Hero, Becoming the man she desires

One of the biggest regrets that Donnie and I had when we became Christians was that we had sexual sins in our lives and family that pass on through the generations. We didn't want our children to live like we did or our families have. It has been a big focus in our parenting, breaking the generational sins of sexual impurity.

I was so excited to see another book on purity by Fred Stoeker, Hero Becoming the Man She Desires, and the fact that his son co-wrote the book AND managed to be the first generation to make it to his wedding having never kissed was thrilling! That is what I hope for with my kids.

I love this book and it is going to be required reading for my boys, and I am having Kaytlin's beau read it, too. (he already plans to have his first kiss on their wedding day, but still....... lol)

The main point in this book isn't focused on having the first kiss on the wedding day, it is more focused on leaving every girl better off for having known you, rather than leaving a trail of heartache. And purity and kindness are key to that. This book will teach our boys how to treat women as God would have them be treated.

Summary:
You already know it’s not easy being a single man in this culture today. But it is easy to be overwhelmed, to feel helpless and hopeless about living by God’s high standards for singles. It’s easy to cave in to the pressures of this sex-soaked world and accept defeat—blaming the media, the culture, even girlfriends who don’t know how tough it can be.

But many men have read books like Every Young Man’s Battle and Tactics and have committed themselves to stand strong and pure in the power of God, and to go on the offensive against the onslaught of negative stereotypes. Some have suffered. Some have fallen. But many have experienced victory—and you can be among them.

What makes those committed men so desirable to women? Be Her Hero is their motto. From best-selling author Fred Stoeker, along with his son Jasen, come the straightforward insight and real-life examples you’re looking for to help you take personal purity to its logical conclusion. Here’s straight truth with irrefutable evidence of what makes an ultimate hero to women who long for men of faith—men who stand by their convictions and make their world a safer and better place.

Are you ready to accept the challenge?
