Manhood Restored by Eric Mason

Manhood Restored: How the Gospel Makes Men Whole - Leader Kit can get your group, or your entire congregation, on the same page about masculinity. The study is biblically rooted and gospel-centered. And you can be confident that each group is getting sound teaching, through the videos of Dr. Mason. Additional video features other men and their stories to help participants in the study understand they are not alone in their challenges. Manhood will always be in crisis until Jesus returns. But in Christ, men can be restored with ever increasing glory into the undefiled image of God. This six-session study leads men on a journey through masculinity, with Bible-study sessions on the problems men face, God's solutions, and the restorations of worldview, sexuality, vision, and family.

Although this study is theologically rich, it also has very practical components to give men the beginning steps to walk in gospel-centered manhood, including individual journaling exercises and personal interviews and testimonials included on the video.

• Small-group member Study Guide
• DVD with a promotional video and six 10- to 15-minute teaching sessions
