  Many of us spend our days feeling like we're the only one with problems, while everyone else has their act together. But the sooner we realize that everyone struggles like we do, the sooner we can show grace to ourselves and others. 
   
   
   
  In Low Anthropology, popular author and theologian David Zahl explores how our ideas about human nature influence our expectations in friendship, work, marriage, and politics. We all go through life with an "anthropology"—an idea about what humans are like, our potentials and our limitations. A high anthropology—thinking optimistically about human nature—can breed perfectionism, anxiety, burnout, loneliness, and resentment. Meanwhile, Zahl invites listeners into a biblically rooted and surprisingly life-giving low anthropology, which fosters hope, deep connection with others, lasting love, vulnerability, compassion, and happiness. 
   
   
   
  Zahl offers a liberating view of human nature, sin, and grace, showing why the good news of Christianity is both urgent and appealing. By embracing a more accurate view of human beings, listeners will discover a true and lasting hope.

  The making of a godly man requires hard, deliberate choices over time and reliance upon his relationship with God—it's not for the fainthearted. A boy does not become a man when he turns eighteen, but when he takes on the character and habits of a man for the good of those around him. 
   
   
   
  Exploring what these godly character traits are, pastor Noah Herrin offers real-world wisdom for fifty-two key challenges men face on their journey into manhood. Each chapter of this action-packed book calls men higher, addressing one obstacle and providing hands-on biblical solutions, practical next steps, habits to work toward, and truths to believe. Covering core areas of personal, professional, and spiritual life, topics include how to own mistakes, relate to parents, choose the right mate, use time effectively, humble yourself, manage your money, chase the right goals, engage in community, be a finisher, and much more. 
   
   
   
  The world needs not just good men, but godly men. Jesus is our model of manhood, and when men act like Jesus, the world is different.
