Our churches and homes need men willing to follow the path of godliness no matter what the cost. This inspiring, popular book has been speaking to the hearts of men for more than 10 years, and its words are still relevant. Using engaging illustrations, scriptural wisdom, practical suggestions, and study questions, Kent Hughes offers a frank biblical discussion on major areas of Christian manhood: family, godliness, leadership, ministry, and more. This newly revised edition is for every man who wants to know what it means to be a Christian in today’s world.

The author illustrates the importance of discipline in spiritual matters in the first chapter:

We will never get anywhere in life without discipline, be it in the arts, business, athletics, or academics. This is doubly so in spiritual matters. In other areas we may be able to claim some innate advantage. An athlete may be born with a strong body, a musician with perfect pitch, or an artist with an eye for perspective. But none of us can claim an innate spiritual advantage. In reality, we are all equally disadvantaged. None of us naturally seeks after God, none is inherently righteous, none instinctively does good (cf. Romans 3:9).
Discipline is a subject which the Scriptures say much—but contemporary authors have been peculiarly silent. Kent Hughes fills a gaping void with this superb volume . . . If there is a spark of spiritual desire in your soul, this book will surely kindle it into a blazing passion for godly discipline.

—John MacArthur, president, The Master’s College

God calls us to be holy as he is holy. But how is that possible when we are clearly imperfect? A gifted preacher and teacher illustrates the principles of grace, the practices of faith, and the motives of love to help us understand holy living. Readers will journey through key biblical texts that eliminate performance as a means of establishing or maintaining salvation, but that also emphasize obedience as a grateful response to God’s mercy. When God’s children recognize that his love for them never wavers, then his grace will quicken their steps, strengthen their hearts and delight their souls to carry on.

With the skill of a surgeon and the joy of a child, Bryan Chapell invites us to walk in a garden of grace. Thanks to publisher and author for this fine work.

—Max Lucado, author, Just Like Jesus
