The bestselling author, television and radio personality, and in-demand speaker, offers insight, enlightenment, and empowerment to men and the women who love them. What does it mean to be a real man? Does it mean being the biggest, strongest guy around? The man with the most money, cars, and possessions? The man with the most power and respect? Many men think so. And many women are frustrated as they try to figure out exactly what that means for them and their relationship with those men. But Bishop David Evans is here to tell us something different. A true man is the man who dares to live up to God's design. Within every man, there's a man that God wants to release: a man of confidence, purpose, strength, destiny, consistency, sensitivity, accountability, and loyalty-who is spiritual and loving. A problem solver and a leader. Within every man is a true identity waiting to be fulfilled. When that true man appears, he'll realize that responsibility is not something to run from, but rather something to be embraced. He'll learn that sovereignty can happen only when he becomes obedient to God. He'll see that his relationship with the family he creates isn't about limitations, but about freedom. Only when he becomes that true man can he make himself ready for the woman who loves him. Women have long been misled about what a real man is. Unsure about what to look for and expect in a partner, they have unrealistic expectations and unmet needs. They demand what men can't and shouldn't give them, yet don't allow men to embody the role that God has called them to. In Dare to Be a Man, women learn to identify a man who lives up to God's design and to foster the spiritual growth of the men in their lives. With its inspiring and empowering message, as well as practical application, Dare to Be a Man is essential reading for all men and the women who love them.
