Men, let's be clear, A shadow has settled over our hearts, Challenges on multiple fronts-confusion around defining manhood, shifting standards of sexuality and gender, a polarizing cultural tide-have blurred and distorted our vision of manhood. And while critiques of the dangers of toxic masculinity or patriarchal systems are easy to come by, most men are struggling to find a healthy, purpose-filled vision of what it means to be a man. No wonder so many men today feel frustrated, adrift, paralyzed, and confused. Our purpose with this book is to address the forces that have created such chaos while offering a clear path to help you move ahead. Within these pages you will become freshly equipped to, fight the shadow of despair with hope, fight the shadow of loneliness with community, fight the shadow of shame with vulnerability, fight the shadow of lust with faithfulness, fight the shadow of ambition with a kingdom vision, fight the shadow of futility with calling, and fight the shadow of apathy with a cause. The crisis of masculinity must not have the last world. You can do this. We can do this. Embrace Jesus' vision for you as a man-a vision filled with strength and purpose you to become, the journey out of the shadows can start right now.
