Lead Me

Finding Courage to Fight for Your Marriage, Children, and Faith

De: Matt Hammitt, Bart Millard - Foreword

Narrado por: Matt Hammitt

"Father, lead me, 'cause I can't do this alone." - "Lead Me" by Sanctus Real

Matt Hammitt had performed his hit song, "Lead Me", almost a thousand times. And every time he sang, the lyrics echoed the voices of his own family. His marriage was strained. His kids were growing up without him. Matt's good intentions could no longer sustain his family; he needed to be a man of action. Yet even as he told his Sanctus Real bandmates that he was leaving the band to invest in his family, he wondered: Was it really possible to be present at home and still provide financially too?

In Lead Me, Matt identifies the tension many men experience when trying to balance work and home life. With bracing honesty, vulnerable storytelling, and practical application, Matt challenges you to be faithful both to God's vocational call and to His call to lead your family well.

Discover the extraordinary joy of actively and intentionally pursuing your wife and children. Matt reminds us that it's messy. It's difficult. And it's the most rewarding thing you can do, beyond following Christ.

Encouraging and inspirational

Hammitt’s story is very inspiring to married couples. It was nice to hear the stories behind the songs.

Raw reality

I so appreciated Matt’s honesty and self reflection. His trust and seeking God throughout his life is evident. Not perfect but true. Its it what I needed at this time in my life. Empty nester at a crossroads of daily life choices…married and wanting to be a better wife, mom of adult children and true to my inner dreamer. This book has encouraged me. Given me nuggets of revelation in the verses Matt shares throughout. Verses I know, but are always feeding me in different ways. I highly recommend this book. Thank you Matt and Sarah for being real.

For every Husband & Father! 😢

I’m still crying from the last chapter as I write this review. Like a chapter out of my life’s journey —and failures- so relatable. A real and honest retelling of a Mans journey through the trials of daily life. Arriving at poignant conclusion of how to LEAD your family as Christ intended. Thank you Matthew for being so vulnerable & transparent to give us men a story to follow and example to live by. Break my heart for what breaks yours Lord and mold and change me into your likeliness. Amen!

Incredible!

This was the best thing in 2020! It is very well written and executed! I recommend every Christian married couple listen to this. The raw emotion is very powerful!
