Publisher's summary

How to raise a godly man in a godless world

Perhaps there has never been a more challenging time to raise children than in today's culture. Parents are having to address challenges that their parents never had to with them. And while the core elements to raising children are the same, parents need wisdom for applying them to this day and age.

That's what this book is about: navigating the times and raising a generation of men on godly principles - sons who are ready, able, and motivated to represent God during their days of sojourning on this earth. Pastor and author Mike Faberez will help parents pass the faith on to their sons, in prayer that the promises of God extend to the third and fourth generations...and beyond.

Parents will be equipped to:

  • Envision their son's future every day
  • Set his spiritual trajectory
  • Build a home that grows godly men
  • Address the rebellion in their son's heart
  • Prepare him to face the world and contribute to it
  • Help their son toward a right view of play and leisure
  • Navigate the teenage years

There is an epidemic of grown men with the maturity of young boys. Be a parent who saves your child from prolonged adolescence. Scripture says, "The father of the righteous will greatly rejoice; he who fathers a wise son will be glad in him" (Prov. 23:24). Children are a gift from the Lord. Listen to Raising Men, Not Boys to steward the gift of parenting and shepherd your sons to be men of God.

Outstanding Resource

Mike has a good perspective on what is needed to raise Godly young men. He is very down-to-earth, but also very spiritually minded.

I would recommend this to any , parent, prospective parent, or grandparent.

felt more like a lecture on what I should do than

This book felt more like a lecture from on high on what the Bible says to do than a practical how to implement those guidelines. not worth it.

Clear and helpful wisdom

This is exactly what every parent needs to be prepared to face the challenges of raising young men. Pastor Mike has inspired, encouraged and better prepared me to train my boys to be godly men.

Biblical and Practical

Raising Men Not Boys was full of biblical insights to help raise godly children. While the target audience is parents who want to raise godly sons, there are many principles that can be applied to raising godly daughters too.

A preacher giving his parenting advice

There is good advice, and it is applicable to all children, not just boys. I think the author called it raising men, because he has only raised boys, but nothing really specific to raising men. OK parenting book.

A must for every Parent

Lots of practical application backed up with sound biblical principals... I would recommend to everyone and this will be on my list to re-read (or re-listen to) every year to keep some principals fresh as my boys get older.

Challenging book but worth the listen!

The Brook is extreme at times but then again a pastor wrote the book. I still get the book a 5 out of 5 stars as a must read.
