Summary

If you had to choose just three words to describe biblical masculinity, what would they be? How would you explain what makes a Christian man truly a Christian man?

Paul Tripp Ministries is thrilled to introduce Men of Faith, a free teaching series where Paul opens Scripture to show how God calls men to be fearless, tender, and thankful—three surprising traits that define a life shaped by grace.

All three audio-only sessions are available right now on our podcast. You can also stream or download the full video series, which includes a robust study guide with discussion questions perfect for one-on-one discipleship, small groups, or church-wide men’s ministry. You’ll also find conversation prompts for young men, making Men of Faith an ideal resource for dads and sons or youth groups.
