Discover God’s remedy for fear. Fear has become a way of life. We fear for our finances, for an increasingly immoral culture, and for a nation that continues to shift away from godly principles. So it’s no wonder that in a world so uncertain, fear is the only constant. But there is a truth that offers profound courage to every believer who finds it: Even when things look out of control, they’re actually under control. God’s control. The life of the prophet Daniel holds a powerful profile in courage.

Jesus challenges God’s man to throw all those words out the window. Because, when it comes to your faith, all the energy spent eliminating risk from your life actually becomes a barrier to progress in your spiritual journey. Jesus said, "If you try to keep your life for yourself you will lose it. But if you give up your life for my sake…you will find true life" (Mark 8:35).

Then this book is for you!

The Psalms are like a marked trail through life, showing that others have walked ahead and faced many of the challenges, temptations, heartaches, and perplexities that men will encounter on their journeys.

Inside you'll explore the lives of men who made an impact in their world, including Joshua, who led the Israelites into the Promised Land, and Caleb, who trusted God and not himself for victory in battle.

, within you there's a man God wants to release: a man of confidence, purpose, strength, destiny, consistency, sensitivity, accountability, and loyalty - who is spiritual and loving. A problem solver and a leader. Within you is a true identity waiting to be fulfilled. When that true man appears, you'll realize that responsibility is not something to run from, but rather something to be embraced.

Every Man, God's Man is tailor-made for any man who may feel incomplete in his commitment to God. It's for the man who wants to become even more authentic, more courageous, more intimate with God in every area of his life. It's for every man who desires to walk in true spiritual integrity every moment of every day. Like other books in the best-selling Every Man series, Every Man, God's Man boldly gets into your head, gives you hope, and equips you to persevere in your individual pursuit of God.
