Summary

This generation is struggling—mostly alone. Fear and pain are everywhere. And yet most of us, especially men, forget or forgot what’s available and intended to help us survive and even thrive in these evil days: authentic Christian community. In Rescue, Justin Camp reminds guys that God put his Spirit into their hearts so they would come out of isolation to support and sacrifice for one another. This third book in the life-changing WiRE series explores:

• Why the myth persists that “real” men don’t need each other
• How vulnerability is the only path to becoming hearty, rugged, good men
• Practical wisdom for starting worthwhile spiritual communities

Scattered, men are assailable. United with brothers and God, though, they’re protected—ready for anything this world might threaten.
