Fighting Shadows Jon Tyson

FIGHTING SHADOWS

Newest book from Jon Tyson and Jefferson Bethke - An entire generation of men is being told they should abdicate the responsibility and joy of living into God's calling on their lives—don't be one of them. If you're a man who's wondering what to do with your strength, your longings, and your gifts, it's time to step out of the shadows. Jesus has a vision for you.
