Chivalrous Boyhood Collection (3 CDs)

Our sons must be the heirs of Christendom and rebuild our culture as noble men. These three audio messages explain how this can be done as we raise our boys to courageously lead.

Rebuilding a Culture of Virtuous Boyhood: Raising Boys to Be Godly Men of Courage

Twenty-first century Christian boys have much to learn from boys of the past. Issues of courtesy to women, sacrifice, and vision are critical to raising modern young men. In this message from Doug Phillips, learn how our goal must be to move beyond pretty platitudes and instead rebuild an entire culture of virtuous boyhood, such that every aspect of a young man’s life is preparation for chivalrous leadership in the name of Jesus Christ. 74 mins.

What It Means to Be Noble: Lessons from the Lives of Judah & Reuben

What does it mean to be noble? When this word is invoked, it usually conjures up an image from medieval times of a baron with lands, titles, and castles. Yet to be noble is something much more profound than being an aristocrat. Speaker Wesley Strackbein explains that a noble man or woman is someone whose adherence to a higher code compels them to take responsibility for those under their care; to act with dignity, self-sacrifice, and a sense of noblesse oblige in view of the blessings afforded them. He contrasts the examples of Judah and Reuben from Genesis, showing how Judah, though a traitor to his father’s interests early on, acted nobly late in life; while Reuben, who displayed the outward bearing of nobility, proved, in the end, to be ignoble of heart and untrustworthy as a leader. He urges Christians — those bought with a price to a high calling of service — to reclaim the lost attribute of nobility and to lead the culture as ambassadors for Christ. 75 mins.

Why Christian Manhood Must Prevail

How can we disciple our sons to be the true heirs of Christendom? In this powerful message, Doug Phillips calls the men and boys of our generation back to the lost legacy of Christian manhood, urging them to recover the old chivalric code that was once a hallmark of Western culture. Christian manhood, he maintains, must be recaptured or else our civilization will be destroyed. Yet there is hope: If we raise our sons to preserve, protect, and promote the ancient doctrine of “women and children first,” they can become “the repairer of the breach” and lead the West to greatness once again. 69 mins.
