The Story
In Men of Virtue, How the Fruit of the Spirit Forms Male Character in the Modern World, a New Testament scholar provides a fresh look at the Bible's answer to the question of how men ought to live in light of the good news, showing how focusing on virtue offers modern Christian men a distinctly masculine and radical vision of discipleship.
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.
The fruit of the Spirit can shape our vision for biblical manhood in today's complex world. In Men of Virtue, Zachary Wagner offers a distinctly Christian vision of masculinity inspired by the virtues Paul commends to all believers. Perfect for men's discipleship groups and campus ministry contexts, this resource shows readers
- How the fruit of the Spirit guides biblical character development.
- A nonpartisan, theologically grounded vision of masculinity; and
- What it looks like for men to live out scriptural virtues in distinct, embodied ways.
Written for Christian men (and the women who love them), this book offers a fresh biblical vision of masculinity that calls men into a new kind of strength, character, and purpose.
