Description

In an age of confusion, what does it mean to be a man?

For generations, the path from boyhood to manhood was a clearly marked trail, a journey guided by fathers, mentors, and elders. Today, that path is a dense, unmarked fog. In the absence of clear guidance, a generation of young men is left to piece together a toxic and contradictory identity from the broken fragments offered by social media, video games, and a culture that has lost its way. The result is a quiet crisis of confusion, insecurity, and a desperate hunger for authentic purpose.

The question echoes in the heart of every young man: Do I have what it takes?

In The Making of a Man, Apostle Samuel Kings offers a powerful and timely answer. This is not another book of abstract theories; it is a practical field guide to reclaiming the lost art of biblical manhood.

The journey begins on a dusty road in rural Kenya, where a profound encounter with village elders reveals a timeless, universal process for forging a boy’s character. By bridging the ancient, practical wisdom of these rites of passage with the eternal truth of the Gospel, Apostle Kings builds a transformative roadmap for the modern Christian boy.

This book is built on seven foundational pillars, each one a crucial step on the path to a purpose-driven life:

• RESPONSIBILITY: Move from being a passive consumer to an active contributor in your world.
• RESPECT: Learn to honour the wisdom of your elders and unlock the secrets of generations.
• INTEGRITY: Forge an unshakeable character that is the same in public and in private.
• COURAGE: Master your fear and learn to act with conviction, even when it costs you.
• BROTHERHOOD: Reject the myth of the “lone wolf” and build a shield wall of loyal brothers.
• IDENTITY: Stop building your worth on your performance and receive your unshakeable identity as a beloved son of God.
• MENTORSHIP: Discover the power of learning from a guide and, one day, becoming one.

Complete with challenging, real-world applications at the end of each chapter and a comprehensive discussion guide for small groups, The Making of a Man is more than a book to be read. It is an adventure to be lived. It is a call to action for the young man who is tired of the confusion and ready to answer the call to become the man God created him to be.

The world is desperate for real men. Your family needs that man. Your community needs that man. The journey is not easy, but it is the most worthy one you will ever undertake. It is time to begin.
