About this deal

At the end of each chapter are helpful applications to the topic being studied and useful additional resources for further reading. And if there is a spark of spiritual desire in your soul, this book will surely kindle it into a blazing passion for godly discipline. Discipline is a subject about which the Scriptures say much—but contemporary authors have been peculiarly silent. The applications of the principles seemed unnecessarily wooden, so the group was able to wrestle with how to apply each discipline with wisdom.

Having just taken over the leadership of our Men's Ministry' at my Church this book has opened my eyes to what God wants to see if ALL men. Thankfully I had such a father and so the book wasn't as groundbreaking for me as it has been for some of my friends. R. Kent Hughes (DMin, Trinity Evangelical Divinity School) is senior pastor emeritus of College Church in Wheaton, Illinois, and a visiting professor of practical theology at Westminster Theological Seminary in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania.Over 250 pages devoted to the practical outworking of discipline on subjects like purity, marriage, prayer, the tongue, the mind, our work, leadership, ministry, and many, many more. This book is rich with resources for further reading and a lot of great practical tips for the disciplines. Hughes is also a founder of the Charles Simeon Trust, which conducts expository preaching conferences throughout North America and worldwide. Thee chapter on prayer was also personally convicting and edifying as that’s something I can work on more to improve. When his intent became apparent to his servants, one tried to dissuade him, saying, "Isn't this Bathsheba, the daughter of Eliam and the wife of Uriah the Hittite?

He earned his BA from Whittier College (history), an MDiv from Talbot Seminary and a DMin from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School. I recommend reading the book with a friend or a small group like I did, as having others to go along with you helps keep you motivated. By biblical manhood I want to emphasize “biblical,” and not something weird that’s all about beating one’s chest and following after some kind of cultural stereotype of what a man should be.It was the breaking of the tenth commandment (coveting his neighbor's wife) that led him to commit adultery, thus breaking the seventh commandment. Read this through my men’s Bible study and although, I would have probably not chosen this book to read by myself Im glad I read it. If there is a spark of spiritual desire in your soul, this book will surely kindle it into a blazing passion for godly discipline.
