Real Man

by Edwin Louis Cole

Braving today's masculinity maze, with its confused images that distort real manhood, requires courage and wisdom. Edwin Louis Cole, as a mentor, friend, and spiritual father, declares a model for manhood that is infallible, functional, and yet feasible the manhood of Christlikeness. Real Man rips apart unfulfilling stereotypes, smothers the pressure of unrealistic demands, exposes cheap substitutes and sordid imitations of true manhood while giving a man the power he needs to obtain the spirit and conviction of being a real man. Real Man addresses the full range of a man's life marriage, finances, friendships, success, failure, parenting, and spirituality. Jesus Christ overcomes substitute manliness and sets the standard for real manhood to help men be real.
