Rediscovering the Character of Manhood Greg S Baker

Character and integrity are essential qualities for any real man. More important than a boy's ability to take a hit on the football field or skill in sports is the ability of a young man to be truthful, honest, and reliable. That, more than anything else, should mark the character of a Christian man.



Becoming a man in an ever-changing landscape has always been challenging, and building character and integrity in a permissive world full of distractions and sin will task even the most good-natured boy. This book is full of lessons and stories that will entertain and teach.



My hope is that you will take this book, dad, and read through it with your son. Let the stories you read spark your own memories, memories you can share with your son of your own journey into manhood.



This book will cover essential qualities of character, which include:
