The Five Marks of a Man

Finding Your Path to Courageous Manhood

By: Brian Tome

Narrated by: Brian Tome

Length: 5 hrs and 2 mins

Publisher's summary

A boy doesn't automatically become a man at age 18. What differentiates a man from a boy is the way he lives. A man has a vision for his life, while a boy lives day to day. A man is a team player, while a boy wants to be MVP. A man works, while a boy plays. A man has the courage to take a minority position, while a boy wants the reassurance of the crowd. A man is a protector, while a boy is a predator.

These are the five marks of a man. It's not enough to just know them. A real man aggressively pursues them on a daily basis.

Drawing from his own experience and the lives of others, Pastor Brian Tome calls on men to examine themselves and take steps in the direction of a fully realized manhood that honors God, respects women, elevates others, and works purposefully for an end greater than their own satisfaction or pleasure. It's time for men to step into their honorable place in the world and lean into a new reality - one defined by strength, purpose, and honor.

Great for Men’s Small Group Series

Great practical advice on how a Man of God should live. Thanks for keeping it entertaining!

Oh Man Great Book

I like the whole thing. Their are so many great examples of a man versus an adult boy. He is humorous. Which I like a lot in these books.  I need to listen to it again..

Great book!

It’s a must read. The transition from being a boy into a man is profound.

Could listen to this in one sitting

Of the spiritual books I have read, I absolutely loved this book. I was encouraged, challenged and inspired. I need to listen to this again because I may have missed something! Awesome book! Great read!

Im a boy...now with the tools to be a Godly MAN

Brian Tome is a wonderful pastor, but an even better man. I can identify with several aspects of his life. I love motorcycles, camping, and jerky. I have several vices, one of which used to be marijuana (can’t partake now because Im a medical professional). Ive had a massive stroke, from which Gods grace pulled me through and got me through graduate school. I too want to be a better husband and father. I have been to four Man Camps, once at a trip captain, and every time I have learned something new about myself that I might have never discovered. I carry my Man Camp challenge coin everywhere I go. This book should be read or listened to by every boy/ man in the world. You will learn a great deal about manhood and boyhood, but you havent truly learned anything until you apply these Five Marks to your life. God Bless.
