Tony Evan's Doc Movie ‘Kingdom Men Rising’ Addresses God’s Purpose for Masculinity

What do Heisman Trophy-winner Tim Brown, Super Bowl-winning Coach Tony Dungy, NFL Vice President Troy Vincent, Grammy Award-winners Kirk Franklin and Lecrae, and former Dallas Cowboys quarterback Jon Kitna have in common? They are all "Kingdom" men - embracing and walking out God's true design for masculinity in a culture that seems confused about the way manhood should look. In the new film KINGDOM MEN RISING, respected pastor, author and broadcaster, Dr. Tony Evans explores the biblical intentions of masculinity and encourages believing men everywhere to take up the mantle of God's original purpose.
 
Presented by Tony Evans Films, LifeWay Films and Fathom Events, KINGDOM MEN RISING will release in movie theaters for two nights only, April 29 and 30.
 
"We as men have to understand while we're waiting on God, God's waiting on us. He's waiting on us to step up and become men of faith...who not only believe in God, but believe God. Men who act like God is telling the truth and who walk by faith not just talk by faith," said Dr. Evans. "There's a difference between being a man and being a male. You can be one without the other because you're not taking responsibility under God. So it is absolutely critical that we own this. We own the responsibility of calling a culture in decline back, calling men back."
 
Through the stories of the men cited above, and others, KINGDOM MEN RISING explores God's ultimate purpose for masculinity and provides an honest portrayal of today's man that is countered by God's original design.
 
The powerful documentary will explore what it means to be a real man in a modern age, addressing many of the unique circumstances facing men today. Drawing from his own experiences and using a biblical perspective, Dr. Evans addresses the topics of significance, priorities, race and passivity, challenging men to step more actively into their purpose - no more sitting on the sidelines, no more excuses.
 
"KINGDOM MEN RISING presents a unique and powerful opportunity for churches and ministries to bring men together for a life-changing experience," said LifeWay Films' Trent Myers. "Through their Fathom Affinity Network, Fathom gives churches the option to host screenings at local movie theaters or in their own churches, offering new possibilities for men's outreach that we've never seen before."
