The Manual: Getting Masculinity Right

SKU: 9781925424713
Author: Al Stewart | Publisher: Matthias Media

Understanding what it means to be male has never been more confusing. As more behaviours are called out for being patriarchal or toxic, how does a man navigate these choppy waters? Is there such a thing as healthy masculinity? Are there any good men out there leading the way?

In The Manual, Al Stewart sifts through the current debates and challenges facing men, offering practical wisdom and insights on how to live as a man valued by others. More importantly, he digs into what the Bible has to say about manhood and about how being a follower of Jesus is central to loving and serving others.

Combining decades of experience as a son, husband, father, friend and pastor, Al’s down-to-earth, no-nonsense, honest approach to life will help any man, young or old, who wants to use his life for good.

A useful and practical guide

Al has done men a great service by writing this book.

Aptly titled, it covers a range of topics to help men catch a vision for what manhood is and how to go about pursuing maturity.

Starting with the problems, his prescriptions are solid and based in not just biblical but the latest in contemporary thinking.

While I disagreed that his definition was not entirely right (women too can have and exercise power, as well as leadership), that did not detract from the book’s overall usefulness.

One to read an apply (almost) everything within it.

The Manual: Getting Masculinity Right

Having heard about this book from a friend who has grand sons
I read it and found that it in typical Al Stewart style covers helpfully the current trends (voices) in society that are not helpful for young men and teenage boys about their place and roles in society as they grow up.
The second half is a good treatment of how the bible and christian society views the best messages and principles that can be shared and taught to men or all ages as they navigate the various "Roles" and situations that men may find themselves in as they negotiate living in the here and now of western "working" society.
I have given several copies to my grand children and some God children and asked their fathers to read the books also and chat to the boys about them in their family situations.
