It doesn’t take much to see that something is happening to males in our culture. They’re different. They’re becoming complacent and more feminine.

With his newest book, Paul Coughlin again brings to light the deteriorating condition of males in our world today with specific emphasis on what many churches are teaching them (or NOT teaching them). Coughlin urges the readers to follow him on a quest for thumos, the Greek word he uses to describe courageous faith. He calls on men to rise up within their homes and churches and be the men God created them to be—full of thumos.

If you’ve already heard about the feminization of men, this book will add more fuel to the fire. However, if this is all new to you, this book will get you thinking about the problem and offer some suggestions about what can be done about it.
