The role and responsibilities of godly men are being assailed from every side. Some react to the misbehavior of a few men and insist that we’re too strong, too demanding, too . . . almost everything. But others look at men cowering under this pressure and prod us to stand up tall. What’s the answer? We need to look to Jesus as our Savior, our hope, and our model. Jesus was strong and secure enough to be exquisitely tender. When self-righteous people ostracized the broken and despised, He stepped in to care for them. He was humble without being weak and powerful without being overbearing.
In this book, Michael Bowen shares his story of finding true courage and purpose as he has walked with Jesus. He challenges us to dig deeper into God’s magnificent grace—and hang out with men who have responded to this challenge – so that we become more kind, wise, and brave than we’ve ever been before.
