We men need to be connected with God. We face important decisions, all the time: Can I reconcile my work life with my faith? Am I the leader at home that my family needs me to be? Am I becoming the man that God intends me to become? In order to answer these questions, we need His truth in our lives.
But there's tension. We are busy. Our days are filled with meetings, calls, work, activities with kids. We know the power of living within God's truth; our busyness makes it hard. And so, we live too much of our lives disconnected.
Hearing a sermon on Sunday is absolutely necessary . . . but it's not enough. We men need new, purpose-built ways of bringing God into Monday-through-Saturday too!
PRAY LIKE A MAN is one of those ways.
Prayer is crucial for men. But, do we even know how to pray? Of course we do . . . but, why then do we get so caught in formality, repetition, and ritual? Why is it hard to find the right words? Why can’t we just talk to God about what’s really on our hearts . . . our fears, our failures, our joys, our successes?
In his book, Justin Camp delivers a visually remarkable compilation of fourteen straight-up, straight-forward, honest prayers for men, written to God the Father, Jesus the Son, and God the Holy Spirit.
