Masculinity (with Dr. Jeffery Ventrella)
Description
What does it mean to "be a man"? Our culture is wrestling with all kinds of definitions - from the hyper-masculine on one side to those on the other who claim there is no defining characteristics and we can completely decide for ourselves. But what does the Bible say about what it means to be a man? What does God's created order have to do with it? What characteristics should men aspire to?
Dr. Jeffery Ventrella has written extensively on the subject of the Bible and culture and provides a great framework for our discussion, including the pitfalls of social media's "man-o-sphere", and even mixed messages the church itself has sent young men over the last 20 years.
