Free Stuff Fridays (Ligonier Ministries and Reformation Trust)

Free Stuff Fridays

This week’s Free Stuff Fridays is sponsored by Ligonier Ministries and Reformation Trust, who also sponsored the blog this week.

What does it mean to be a Christian man? In The Masculine Mandate, Richard Phillips looks back to the garden of Eden and highlights God’s calling for men in all the relationships of life: marriage, fatherhood, friendship, and church. Until Monday, Ligonier Ministries and Reformation Trust are offering the ebook edition as a free download for all Challies.com readers. Simply click here to order your free ebook. In addition, ten Free Stuff Fridays winners will receive the paperback edition.

Here’s what Iain Duguid had to say about The Masculine Mandate:

“In the face of the widespread confusion in our culture, Rick Phillips lays out the biblical mandate for men to work and keep the world around us. This book carefully avoids stereotypes and legalistic rules, while unfolding with clarity and practical simplicity the biblical vision of men as individuals and in relationships to other men, to our wives and children, and to the church of Jesus Christ. I learned much from this book and look forward to sharing it with my sons.”

    Sex, Self-Forgetfulness, and the Joy of Serving Your Spouse

    I often think there is a kind of paradoxical quality to sex within marriage. It’s paradoxical in that few things have greater ability to bring blessing (through its right use) or to bring cursing (through its misuse). Not only that, but few things bring greater joy to a marriage, and also, in so many cases,…
