Malestrom reimagines our culture's narrow definitions of manhood, showing through the stories of men in the Bible and Jesus' gospel present a much larger picture of what it means to be male.

Malestrom builds on and expands previous books by Carolyn Custis James to explore the idea of manhood, a growing issue both in the wider culture and in the church. Until now, the entire discussion has been largely reduced to Western conceptions. Instead, James here shows how our culture's narrow definitions of manhood are upended when we consider the examples of men in the Bible and Jesus' gospel. Together, they show a whole new Kingdom way of being male and forging men and women into the Blessed Alliance.

By surveying the diverse biblical landscape with wisdom, insight, and conviction, Carolyn Custis James calls for a Christ-centered understanding of 'male,' where men and women are equal image bearers of God, truly one flesh, and thus coworkers in the mission of God on earth. James's Malestrom is a prophetic and healing voice.
