Biblical Masculinity in a Confused Age
Pastor Josh Smith addresses the growing hunger among young men to recover a true sense of masculinity. He contrasts the shallow cultural answers — money, muscles, and moxie — with the rich biblical vision of what it means to be a man.
Pastor Smith shows how feminism has distorted both sexes: women are told to become like deficient men, while men are told to become more feminine. He exposes the toxic lies being sold to young men today and presents the biblical solution: manners (godly character and self-control), a mandate (the creation calling to work, lead, provide, and love a wife and children), and mentors (older men who intentionally disciple the next generation).
This lecture was given at the inaugural “Peter Jones Lectures”– The God of Sex: Male and Female He Created Them.
