Today, Nancy DeMoss-Walgamuth admits something.

Well, the subject we're talking about today is one that I will confess I had not given a lot of thought to before this series.

And in fact, I was tempted to bring in a guest teacher today.

And when I tell you what the topic is, you'll know why.

You're listening to the Reviver Hearts podcast with Nancy DeMoss Walgamous, author of Incomparable.

For February 29th, 2024, I'm Dana Gresh.

In the season leading up to Resurrection Sunday, we're focusing on Christ.

This teaching series formed the basis for Nancy's new devotional titled, Incomparable, 50 Days with Jesus.

Now what topic tempted Nancy to call in a guest speaker?

We come to a chapter in that book entitled The Manliness of Christ.

I always knew it was challenging to be a true woman, but as I studied this, I realized it is no less

challenging to be a true man. And Jesus, of course, is the true man. Unfortunately, our concept

in our culture of what it means to be a man, to be manly, has been really confused. It's been

really distorted. I mean, what is a true man? Is it detached,

macho, gun-slinging John Wayne? Never apologize, Mr. Is it Rambo, the ultimate warrior, but a loner? Is that

what it means to be a true man? Is it somebody who's overbearing and arrogant,

controlling? Is it a man who's wild at heart? Or is it a man, you know, a Tom Hanks,

tender, sensitive, caring? What is a true man? Richard Phillips has written a book called

The Masculine Mandate.
