To Be a Man

Description

What does it mean to become a man? In today’s culture the line between boyhood and manhood is vague. The late teens and early twenties have been hijacked by humanism and modernism. They have become a time of experimentation and freedom rather than a passage into manhood. Author James Stenson promotes a different use of this time of transition – teaching young men how to live in integrity and become men of virtue. He also promotes a redefinition of success that is not based only on the major choices – career and marriage – but also on the small, everyday choices that define who we become morally. Pulling from the experience of ordinary men, this book offers guidance on everything from choosing what books to read to choosing what friends to surround yourself with. All of this advice has as its goal to help form men of character.
