Book
The Catholic gentleman : living authentic manhood today / Sam Guzman ; foreword by Dale Ahlquist.
"What it means to be a man or a woman is questioned today like never before. While traditional gender roles have been eroding for decades, now the very categories of male and female are being discarded with reckless abandon. How does one act like a gentleman in such confusing times? The Catholic Gentleman is a solid and practical guide to virtuous manhood. It turns to the timeless wisdom of the Catholic Church to answer the important questions men are currently asking. In short, easy- to-read chapters, the author offers pithy insights on a variety of topics, including How to know you are an authentic man ; Why our bodies matter ; The value of tradition ; The purpose of courtesy ; What real holiness is and how to achieve it ; How to deal with failure in the spiritual life."--Amazon.
