The Virtuous Man is the inspiring true story of Kevin Toney, a gifted musician, and his quest for success. He shares how he embraced a destructive manner of behavior practiced by men toward women - what he calls the "Men's Code." Kevin's story begins at age eight, growing up in Detroit, Michigan, where he was introduced to the "Code" through his own father. Other various experiences that further shaped his attitude and relationships with women are also highlighted. His story continues through his college years and subsequent successes in the music and entertainment industry. It was through these times that the "Code" was solidified, later almost destroying his family. During his marriage he had infidelities, as he couldn't break completely from the code. Then one day after twenty-five years of marriage, his wife confronted him with an affair he was having and his life then crashed. Kevin says " I tried to find alibis but found that God was the only thing that could get me through this. A friend introduced me to God, and said, "You need God." My relationship with God saved my marriage and broke the "Men's Code." Learn the story! The "Men's Code," is a mode of behavior and thought that teaches men to believe that it's okay to disrespect women, to treat them only as physical objects, and to have relationships outside of the marriage. This book reveals the process, the spiritual and practical tools that the author used to help break the "code" and save his marriage. Kevin states, "By all human and worldly standards, my marriage should have failed and fallen apart like so many others have experienced. Only through God's words and miracles am I standing stronger than ever with my wife and family today.

This book locates Christine de Pizan's argument that women are virtuous members of the political community within the context of earlier discussions of the relative virtues of men and women. It is the first to explore how women were represented and addressed within medieval discussions of the virtues. It introduces readers to the little studied Speculum Dominarum (Mirror of Ladies), a mirror for a princess, compiled for Jeanne of Navarre, which circulated in the courtly milieu that nurtured Christine. Throwing new light on the way in which Medieval women understood the virtues, and were represented by others as virtuous subjects, it positions the ethical ideas of Anne of France, Laura Cereta, Marguerite of Navarre and the Dames de la Roche within an evolving discourse on the virtues that is marked by the transition from Medieval to Renaissance thought. Virtue Ethics for Women 1250-1500 will be of interest to those studying virtue ethics, the history of women's ideas and Medieval and Renaissance thought in general.

Five years ago nobody wanted to teach the women's Sunday School class, so the group settled on Proverbs 31 as an easy read-but soon realized they actually knew very little about it. The Power of a Virtuous Woman is the book written as a guide. It examines Proverbs 31 from beginning to end with hard questions all along the way. Questions like how did David's relationship with Bathsheba affect her relationship with their son Solomon? And exactly how did Bathsheba get Solomon to listen to her when he was already a grown man? It explores ancient, yet ongoing conversations about gender, power, submission, obedience and sacrifice. The questions at the end of each chapter beg more for analysis than answers and sometimes elicit anger. Are these conversations okay in the 21st century or are the inquiries just too dangerous for women? The class grew from nine to more than twenty women in a few short months. Amid the privacy of the church library, the comfort of coffee, tea and homemade goodies and the growing confidence of true sisterhood they explored every verse of the chapter they thought they already knew. The Power of a Virtuous Woman covers various perspectives on life, marriage and parenting presented in Proverbs 31 because the class roster is varied. Some of the sisters are in their 20s, some are in their 70s and some are in between. They are single, married, divorced and widowed, with and without children, and some are raising grandkids. Some of the sisters have beautiful homes, some live in shelters and some have been incarcerated. There are professionals with advanced degrees and others working on their GEDs, but like many women around the world they all struggle with issues of virtue, power and submission. Perspectives on that struggle form the basis of The Power of a Virtuous Woman.
