Summary

Men were made to rule. They always have and always will. Nothing can change that. Nothing will. It is not a question of whether men will be ruling, but which ones and how.

Our modern society has called for us to “smash the patriarchy”, and the church has not done much better. Instead of telling men how they can hone and refine their aggressive traits, the church has told men that they should aspire to be meek servant-leaders, and when a man shows any signs of independence, he is shown the door.

This leaves most young men lost. They don’t know what to do or how to improve, so they watch Jordan Peterson videos on YouTube to learn how to grow in their masculinity and sense of mission. In this book, Michael Foster and Bnonn Tennant remind men that their natural aggressive instincts are gifts from God that are meant to be used for the kingdom. 

Men are supposed to found households, join brotherhoods, and work toward a mission. It's Good to Be a Man offers men a quick guide to where they are and how they can improve. God made men to be strong and aggressive risk-takers. This is a feature, not a bug. Foster and Tennant remind us that it’s good to be a man.

Great Book

I have really enjoyed this book from start to finish. Being a young man myself trying to grow in that spiritual gym this has helped me massively to get on the right track. Chase a mission not the girl! Glory be to God!

Focused, Short & Easy to Understand

This is a very clear practical book. Easy to listen to. And clear in its intent. I’ve already recommened to several friends after this was recommended in my Men’s Reading Group at church.
