MUST READ FOR MEN! - This book is sorely needed in our churches and by men outside of the church. Like many times in history that have led to hard times, we have a society of young and middle aged men that aren't aware of what their purpose is. We have a church that is completely emasculated and feminized. This book is very easy to read and Jerry Adams writes in a way I could really connect with and think any man can. Its not just your average go hard motivation book, Jerry has been there and done that and gives his detailed path on becoming better in the hopes you find it useful. His foreword about his father was incredibly honoring and its easy to see where Jerrys passion comes from and the impact a father or man can have on a young mans life. I found this book very useful and believe many men could too. They just have to want to choose the difficult path, the choice that confronts the things in their lives holding them back. Whether its booze, porn, lack of exercise, lack of mission or accepting responsibility for your current situation.

THE BOOK THAT ALL MEN NEED TO READ - The world needs solid Christian men who will impact the world and leave a positive legacy. 1 Corinthians 16:13 tells us to be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, and be strong. Yet, where are all the Christian men? Somehow the virtue of being a strong Christian man has been lost in the church. In this book, Jerry calls for a change. He uses the story of his father's powerful legacy to help men recapture their leadership roles at home, church, work, and communities. This masterfully-written book needs to be read by every husband, father, grandfather, and uncle. The Bible tells us that men have a unique and special role in their families. Jerry helps us understand this role with impactful stories of his remarkable life. This book is needed now more than ever.

Many of us see what is going on in today's society, but Jerry lays it out in a way that makes perfect sense. Then when it is clearly recognizable, the book explains what to do about it. How to get yourself out of a rut of mediocrity and how to lead your family to a higher plain. Reading this book felt like a gift in that not only was I receiving the wisdom that Jerry has accumulated through a lifetime but also of generations prior. I took many lessons from the book but the one I am focusing on the most is the practical guidance of do the hard things first.

Masterfully written and authentic, it is well worth the time to read it.

A CALL TO ACTION - Jerry Adams poured his heart and soul into this book. It is a call to action for men to be strong leaders in their families, their church and their community. He shares the strong men who were examples in his life and the journey that he undertook to work on his mind, body and spirit to become the man that God called him to be. All men need to read this book and apply the practical action steps Jerry provides in each chapter. This is not a book to be read and put on the shelf to collect dust.

HIGHLY RECOMMEND TO ALL MEN, CHRISTIAN OR NOT - Highly recommend to all men, Christian or not. I'm not religious and to me it is irrelevant personally when we are discussing men becoming better men, making better families, and reducing what I see as regression in society. When an authentic message like this reaches men I hope it elicits change for their own future, that men fell like being men, and grab ahold.

MAKES AN IMPACT - Read this book today. Masculinity in most modern churches is on life supports. The author really hammers home the main aspects of body mind and spirit it takes to reclaim what’s inside. I highly recommend this book to all men, Christian or not. Oh and if you are reading this and find you get offended, keep reading. It’s really for you, especially.

PASSIONATE AUTHOR MOTIVATES TO BECOME STRONGER - If I can become the man that Jerry's father was, I will live a complete and meaningful life. Jerry's writing is inspiring, not only in his storytelling about his father but also in how the modern man can improve and become a Man of Grit. Very glad I picked up this book.

A BOOK EVERY MAN SHOULD READ - Everyone talks about what's needed to fix society. "They" should do this. "They" should do that. But this book reclaims the responsibility to enact real change for ourselves. Societal problems are just a symptom of the true cause. This book goes deep into the underlying root of everything people fail to realize. A society is nothing more than the culmination of its people and the way those people carry themselves, lead their homes, and raise their children. Everything stems from the home. The home influences the street. The street influences the neighborhood. The neighborhood influences the town, and so on. The book does approach the role of a father from a biblical lens, but no matter your faith, the timeless wisdom revealed within the pages had me feeling like I was having the conversation with my own father that I never had but wish I did. 100% would recommend this book to any father of any age.
