The Proverbs Man: 31 Days of Walking in God's Wisdom

What does it mean to be a man? Ask 100 people, and you're likely to get 100 answers. Men are often consumed and defined by their hobbies and vocation. The world is often silent in how to mature from boyhood to manhood and be a godly man, faithful husband, and devoted father. Society usually ascribes a man's worth based on external qualities such as possessions, strength, and ability (or lack thereof) instead of inward qualities such as humility, selflessness, and servanthood. The challenging culture tends to portray and promote a skewed and lacking perspective opposed to God's design for biblical manhood. Here's a better question than the first: What does it mean to be a GODLY man? "The Proverbs of Solomon, son of David, king of Israel" (Proverbs 1:1) helps men better understand how to become a godly man of Christ-like character. While Solomon doesn't spend much time contrasting men and women, he does help boys grow into men. Guys of all ages and stages need wisdom from the Lord to mature as men who no longer act like boys.

With wisdom from a father and mother instructing a son (Proverbs 1:8), the Proverbs give actionable "how-to" practical and sensible advice and skills needed for living out biblical manhood. This book is designed as a 30-day devotional to model and hopefully establish and encourage the daily discipline of spending time with God in His Word and presence. Every man can apply the practical advice and answers from the Proverbs on the critical issues facing men today, such as conduct, decision-making, sexual purity, finances, charity, business, contentment, and relationships.
