"The receding tide of engaged fatherhood has left a generation of boys struggling for purpose and vulnerable to the hollow promises of secular influencers. In Men of Virtue, Zachary Wagner provides a theological bedrock for rehabilitating male identity, centering it on the fruit of the Spirit rather than narrow cultural scripts. This book is an essential resource for any man ready to trade performance for genuine virtue and join the hard work of making all things new."

"I have spent the past year reading many books on a biblical vision of masculinity. Some were good and some were terrible, but the book you are holding in your hands was the best by far. Many books claimed to be Christian and biblical, but they were light on the Bible and heavy on hot takes and folk wisdom. Sadly, very few seemed to take exegesis or theology seriously. This book is a wonderful exception. Highly recommended."

"So thankful for this book. Wagner says what few venture to say: There is no healthy 'masculinity' that isn't rooted in the Fruit of the Spirit. This is a thoughtful, full-bodied view of what it means to be a man, and our culture needs it desperately."
