Synopsis

Men look up to the guys who can take a hit and keep going. We respect the fighter who picks himself up off the canvas after a knock-out punch and hangs in until the final bell. The quarterback who gets blindsided but doesn't fumble the ball earns our approval. Physical toughness like this is admirable, but it takes more than guts to become the men God made us to be, especially when the struggles we face are personal and close to the heart. The difficulty of emotional pain and spiritual setbacks is of a much different sort than any physical challenge. Many of us men are not comfortable or well-equipped to grapple with them. Tony Evans gives us the kind of advice and inspiration we need to battle on through the most difficult circumstances. Drawing from the lives of Moses, David, Joseph, Jonah, and other biblical men who faced the worst, Evans pulls men out of their brokenness and declares, "No more!" No more falling short of being the man God desires you to be for any reason. Evans shows that the struggles faced yesterday and today are the very same tools God is using to make us better men for tomorrow.

Goodreads review by Jeffrey on January 30, 2024

Very good book! Here's some great takeaways: When hard times come in life, you have a choice to make: either stay down or get back up; either make excuses, or accept where you’re at and start moving forward. Your past may influence you, but it does not have to control you. Joseph‘s family did not accep......more

Goodreads review by Innes on January 09, 2021

As a Christian man, I can’t read too many books like this. Through the lives and words of Jesus, Paul and OT heroes such as Joseph and Nehemiah, pastor Evans leads the reader through an examination of what it takes to be a wise man, a good man and a Godly man. It is compelling, well-written and sprink......more
