In the beginning God created us male and female, with intention and purpose. Yet, more and more our culture seems to pit women against men, even to the point of not liking men and seeing their role as harmful. In this episode, we discuss the roots of toxic masculinity and the good news we can see in Biblical manhood (and womanhood) with esteemed scholar Nancy Pearcey, author of "The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes." Our discussion includes:
Goodness of God's design for male and female
Hostile cultural views of men and masculinity
Favorable data and good news about the impact and role of Jesus-following men
Need for healing and restoration as we seek to have a culture of honor
How to support Biblical manhood, supporting and developing image-bearing manhood
