Stepping Up: A Call to Courageous Manhood by Dennis Rainey encourages men of all ages to fulfill their God-given role. They must as 1 Corinthians 16:13 says, “Act like men.”
Rainey’s challenge to men is presented in five movements:
The First Step: Boyhood
The Second Step: Adolescence
The Third Step: Manhood
The Fourth Step: Mentor
The Fifth Step: Patriarch
Each section includes strong biblical rationale and real life stories which serve to motivate men to live with Christ-centered resolve. Stepping Up is a breath of fresh air. So many books devoted to men are in the final analysis, man-centered. But real men are God-centered and their lives reflect the glory of a great and awesome God. Rainey’s timely advice is sure to encourage men to step up and make a difference in God’s kingdom.
