Description

As a leader in teaching, training, and transforming boys in Detroit, Jason Wilson shares his own story of discovering what it means to “be a man” in this life-changing memoir.
 
His grandfather’s lynching in the deep South, the murders of his two older brothers, and his verbally harsh and absent father all worked together to form Jason Wilson’s childhood. But it was his decision to acknowledge his emotions and yield to God’s call on his life that made Wilson the man and leader he is today. 
 
As the founder of one of the country’s most esteemed youth organizations, Wilson has decades of experience in strengthening the physical, mental, and emotional spirit of boys and men. In Cry Like a Man, Wilson explains the dangers men face in our culture’s definition of “masculinity” and gives readers hope that healing is possible.
 
As Wilson writes, “My passion is to help boys and men find strength to become courageously transparent about their own brokenness as I shed light on the symptoms and causes of childhood trauma and ‘father wounds.’ I long to see men free themselves from emotional incarceration—to see their minds renewed, souls weaned, and relationships restored.”

  • Fathers Are So Important

    In a world where men are being emasculated or told it’s okay to wear a dress, it’s so refreshing to see a real man speak so candidly about what a real man is. I really enjoyed the entire book. If I had to choose a favorite part of Mr. Wilson’s story is where he and his wife Nicole put in that extra effort and submission to keep there marriage and family intact with the help and guidance of the Holy Spirit and those who Almighty God would place in their lives on that journey of brokenness and submission. It was my son who is currently incarcerated who told me about this book and it has had a profound impact on him. I pray that men, women, young men, young women, boys and girls, mothers and fathers, single and married everywhere on every continent could read this book. This book should be read in our schools and churches.

    As a physical man, I’ve remained spiritually and emotionally immature and childish. No mentor, no father or mother who nurtured. This book has made me cry several times. Something of which I haven’t done in so long. Always considered “weak”. Thank you Jason, for this encouragement and sharing your story it has been such a tremendous help in healing.
    Im ready to read the follow up to this one. Keep strong, and keep the faith.
  • I can’t stop crying…….

    I saw Jason on Joe Rogan. I have a 16 y/o son that is a great young man. I often wonder if he is stronger than myself in a lot of life areas. Thank you for this book. I loved every page. I have not read a complete book in 20 years. Thank you.
