3. Not only has this been the most popular series to start a Men Mapping outreach, but it is the foundational truths we believe men should embrace before moving on to other topics.
The subject of aggressive spiritual warfare against the world, the flesh, and the devil is becoming increasingly important. We live in a degrading society that makes fleshly things more accessible than ever before. Many, if not most, men are giving themselves to rampant abandonment and indulgence in fleshly sins. The enemy is pushing for conformity to his image through the power of media, unhealthy relationships and an overwhelming influx of opportunities to please ourselves. Satan and his demonic kingdom relentlessly press their battle against believers and all of God’s provisions of freedom.
The primary emphasis of this study and conference teachings by teacher Steve Phinney, is on practical spiritual instruction rather than theoretical exhortation. Christian men need to know how to fight a good fight. Men in our culture today are untrained in the most important battle of life – the battle for the soul. We will focus on the use of the objective, absolute truth of the Word of God, your sword, and not subjective or emotional experience. (6 CD Audio Set can be purchased separately)

4. Once you have taken your men through the Men & Warfare series, we then suggest having your goup go through The Principled Patriarch.
This is a 30-Day Study Guide designed to lead men back to the Biblical traditions of manhood. Our women, children, communities and nation need a few good men – husbands, fathers and leaders who are willing to lead according to the divine Word of Truth.
We are in the middle of a cultural battle that wages war against the male and female genders – boys being emasculated and our girls being made masculine. Whatever happened to the patriarchs of our day? Why are the women asserting more male dominance than our males? Why do men default to women in leading their families, homes and communities? These are just some of the questions that get answered in The Principled Patriarch.
Being a gentleman is the most perfect way of honoring God. When a man is respecting the guidelines of society, church and God, he is revealing the order of God. A man, who is interested in honoring God, is recognizing the ordained roles God has assigned to His earthly structure. This workbook assists men in caring for all women in the same way they are commanded to care for their wives. Women should respect all men in the same way they are mandated to respect their husbands. This certainly does not mean that men or women should act out their marital roles with individuals outside their home. It does mean they should show the same kind of honor and respect to all. Although, it should be noted that women should maintain God’s “chain of command” even within society. In like manner, a man should treat all women with the same dignity they trend to show their wives. The study shows men how to be cautious in allowing their willingness to be a gentleman breed a familiarity of passion or attachment (intimacy) that belongs to their wives, if not married, to Christ Himself.
The Principled Patriarch is not for “interested onlookers”! It is for the serious at heart – men who seek to find God’s solutions to man’s historical problems. This study is designed for small groups or individual private studies. The Principled Patriarch is guaranteed to challenge and refresh the soul of all men of intent. This workbook contains, what Steve Phinney

5. Since the topic of "sex" is such a "temptation," Dr. Phinney strongly suggest taking your men through this series.
The primary emphasis of this study is on practical spiritual instruction in training men how to stand firm in the mist of Sexual Temptations of Man. Christian men need to know how to fight “the good fight.” Most men in our culture today are untrained in the most important battle of life – the battle for morality. We will focus on the use of the objective and absolute truth of the Word of God, your Sword, and not subjective or emotional experience.
As customary, Steve Phinney has designed this study to be a private individual study or for small groups. The material is simple and purposefully written for men who find it difficult to invest a great deal of time in a study. The author recommends purchasing the audio CD along with the workbook. The audio message will assist men in capturing the intent and importance of the topic.
“I was hesitant in taking myself through a study on a sexually related topic, but this study is a must for all Christian male leaders who desire to embrace the passions and purity of Christ Himself—don't leave home without it.” —Phoenix Pastor
