Sometimes the devil doesn't tempt us with evil; sometimes he allures us with good, distracts us with obligations, confuses us with compromise, or hinders us with business to keep us from that which is best- service to our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! Remember, the devil always offers his best, before Christ will offer His will for your life.

Raising A Modern-Day Knight (book review)

How do we raise our sons to be manly men who stand up for truth and right? This was the question that Robert Lewis found himself asking. He looked back to the most noble, manly men he could think of  and found a wonderful answer to his query- knights!
Knights were noble. Their word was something they kept at all cost. Their valour was the stuff of legends. And a maiden could always count on a helping hand and an honorable action.
Is it possible to raise boys in this day and age to become men who knew what was right and wrong? Would he be able to instill in them a code of ethics that was missing in this day and age of men? When someone asked them what a man was, could they answer with certainty knowing that they were one?
Robert Lewis points out a knightly plan for boys of this day and age to grasp the concept of what it means to be a man. He lays out points for how to teach your son to achieve manhood and know he's attained it. And he gives you the code which all young men who want to be noble and true should follow.
This book is wonderful for those who have questions on how to raise those rough and tumble, video game playing, dirt rolling boys to become men. I believe this book would be a benefit to any father out there.
NOTE: This book doesn't use the KJV, so I suggest that you look up the verses for yourself.
