“As a minister with twenty-four years of pastoral experience, I wish I’d had this book at the outset of my ministry. As a seminary professor, I wish all my students had this book at the outset of their ministries.”

“This is precisely the sort of book we need in the church today. The rising generation desperately needs to hear from wise and humble older men. I’m grateful to God for this band of brothers who have gathered together under the leadership of Dr. Thomas Ascol to provide the church with this thoughtful and accessible guide to train up the next generation of faithful men to serve God for His glory and not their own.”

Co-pastor, St. Andrews Chapel in Sanford
