Publisher's Synopsis
This book started as a letter to the author's oldest son on how to be a man. Over the past 20 years, the author has learned a few things on purpose and some things by accident. The author also learned one or two things, the hardest way possible and I have the scars, regrets, and a few bad tattoos to prove it.
The path to becoming a man is not a normal or traditional one. The author learned from parents, pastors, policemen, drug dealers, ex-cons, high school kids, dead men, theologians, punks, comic books, and cartoons. The author's journey has gone from drugs and alcohol, punk rock clubs and street gangs, through the loss of faith and the rejection of God to standing firm in God's Word.
This is an amazing book that connects a very personal story to a wide audience. The author is able to make you laugh while tackling the important topics facing today's men. It taught me what qualities a Godly man should strive for and the critical phases we face as we grow in our walk with the Lord. The story and the concepts touched my heart, made me think deeply in a new way, and challenged me to step deeper in my faith. A stellar read from a new author that has a great future to share with us all.
