The Church Impotent: The Feminization of Christianity - Leon J. Podles

Descriere The Church Impotent: The Feminization of Christianity - Leon J. Podles

In all the discussion of women's roles in the Church, we've ignored a pressing question: Why don't men go to church anymore?Why are the most common traits of the modern Church doves and quilts and little old ladies? Dr. Leon Podles documents the current feminized state of the Western Church, the masculine traits that once characterized Christianity, and how they can be restored. \nWhile the masculine exodus from churches is dangerous for the Church, it is also dangerous for society as a whole. Masculinity will out. Detached from Christianity, it will reappear as its own substitute religion-with horrific consequences.\n \nAnd when divorced from masculinity, the Church emasculated fades into universalism and quietism, the effects of which run rampant through the Western Church of today. In The Church Impotent, Dr. Leon Podles examines, with meticulous scholarship, three aspects of Christianity through which its virility might be restored.\n
