The Case for Biblical Masculinity
To be Biblical men, we must be both rugged and reasonable. Both bold and gracious. Both direct and humble. We must stop feminizing Jesus. We must stop stripping men of all that makes them men and calling that Christianity.
The ideal Christian man is a resilient, capable, selfless servant and Christian soldier. He is both a sage and a disciple. He is dangerous yet controlled. He is aggressive, yet calm. He is skillful yet humble. He is prepared yet trusts in Divine Providence. He governs himself in righteousness and true holiness. This site is a small window into my endeavor to grow into all these things.
Reason Together.
Join me on the Reason Together Podcast, the podcast for Christians who think about stuff. Hear the discussions that happen when two like-minded (but polar opposite) Christians try to apply the Scriptures to everything by reasoning together.
