Book Review of Boyhood and Beyond: Practical Wisdom for Becoming a Man

Boyhood and Beyond: Practical Wisdom for Becoming a Man
Domestikate avatar reviewed on


Excellent book for older boys or young men. Also contains discussion questions to facilitate group or one on one reading/discussion.

"Bob Schultz, a carpenter by trade, has written a timeless book for boys. Wisdom and common sense are gleaned from short chapters covering topics such as authority, inventiveness, and honesty as well as learning to overcome things like fear, laziness, and temptation. Boyhood and Beyond motivates boys to build their lives on a foundation of strong moral principles. Most importantly, these chapters will encourage boys to become the men God wants them to be as they develop a relationship with Him. This is a "life" book designed to be read and lived out in a boy's life, thus becoming one of his building blocks to godly character and , ultimately, manhood." -from back cover
