Manual
for Men is
for men who are in the arena, warriors for Christ and His Church. It
is for those men who battle daily for their souls and for their
family. It is often a struggle to shed the sins and vices the world
offers men, but it’s a battle we must fight and win.
In
Part I, Bishop Thomas Olmsted calls for Catholic men to step up and
“into the breach” in service to God, their families, parishes,
and wider communities. In the course of his exhortation, Olmsted
unveils:
•How being a Christian man is far more than
physical prowess or worldly power
•Why the world and the
Church desperately need men—real men—to fight for them in
spiritual combat
•The vital importance of prayer and the
sacraments in the life of every man
•Why fatherhood, fully
understood, is so crucial for every man
•The value of devotion
to a patron saint (complete with 10 manly suggestions)
•Most
importantly, how men have the perfect model of man in Jesus Christ,
and how we can follow his example.
In Part II, Cook
presents a treasure trove of prayers, church teachings, and writings
from the saints that serve as a tremendous source of inspiration for
men seeking to become better men of God. It is at once an essential
guide and a profound book of prayers designed specifically for
men.
Now, perhaps more than ever, men need to be men. But
what it means to be a man has been twisted into a pale and mangled
image of true manhood. Manual
for Men serves
as a field guide and instruction manual for those husbands, fathers,
sons and brothers who would become real men of God— men who
protect, physically and spiritually, those entrusted to them; men who
sacrifice, pray, fight, love, and live by the example of
Christ
There is a battle for our souls, our families, our
world, and Our Lord calls us men to fight. Are you ready to answer
the call? Will you accept Bishop Olmsted’s plea to “engage in the
battle that is raging around you”?
