Man Up!

THINK SERVICE is something for the old church mothers, women, and girls? Think that you should be served, but not serve? Think again! If you call yourself a Christian, service is for you, man of God - and it is imperative that your life reflect God's call to service. In this exciting book, get your zest for service back - or, if you've never really had one (especially if you think service is for girls) learn why service is awesome - and the most manly thing a man can do this side of heaven. In this exciting book written with good humor, warmth, and insight into the world of male service, Dr. Lee Ann B. Marino lays out the foundation as to why men often don't want to serve others, how current teachings about gender hamper male attitudes about proper service, studies on male Biblical figures and how and why they served, and ways that men can be more involved in ministry, marriage, family, friendships, and beyond. This book includes special chapters on men attending church, men who are married to women in ministry when they themselves are not, and service in men's ministry. Tackling many topics most ministers don't often address with Christian men, this book has the power to transform the way a man perceives himself - and his willingness to do for others as part of his Christian identity.
