There are 52 chapters which are divided into 5 sections: Foundations of Being a Believer, The Beginnings of a Growing Faith, Maturing in the Faith, Specific Topics Related to Men, and Future Expectations. At the end of the book, you will find the list of Bible verses used and index of major topics. Some of the topics included are anger, idols, pornography, priorities, purpose, sin, etc. The book can be used as a devotional, a personal Bible study, or a small group Bible study. I've used it in our family's Bible time. I find this book helpful for my 12 and 15 year old sons. The author warns readers against worldly living and encourages them to live for God, instead. I want my sons to live for God and be men after God's own heart. This is a great resource for anyone, especially teens, men of any age, or new believers. Practical and insightful!
"God's job description for you would include: get to know Him daily, seek His kingdom first, and go and make disciples--this work is produced by your faith in God...God's job description for you would include: deny yourself; sacrifice for others; and serve others when it's not fun or easy (when others don't deserve it, recognize it, or appreciate it)--this kind of love is prompted from God's unconditional love for you." (p. 57)
"A constant and continually growing relationship with God is the only way to the truth about living. And that TRUTH is a Person--Jesus Christ...He is someone who lives His life in you." (p. 74, 75)
"Do you live each day in the amazing wonderment of what God has done and will do?" (p. 146)

Thanks for sharing
I hoe the section of specific topics for men covers the need to choose a wife properly and how to be a good father! I am so sick of the divorce rate in this country and the willy-nilly "let's get married" thing that goes on!
