    About this audiobook

    The male is in crisis. Traditional roles once gave men stability and continuity from generation to generation. Today, the world is sending out conflicting signals about what it means to be a man. Many men are questioning who they are and what roles they fulfill in life—as a male, a husband, and a father—leaving them frustrated and causing them to live far below their potential. Best-selling author Dr. Myles Munroe examines cultural attitudes toward men and addresses critical issues such as: 
    • How can men gain their footing in the ever-shifting environment of cultural expectations?
    • What does it mean to be male?
    • What definition of masculinity should men adopt?
    • What roles should men fulfill—in the workplace and in the home?
    • What do gender roles have to do with the male's purpose?
    • What are the differences between males and females?
    • How are men and women meant to relate to one another?
    • How can a man build a better life for himself, his family, and the world?
    When men understand the purpose God has given them and the true design of their relationship with women, they will be free to fulfill their destiny and potential. Expanded edition with study guide material included.

      I truly enjoyed the wisdom of Dr. Monroe. He is a legend who died way before his time.

      He definitely tells it as it is.
    • 5/5
      Great explanation in understanding God's purpose and design of men. Helped me as a woman to understand why men are the way they are in certain situations. Gave practical principles in better communicating with the men in my life.
    • 5/5
      Clearly articulated and impact-filled. Every man needs to read this and rediscover God's design for manhood. So that we can all represent God to the world as men, together.
