For Christian men searching for purpose, the crisis of masculinity is real.
But the solution isn't toxic bravado, gender erasure, or culture-war confusion. It's virtue.
In Men of Virtue, Zachary Wagner offers a distinctly Christian vision of masculinity inspired by the fruit of the Spirit that Paul commends to all believers. He shows us
● how the fruit of the Spirit guides character development;
● a nonpartisan, biblically grounded vision of masculinity; and
● what it looks like for men to live out scriptural virtues in distinct, embodied ways.
Moving through love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control, Wagner shows how these virtues uniquely shape men's strength, relationships, sexuality, ambition, and emotions.
Written for Christian men (and the women who love them), this fresh biblical vision calls men to a new kind of character and purpose--one grounded in Christlike discipleship rather than false cultural binaries. Men of Virtue is also a great resource for men's discipleship groups and campus ministry contexts.
