Peaceful at Heart Audiobook - Anabaptist Reflections on Healthy Masculinity Mennonite Men
-
- Arts
While there are plenty of books by men, for men, on the topic of “Christian masculinity” these books generally fail to address men’s propensities for violence and the traditional inequity between men and women, often endorsing inequity and sanctioning aggressive behavior as an appropriate “manly” response to conflict. Peaceful at Heart cuts through this conversation by offering a uniquely Anabaptist Christian perspective on masculinity. The vision of masculinity presented in this book is more peaceful, just, caring, and life-giving for men. See how to live as a peaceful man in a violent world.
