We take on the label “toxic masculinity” and set a clearer standard: tethered masculinity, where a man’s identity and actions submit to the authority of Scripture. We walk through John 2 to show how righteous, restrained aggression serves God’s purposes rather than ego.

• definition of tethered masculinity as submission to Scripture
• critique of the cultural claim that aggression is toxic
• contrast between untethered and tethered strength
• Jesus in John 2 as a model of righteous aggression
• principles of premeditation, jurisdiction and restraint
• questions for self-examination on motive and submission
• encouragement to anchor strength in God’s word
