Birth Control for Men?

We then asked why male contraceptives might be in such high demand. To do this, we went on a brief excursion about The Lie: Women are exactly like men, and should be treated exactly like them. We also talked about how The Lie never really works, because men and women will always be fundamentally different. And when we crash into this fact, we often turn on the men to “level the playing field.”

Abortion is a Men’s Issue: Part 2

In Part 1, I relayed a conversation I had with a man on an airplane who recited the standard line about abortion being a "woman's choice" to justify his lack of opinion on the matter. I expressed my recent conviction about how wrong this perspective is, as well as my growing frustration with men who shirk their responsibility to speak up for the vulnerable.

Four Ways Culture is Attacking Manhood

Four principles of manhood that our society is attacking vigorously: #1: Men are to take dominion over the earth (Gen. 1:28). This was included in God's first set of commands to Adam and still remains a central imperative for men today.
