The Redundant Male: The Marginalization of Manhood In America (Paperback) (ISBN-13: 9781977203915)

If men and women are to be the individuals God created them to be, they must accept their God-given roles. The alternative is chaos. In The Redundant Male: The Marginalization of Manhood in America, author Jeff Becker, an ordained minister in the Presbyterian Church for almost thirty years, documents the systematic deconstruction of these roles in terms of the American experience--in the family, work, education, government, and popular culture and media--along with their inevitable deleterious effects both on individuals as well as in society at large. This insight makes The Redundant Male a useful new title for anyone interested in obtaining a biblical understanding of the proper role of husband/father, particularly in terms of its being central to the health of the family unit.
