Gundersen's unique treatment of a rarely-addressed subject can make the difference between parents who participate in their children's deception and presumption, or parents who truly guide him to eternal life.

Paul exhorts the young Timothy, “train yourself in godliness” (1 Tim 4:7). While not every man is called into ministry like Timothy, every man is called to pursue the same godly character. Therefore, training in godliness is God’s call on every man. In the context of family, husbands and fathers must live godly lives and take spiritual leadership in the home. With that in view, Kent Hughes has written this book to exhort and encourage men to act like men. The book covers the various areas of life and offers biblical insight on the disciplines required. It is a book that is sure to challenge every man to be more intentional in his spiritual walk. Page-after-page is filled with convicting standards set forth in the Word of God—standards that none have met. That’s why Hughes reminds his readers that a disciplined life is not a matter of earning favor with God, but the outworking of grace. He writes, “legalism is self-centered; discipline is God-centered" (p. 23). The book will surely motivate Christian men to hard training by reminding them of their calling in grace. Men should read this with a humble heart, eager to see where they can repent and grow in Christ-likeness.
