How Christianity Makes Men Better | Guest: Nancy Pearcey (Part Two) | Ep 833

Today we're joined by Nancy Pearcey, author of "Love Thy Body" and "The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes," for part two of our discussion on the biblical view of the body and the philosophy of “toxic masculinity.” We start off with the reality that one's view of God determines one's view of masculinity. We look at ancient philosophers as well as Charles Darwin, who all believed in an innate inferiority of women. Meanwhile, it's Christians who have been trying to champion the dignity of women – it's Christianity that gives a rich, full understanding of masculinity that no other ideology does. We discuss the importance of the physical strength of men and how while feminism calls them to repress it, Christianity calls them to redirect it to something that fulfills its purpose.

Nancy Pearcey is the author of The Toxic War on Masculinity: How Christianity Reconciles the Sexes, as well as Love Thy Body, The Soul of Science, Saving Leonardo, Finding Truth, and Total Truth. She is professor and scholar in residence at Houston Christian University. 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."
