What He Must Be

...If He Wants to Marry My Daughter

By: Voddie Baucham Jr.

Narrated by: Calvin Robinson

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.

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!

Challenge and encouragement for men

Loved the book, well written and well read… much to dwell upon and apply.

May the Lord work in the lives of men young and old.

Finished it in 4 days

Great book! Convicting and encouraging at the same time. Helpful no matter what age your kids are.. Reader was a bit monotone at times.

Every Father should listen to this

Excellent!! I pray many families will take the time to listen to the wisdom found in the pages of this book.

A Must for Dads!!!

This book is helping me navigate raising my oldest, a teen girl. Even for raising my boys, this is giving me a great basic framework to making them the best man for their future wives.
