Synopsis

STATUS QUO OR SPIRITUAL VITALITY? As Christian men, we know the feeling. We return home from a church service or a retreat excited about our walk with God and brimming with optimism about how this time what we’ve heard is going to make a real difference in the way we live. And yet, within a matter of days (or sometimes within a matter of minutes) our hopes are dashed on the rocks of “life as usual.” For many of us, it’s not motivation we lack. We want to live a joyful, Christ-centered life. We certainly aren't lacking information, either. We’ve heard and read and talked about what our lives should look like. What’s missing for many of us is a strategy for putting what we know into practice. “Our life in Christ is not a natural phenomenon,” writes Dr. Bob Beltz. “It is a supernatural phenomenon. We need to learn how to tap into the power source of a daily walk with Christ.” In Daily Disciplines for the Christian Man, Dr. Bob Beltz gives us seven clear and simple steps that will enable us to live one day at a time with Christ, led and empowered by the Holy Spirit.

Review:

Every spiritual, sensitive Christian man strives to be the man God wants him to be-a dynamic overcoming believer, a spiritual leader in his home, an example to his children, a loving companion to his mate. But as it happens so often, what we want is not attained. What we long for slips through our fingers like dry sand. Bob Beltz offers some helpful suggestions to help us grasp the elusive prize...This little book sparkles with examples of those who have overcome and have become "men of God." -- Glen H. Jones, Pulpit Helps, October 1994
