Sadly, infertility is a very common problem which currently affects one
in seven couples in the United Kingdom. If you aren't personally
affected by it, no doubt you'll know someone who is maybe a friend,
relative or even one of your own children. Men often suffer in silence
and find it incredibly hard to talk about. It's a taboo topic which can
make us feel 'less manly'. We feel like we've got to be strong for our
wives but deep down the pain is real and it hurts. For Peter Roscoe and
his wife this was truly the hardest time of their lives. Man Up to
Infertility is to help all the guys out there who are struggling in
silence. The Petes who are supporting Emmas, the Zacks who are holding
up Tamaras, guys like you and me struggling but want to overcome. Peters
own testimony is the first part of the book and his friends share their
own stories of overcoming infertility too. The Bible is also full of
stories of great men and women who, by the grace of God, managed to
triumph over their barrenness. The second part of the book studies these
stories from the husband's point of view and demonstrate how we can
learn from their strengths and weaknesses to help us better support our
wives, grow closer to our Heavenly Father and ultimately overcome. In
the third part it shows how God has used adoption for some of the most
significant men and women in the Bible and how God uses them in his
ultimate plan to adopt everyone into his eternal family.
