood. Alan Medinger writes for such men and for those who care about them.
Within the context of his own release from homosexuality and his growth into “confident and comfortable” manhood, Medinger offers hope to others. For homosexually oriented men, such growth is an essential but often overlooked step in the process of healing. This ground-breaking study could well change many lives. -

IVP Print On Demand TitleLike a rushing current in a dark river, temptations flood all around us. Every believer has felt the undertow. And some, even some prominent Christian leaders, have not been able to keep their heads above water.
How can a man stand against these forces? How do men experience common temptations and what can be done about them? Tom Eisenman gives a man’s perspective on these and other tough issues. In straightforward language he honestly discusses the difficulties he and others have had in avoiding common stumbling blocks in the Christian walk. More than that, in a personal and practical way he shows how deliverance is possible even from besetting sins.
He doesn’t stop there. In a chapter for women, he tells how they can keep from contributing to their husband’s problem and suggests what to do when a man resists help. Finally, he offers general strategies for all of us on how to oppose temptation and find freedom from the evil that binds us.

The women’s movement, popular books, and male images on television and in films have all contributed to men’s uncertainty about themselves.
