Boys will be boys? Being a man before God in the 21st century

Are men facing a "crisis," and what does that mean for us all? Join us as we explore what it really means to be a man today. We'll discuss how "masculinity" isn't one thing, but many, and how it's always changing. We'll look at how traditional power structures, or "patriarchy," affect how we think and talk about God in theology and the Church, and how this can limit us. We'll also explore how the Bible portrays men, showing there's no single "correct" way to be a man. Finally, we'll discuss new ways of thinking about masculinity, moving away from power and violence, and embracing diversity. This event aims to open up conversations about gender and faith in a fresh, inclusive way.
The Rev’d Will Rose-Moore is Assistant Curate at St John the Baptist, Loughton in Chelmsford Diocese. He is studying for a PhD in Theology with Westcott House in the Cambridge Theological Federation and Anglia Ruskin University, and is also a Research Associate for the Centre for the Study of Bible and Violence, Bristol. His first book is 'Boys Will Be Boys, and Other Myths: Unravelling Biblical Masculinities'.
The event is free, but if you are able to make a donation to the continuing learning programme at St Paul’s Cathedral when you register for the event we would be very grateful.
