Publisher's summary

All parents want their daughters to marry godly young men. But which qualities, specifically, should they be looking for? What will you say when that certain young man sits down in your living room, sweaty-palmed and tongue-tied, and asks your permission to marry your daughter? What criteria should he meet before the two of them join together for life?

What He Must Be...If He Wants to Marry My Daughter outlines 10 qualities parents should look for in a son-in-law, including trustworthiness, a willingness to lead his family, an understanding of his wife's role, and various spiritual leadership qualities.

Author Voddie Baucham follows up on his popular book Family Driven Faith with this compelling apologetic of biblical manhood. By studying the principles outlined in his book, parents who want their daughter to marry a godly man - as well as those who want their sons to become godly men - will be well equipped to help their children look for and develop these God-honoring qualities.

Must read for biblical manhood!

Very convicting, covers everything you can think of, great narration, and life-changing overall! Definitely recommend!!!

Must read!

This book is one of the most important parenting & discipleship I've read. Voddie Baucham's biblical perspective challenges parents to rethink how they're shepherding their sons and daughters instead of following the cultural norms.

Biblical Manhood Clearly Taught!

This book is an exceptional work explaining biblical manhood, I was both highly encouraged, and thoroughly convicted to the high calling of manhood, to live as Christ, Dr. Baucham does an excellent job explaining biblical manhood!

I am convicted

This book is a literal conviction for my heart. Voddie may not be a perfect man, but he writes in a way that makes one not only think twice about their way of understanding the Scripture (s), he also writes in a shepherding manner. He lays out truth in a way that made me clearly understand the sin in my life and how inadequate I am. I am also glad that he makes it clear what “I must be” so that I might walk away knowing where I got it wrong.

I wish to listen to this again and not get used to the truths outlined in the book, but get a deeper understanding so that I can articulate this to other men.

Wonderful!

I hope many people will read this book and apply it. Should be required reading for teenage boys and girls... and their parents.

Highly recommended

Every Father and everyone who wishes to get married should read this book. Guys should read to learn what kind of man every woman deserves. And gals should read to learn what kind of man look for. We need more dads discipling their children in this way!

All I can say is Thank You!!

As a young 39yr old man with an 18yr old daughter I always had a picture in my mind of what it would look like to chaperone my daughter into marriage. I had no clue how ill prepared I was. This book has taken away a great amount of fear and has given me confidence to use God’s Word as the only path to proceed through this process. I thank Dr. Baucham Jr. for putting in the work to bring this understanding to men like myself who are willing to listen to and learn what is pleasing to God in reference to being a man of God and giving away our daughters in marriage.

Excellent Biblical teaching on a complicated subject

Dr. Baucham teaches in a clear, understandable way what is God’s true design for marriage. Furthermore, he unpacks what is one of the most difficult parts of marriage in describing the Biblical roles of husband and wife. Voddie helps us understand the qualities of Biblical manhood, and I now feel we have an excellent outline for not only raising our son but for helping our daughters marry well, so they may experience a blessed, joyful union!
This is one of those books I wish I had read years ago, and will refer to in the years to come for my own marriage, training our children, and Lord willing, our future grandchildren! This book will help build a lasting legacy! Highly recommend.

Eye-opening & Heart stirring

Offers a different paradigm (anti-cultural) for viewing marriage and process of finding a mate.

Takes a fresh and biblical view on the responsibility of fathers in the preparation and selection of godly husbands for their daughters, as well as the raising of godly sons for marriage.

So glad I made time for this

Should be required for all men and women to listen to this. ESPECIALLY the men!
