Disciplines of a Godly Man

Have been reading Disciplines of a Godly Man by R. Kent Hughes in the past couple of weeks for a bit of food for thought and to see what challenges it offers for personal godliness.

The launchpad of the book is the Scripture in 1 Timothy that exhorts us to

"exercise thyself unto godliness". Hughes challenges men to break a "holy

sweat" in the area of godliness in their lives.

-

He systematically takes the reader through personal areas such as relationships (friendships, marriage etc;) devotion, prayer and purity.

have found it so far (am approx halfway through) to be a blessing, seeing as how I have been thinking a lot about godliness in working here at Eusebeia and also thinking a great deal about manhood in a Christian context.

-
Today, I feel we lack adequate training in godliness in many churches and adequate training in manhood in society and the home. It is somehow refreshing to find an attempt at composing a handbook that deals with these deficiencies.
-

One of the aims of this site is to combat the ignorance of godliness and highlight it's importance in Christian life & one of my hopes for dealing with young people in the future is to help them grow up properly and not according to the times and systems of the world.

I do recommend taking a look at this book if you find this site to be helpful in your Christian walk and particularly if you are a man, young or old, striving to be better focused in your relationship with God and with your friends, family and bretheren in the church.
