Son of Man is an honest-to-Bible account of Jesus and the world he lived in. Two things make this biography unique: First, it arranges the Gospels chronologically to help the listener see how, and maybe more importantly, why things unfolded as they did. Second, it tells Jesus's story in the context of his culture. The geography, climate, politics, racism, social norms, religion, traditions, economics, morality, language, and customs of the second temple era play key roles in this narrative.

While the Litany of Saint Joseph is filled with many rich titles describing Joseph’s virtues and duties—such as most just, most chaste, patron of the dying, terror of demons, and protector of the holy church—there is one title that stands out which is quietly absent from his litany: the man closest to Christ.

The Magi of nativity scenes are romanticized as well-dressed wisemen bringing gifts to Jesus. Traditional Chrstians tell of a miraculous star that guided exotic kings from Persia, India, and Africa. Academics dismiss both accounts as no more than a pious legend. Who is right?

If you don't learn to govern yourself, you will be governed by others, and your own impulses will be the reins they use to lead you. That's Solomon's warning to young men in the Book of Proverbs.

We must rule well, and that begins with ruling ourselves.

We're made to look passive, dissociated, and defeated. If we're not pot-bellied beer drinkers or egoistic morons, no one wants to watch the broadcast. What happened to John Wayne, Matt Dillon, and G.I. Joe? Men who knew their strengths, understood their roles, believed in hard-nosed Christian values. Well, they're not dead; in fact, they're alive and well buried inside each one of us, waiting to emerge like the heroes they are. All they need is a reminder of what our God-given nature is. It's time for us to go back to the very beginning and dissect exactly who we are as men.
