Synopsis

The story of David's "mighty men" (primarily found in 2 Samuel 23) drives this challenging and encouraging book for Christian men. The mighty men weren't drafted into David's army because of their impressive resumes. They were broken men who, given an opportunity to achieve greatness, responded like champions. In Six Battles Every Man Must Win, popular author and speaker Bill Perkins uses the story to illustrate the six battles David's men fought, and men today must win, to become powerful and effective warriors in God's kingdom.

About this title

From the Back Cover:

An unseen war is raging for the hearts of men and threatens to destroy the warriors God created men to be. Cultural bullies are whispering dangerous messages: "You are as important as your job title." "Your family doesn't really need you." "You are what you own." "Sex will medicate your pain." Temptation is but a mouse click away, economic pressures weigh heavily, and the demands of work and family are a constant double bind. In the midst of this war, it's easy to lose your spiritual focus and feel like you've failed.

In Six Battles Every Man Must Win, author Bill Perkins offers hard-earned wisdom on how you can reset your sights and prevail in the challenges of life. With refreshing honesty, Bill chronicles his own struggles with disappointment, failure, and depression and tells how the little-known biblical story of David's band of "mighty men" transformed his life.

In this motivating and practical book, you'll discover how a small band of misfits and losers became warrior heroes. Bill Perkins shows how God helped him to win the battles in his own life and strive to be a mighty man of God with his eye on the target--and tells how you can, too.
