Act Like Men

by Richard Phillips, Tom Parks (Narrator)

The Mentoring Project’s flagship mentoring resource is its field guides. These long-form pieces provide practical guidance on various aspects of life as a Christian, like finances, purity, technology, work, and more. Written by pastors and other Christian leaders, these field guides provide a biblical framework for mentors and mentees to discuss these topics and grow together.

Phillips sought to provide some Bible centered guidelines/commentary on manhood and male roles grounded in his understanding of Genesis 1-3. Phillips moves from “general” to specific, considering the identity and commission God gave to Adam as the first man and then moving more broadly into roles/attributes that should therefore characterize manhood/ men in their various stages (boys, husbands, single men, etc).

Although I don’t think I would always agree with Phillips (particularly in some of his interpretive methodology), this was a helpful introduction (for me) into the manhood conversation.
