An adaption of the book 'Disciplines of a Godly Man' written for young men.
Using the same no-nonsense approach that made R. Kent Hughes' Disciplines of a Godly Man a positive influence on thousands of adults, this adaptation by Kent, his son Carey, and veteran youth leader Jonathan Carswell outlines the disciplines necessary to help a young man align every facet of his life with the fundamental truths of the Bible.
It not only teaches how to live a life of Christian discipline, but also instills the desire to do so into a young heart longing to live a life of integrity, meaning, and fulfillment.
This book brings the authority of a trusted name with a new flavour that will engage a younger audience.

This is a really uncomfortable book. I can honestly say that I read something troubling on every page. I am therefore so grateful to God for this great aid to the overriding aim of all of our lives: Christlikeness - read it and repent.'
- Rico Tice, Associate Minister, All Souls Church, London, United Kingdom
