Stand Firm and Act Like Men

Becoming the Man You Were Created to Be Instead of Who the World Says You Are

De: Joby Martin, Charles Martin - contributor

Narrado por: Joby Martin

From a bestselling author and pastor, a straight-talk, no-nonsense guide to becoming the man God calls you to be.

We’ve all seen the headlines. Masculinity is in crisis. Men are lost. What’s the matter with men? We are confused about what masculinity is and what roles men play in our culture.

Manhood, says Joby Martin, is harder than ever because we have forgotten what true masculinity looks like. Real, Biblical manhood is not about driving big trucks, having the biggest guns, or hunting the biggest buck. (Though he’s a big fan of all of those, truth be told.) True men of God surrender themselves before the cross, serve and lead their families, put on the full armor of God, and stand guard against the lies that threaten to tear our churches and our culture apart.

In this book, Pastor Joby walks through what the Bible means when it says, ‘be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong, and let all that you do be done in love’ (1 Corinthians 16:13). He guides listeners through what scripture says about who men are, how they should act, and what it means to be a man in today’s culture, and he asks tough questions about how God calls men to respond.

Stand Firm and Act Like Men is a call for men to rediscover Biblical manhood in their churches and cities, and to love, serve, and support their families and one another.

Joby Martin is an amazing man, who, like a lot of us, has things that still need work! Jobs holds nothing back in this book, sometimes smacking you in the virtual face with the hard truth that you may not want to hear... but this book WILL give you tools to Stand Firm & Act Like A Man!!

Life Changing Book

Joby’s words are so uplifting and filled with love. This book is exactly what every man in the world needs to hear. Thank you Joby!

A Must Read for Men of All Ages

This book is a must read for men young and old. Joby presents the tools to hold yourself to a higher standard of manhood. I honestly believe that this book should be assigned reading for young men as they try to find their way in this world. Encourage yourself to become the man that your family and this world needs.

The book was fully based on the Word of God!

I thoroughly enjoyed the book. I think it was full of God’s word and was true to the word. Well done!

Outstanding! An absolute must!

Just shut up and jump and buy and listen to this audiobook! A must for young and old.

Best book ever!

Wish I had this resource before I got married and certainly before I let a divorce happen. If men and women would read this book together before marriage or when trouble starts brewing in the marriage, which it will, the divorce rate would go down to almost zero.

If you want a book that will challenge you to rise above the ordinary and embrace your true calling, this is the one! I will definitely be gifting this to friends and family. Powerful, authentic, and uplifting from start to finish!

Biblical Manhood

This book is so needed for the next generation of men to learn what biblical manhood looks like. We need leaders in the home and in the church that are bold in their faith and lead through Jesus. Joby never fails to deliver his message and nails it again with this one.

Loved this for men and women! Biblical instruction for men and how the women who love them can support and encourage them!
