Last week we published a blog introducing our speakers, the schedule, and theme for this year’s The Man Conference. This conference is now just under two weeks away.

This week, we’d like to highlight some books that we will be featuring at the Resource Center over the next two weeks. While these books aren’t all about men, then are about the things that men should be largely about: knowing God, purity, leadership, being conformed to Christ, guarding doctrine, family.

• A Guide to Biblical Manhood, Randy Stinson and Dan Dumas
• Biblical Eldership, Alexander Strauch
• Church Planter: The Man, the Message, the Mission, Darrin Patrick
• Disciplines of a Godly Man, Kent Hughes
• Doctrine: What Christians Should Believe, Mark Driscoll and Jerry Breshears
• Thoughts for Young Men, J.C. Ryle
• Sex, Romance, and the Glory of God: What Every Christian Husband Needs to Know, C.J. Mahaney
• Sex Is Not the Problem (Lust Is): Sexual Purity in a Lust-Saturated World, Joshua Harris
• What Did You Expect?: Redeeming the Realities of Marriage, Paul Tripp
• You Can Change: God’s Transforming Power for Our Sinful Behavior and Negative Emotions, Tim Chester

While our featured material is now Man Books, we still have a number of parenting resources available from our emphasis on parenting in June and July. Also, Dave Bruskas was our speaker at last year’s Man Conference, “A Call to Fight for Biblical Manhood,” and delivered several excellent talks available here.

By way of reminder this year’s theme for, The Man Conference, is “Fighting for Godliness.” The event is free and will take place on Saturday, August 6, from 9:00 AM – 3:30 PM at Desert Springs Church.
