Pages : 176
Book Description
Men--the beard is officially over! So get creative with your razor, scissors, and a tiny comb to fashion yourself a fetching mo'! The moustache is back! Walk through any hipster neighborhood these days and you'll see the move away from full-flowing beards and back to the far superior, gentlemanly moustache (don't even think about a whisker-free face!). Today, the modern man uses the mo' much like a pair of raffish eyewear--to accent his face and personality. This book is your easy step-by-step guide to crafting forty classic and contemporary moustache styles. Think beyond the '70s porn-star mo' or Tom Selleck's lip slug in Magnum P.I. (although that one is included!) to cooler versions, including the Horseshoe, the Dalí, the freestyle, the Fu Manchu and the B-Boy. Add some serious style to your face this fall.

Bearded Gospel Men
Author: Jared Brock
Publisher: HarperChristian + ORM
ISBN: 0718075021
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 300
Book Description
A Devotional That Dudes Will Actually Read! Is there a connection between hairiness and holiness? Some would say a hearty “Yes!” In fact, the world is in the middle of a beard mania. Events like Movember and Decembeard are becoming global movements and manly sites are appearing all over the internet. Is this just another fad? And what does it say that so many of the most famous Christian communicators have or did have a beard? Throughout history, Christian men have gloried in male pattern magnificence. Saint Benedict of Nursia wore a superb double forker. The benevolently-bushed Euthymius wouldn’t allow clean-shaven monks to enter his Judean Desert monastery. St. Francis of Assisi had a beard, and now there’s a Pope named after him. He’s clean-shaven, but we’re praying for him. Of all the great Christian men who wore beards, none stands so highly as the headless martyr Sir Thomas More. On the day of his beheading, the tufted knight supposedly positioned his beard away from his soon-to-be-severed neck, saying: “My beard has not been guilty of treason, and it would be an injustice to punish it.” But of course, Bearded Gospel Men is about far more than beards – it’s about manliness and godliness. Through this 31-day devotional, men are inspired to rise to a higher calling. The humor and facial hair is the perfect means to have a broader conversation about living a faithful life. So, let’s study some of these famous Bearded Gospel Men!

What Did Jesus Look Like?
Author: Joan E. Taylor
Publisher: Bloomsbury Publishing
ISBN: 0567671518
Category : Religion
Languages : en
Pages : 289
Book Description
Jesus Christ is arguably the most famous man who ever lived. His image adorns countless churches, icons, and paintings. He is the subject of millions of statues, sculptures, devotional objects and works of art. Everyone can conjure an image of Jesus: usually as a handsome, white man with flowing locks and pristine linen robes. But what did Jesus really look like? Is our popular image of Jesus overly westernized and untrue to historical reality? This question continues to fascinate. Leading Christian Origins scholar Joan E. Taylor surveys the historical evidence, and the prevalent image of Jesus in art and culture, to suggest an entirely different vision of this most famous of men. He may even have had short hair.
