Toxic War on Masculinity (Nancy Pearcey) #93

Bumper Sticker Faith

Today’s guest is Professor Nancy Pearcey.** We talk about her latest book The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes. She traces the history of ideas surrounding masculinity, while at the same time encouraging men to be better husbands, fathers, and friends. We talk about her own tragic past, how she found healing, and how to deal with toxic men. She also debunks modern myths surrounding masculinity with the best research and data. Men, women, and the church need to hear her message.

Pearcey’s earlier books include Love Thy Body: Answering Hard Questions about Life and Sexuality, The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and two ECPA Gold Medallion Award Winners: How Now Shall We Live (coauthored with Harold Fickett and Chuck Colson) and Total Truth. Her books have been translated into 19 languages. She is professor and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University. A former agnostic, Pearcey has spoken at universities such as Princeton, Stanford, USC, and Dartmouth. She has been quoted in The New Yorker and Newsweek, highlighted as one of the five top women apologists by Christianity Today, and hailed in The Economist as "America's pre-eminent evangelical Protestant female intellectual."

**We apologize, we had technical difficulties throughout the episode, and the feed for Sam’s cohost was lost. But, we managed to preserve this version of our conversation between Sam and Nancy for your consideration and enjoyment. We are certain this will not detract from the wisdom you will glean from Professor Pearcey.
