Is masculinity a bad thing? In popular culture, it seems that it has become socially acceptable to attack men simply for being men! The media has even gone as far as categorizing all forms of male headship and authority in the home as oppressive, tyrannical, and patriarchal. Has the Church contributed to the demonization of all things masculine? And if so, what can we do to stop it? In this week's podcast, Christian apologist, scholar, and author, Nancy Pearcey joins Frank to discuss her upcoming and unexpectedly controversial book, The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, which focuses largely on the origin of "toxic masculinity" as a concept. Frank and Nancy discuss questions like: What historical events led to the rise of "toxic masculinity"? What are the two competing scripts that men struggle with internally? How has Darwinism contributed to "toxic masculinity"? How do Christian men shatter negative stereotypes? What example of masculinity do we find in Jesus? Throughout this episode, Nancy will burst some common myths, encourage men to embrace their masculinity, and also expose the radical ways in which evangelicalism continues to better societies worldwide. The current research shows that Christian men are doing very well in our culture, and it's time that we applaud them for it! Nancy Pearcey is the author of The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, as well as Love Thy Body, The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and Total Truth. She is a professor and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University.

How did an ideology arise that condemns masculinity as dangerous and destructive? For example, a headline in the Washington Post reads: ”Why Can't We Hate Men?" A trendy hashtag is #KillAllMen. Books are sold titled I Hate Men, No Good Men, and Are Men Necessary? Nancy Pearcey joins the podcast to discuss her upcoming book which takes readers through American History to discover how the secular script for masculinity turned toxic--and what action we can take to fix it.We often hear that Exhibit A of toxic behavior is evangelical Christian men. But the social sciences tell a very different story. Studies find that family men who attend church regularly test out as the most loving husbands and the most engaged fathers. They have the lowest rate of divorce and--here's the real stunner--the lowest rate of domestic violence of any group in America.The sociological facts explode anti-male stereotypes and show that classic Christianity has the power to overcome toxic behavior and reconcile the sexes.------------------------------------------------------------------This video is sponsored by:GOOD RANCHERSGood Ranchers: American Meat Delivered Looking for a GREAT Fathers Day Gift?Subscribe and lock in your price for 2 full years!.Also use the code, ALISA, and get $30.00 off your first box!Go to goodranchers.com/alisa for more informationSOUTHERN EVANGELICAL SEMINARYSteadfast in the TruthGo to ses.edu/alisa for more information about Southern Evangelical Seminary and to download your free ebook. --------------------------------------------------------------------Support us on Patreon: www.patreon.com/alisachildersTo order “Another Gospel”: https://www.alisachilders.com/anothergospelTo order "Live Your Truth": https://alisachilders.com/live-your-truth-and-other-lies/For Alisa's Merch: https://alisachilders.creator-spring.comFor all links to Alisa’s recommended reading, visit the Alisa Childers Amazon Store: https://www.amazon.com/shop/alisachildersTo see what gear Alisa uses to record her podcast, go to:https://kit.co/alisachildersPotential Sponsors: https://alisachilders.com/sponsor-request-form/Product links are affiliate links which means if you buy something we'll receive a small commission.
