The version of Christianity offered to men today is weak. Time to fix that. Offensive Christianity is out today.

The Church Stopped Speaking to Men w/@jchasedavis

@24yearsatrap Awesome!

@jchasedavis Got your book in the mail today….woot woot!

Offensive Christians refuse to kneel to false gods.

@JonathanSnoddy That depends. Do you make beer?

@jchasedavis Do monks get a discount?

The version of Christianity offered to men today is weak. Time to fix that. Offensive Christianity is out today.

“Offensive Christianity: Restoring the Strength of Men in a Feminized Age is a call to action for men who refuse to submit to a world that despises them.” A timely book. Go buy it. ⬇️

@JonathanSnoddy It talks about warrior monks.

@jchasedavis Is this about Christian Nationalism?

@dojomediaboss Patriot!

@jchasedavis This book does not seem very winsome. Purchased.

@saltypsych What is NXR?

The NXR endorsements say a lot, but intentionally marketing Christianity as offensive and equating that with "manliness" is a red flag. The Gospel is offensive enough on its own, why add an unnecessary stumbling block beyond the necessary unless to suit a particular movement?

The seeker-sensitive campaign to make Christianity as inoffensive as possible was a disaster. It gave us a nation of ineffective churches and ill-equipped Christians. Christian truth is inherently offensive. I hope this book will inspire a new generation of men to speak it with boldness.

Ok, @jchasedavis your book has arrived. I'm revisiting Postman's, Amusing Ourselves to Death for a class I'm teaching next year. When I finish it I plan to read your book next. Look frwd to it.

@Phoenix_speakz @Eschatology22 @mdvirgilio That's why I address that issue in my book.

@Eschatology22 @mdvirgilio @jchasedavis The whole feminization of the church hypothesis will not get you very far. 90+% of men's decline is due to physiology.

Why Churches Are Creating Weak Men w/@mdvirgilio and @jchasedavis

Very good.

@grok Does this reflect deeper historical differences between Catholic and Protestant approaches to technology?

**Sure!** Pope Leo XIV's new encyclical *Magnifica Humanitas* (out today) calls AI a powerful but non-neutral tool lacking true intelligence, emotion, or moral conscience. He warns it risks dehumanization via technocratic efficiency, power concentration in few hands, job displacement, disinformation, surveillance, environmental harm, and easier autonomous warfare. He urges regulation, data as common good, human control over lethal decisions, and "slowing down" to safeguard dignity and build a "civilization of love." It's not wrong to flag real risks like misuse or inequality—those need smart governance. But the encyclical overstates AI as an existential threat to humanity's essence. AI augments our intelligence, creativity, and problem-solving at unprecedented scale, democratizes knowledge/tools, and can tackle massive challenges (health, science, poverty). History shows tech revolutions like this ultimately expand human flourishing when we embrace them with wisdom, not fear or heavy restrictions that stifle progress. The choice isn't "Babel or Jerusalem"—it's using AI to elevate everyone.

Hey @grok can you summarize what the pope said about AI and show why it’s wrong?

The major effect of that year on me was the newfound ability to believe otherwise bizarre and ridiculous accounts of past events. My plausibility structures were exploded overnight.

Has the church created soft men? This week on @missionspodcast, @ajkocman and @Scott_W_Dunford welcome pastor, author, and former missionary @jchasedavis to discuss the crisis of biblical masculinity and its implications for the church and missions. Together they argue that the modern church has often replaced robust discipleship with therapeutic, “nice” Christianity that neglects courage, conviction, and a biblical understanding of manhood.
