In moments of weariness—whether from a long workweek, a string of missed workouts, or the pressure of familial responsibilities—Christian men often grapple with the question: Are we truly honoring God through our physical health? In War on Men: Why Society Hates Them and Why We Need Them, author Al Perrotta dives deep into these struggles, lifting the veil on a culture that seems to dismiss the importance of strong, purpose-driven men. This engaging resource invites us not only to reflect but to act, reminding us of our biblical duty to steward our physical health with discipline, strength, and conviction.
