Even though Hollywood extols the virtues of the “sensitive man,” when it comes to real life, guys are generally expected to tough it out. Emotions are downplayed, and failure, hardship and struggle are conversational taboos. But is that what God wants from men? Hardly.

What’s his vision for today’s generation of God-built men? Listen in; it’s a big one.
