Aprašymas

Today's teenage boys and young men desperately need encouragement. Ironically, many need both an arm around the shoulder and a proverbial kick in the butt; both affirmation and challenge, and they need it from voices that acknowledge their emotional complexity while not apologizing for their intrinsic maleness.

In A Path to Manhood, author Paul Cumbo draws on his two-decades-plus experience of teaching, coaching, and mentoring teenage boys and young men to deliver concise, relatable messages on the pursuit of virtuous living. By eschewing the reductive depictions of masculinity in traditional culture, readers will better learn how to use personal strength for the betterment of themselves and others.

With compassion and conviction, Cumbo explores self-knowledge, friendship, education, finance, vocation, health, habits, love, marriage, faith, and fatherhood. While addressed directly to young guys themselves, the book will resonate with their parents, teachers, coaches, and mentors.

Combining skilled storytelling, a keen understanding of masculinity, practical spirituality, an inclusive attitude, and good-natured humor, A Path to Manhood invites today's young men to take an honest look at themselves, practice discernment, and make thoughtful decisions and takes readers on a compelling journey of the mind and heart.
