What Is Christian Masculinity?
Strength, Tenderness, and Becoming Like Christ
Christian masculinity can become a performance of toughness, control, and never needing help. James asks what Christ is actually making a man into: someone who tells the truth, takes responsibility, seeks help, serves without domination, and remains tender enough to love. From Jesus’ belovedness before his public ministry to the strength of the cross, the episode follows the ordinary work of becoming faithful one day at a time.
