Synopsis

The story of David's “mighty men” (primarily found in 2 Samuel 23) drives this challenging and encouraging book for Christian men. The mighty men weren't drafted into David's army because of their impressive resumes. They were broken men who, given an opportunity to achieve greatness, responded like champions. The author uses the story to illustrate the six battles David's men fought and men today must win to become powerful and effective warriors in God's kingdom.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

An unseen war is raging for the hearts of men and threatens to destroy the warriors God created men to be. Cultural bullies are whispering dangerous messages: “You are as important as your job title.” “Your family doesn’t really need you.” “You are what you own.” “Sex will medicate your pain.” Temptation is but a mouse click away, economic pressures weigh heavily, and the demands of work and family are a constant double bind. In the midst of this war, it’s easy to lose your spiritual focus and feel like you’ve failed.

In Six Battles Every Man Must Win, author Bill Perkins offers hard-earned wisdom on how you can reset your sights and prevail in the challenges of life. With refreshing honesty, Bill chronicles his own struggles with disappointment, failure, and depression and tells how the little-known biblical story of David’s band of “mighty men” transformed his life.

In this motivating and practical book, you’ll discover how a small band of misfits and losers became warrior heroes. Bill Perkins shows how God helped him to win the battles in his own life and strive to be a mighty man of God with his eye on the target―and tells how you can, too.

From the Inside Flap:

Every day, you're faced with bullies. They taunt you and tempt you. "You're a loser. You don't have enough money, sex, or power. You're missing out. You're a slave to your boss, your wife, and your kids. you deserve a little fun, a little escape, a little pleasure."

In Six Battles Every Man Must Win, author Bill Perkins tackles these bullies head-on and speaks clearly and openly about the challenges all men face today. His battle cry will strengthen and inspire you to get ready, join your freinds, and tackle your unseen-but deadly-enemies without fear.

With discussion questions and specific suggestions for successful engagement in the war, you'll be energized and emboldened by the story of David's mighty men who overcame tremendous odds to win their war.
