Endorsements

“This is such a timely and important book—but it’s not only crucial; it’s delightful. You learn and laugh and experience a narrative so conspicuously absent from our culture’s loudest voices. This wonderful story will help boys form an identity rooted in truth and dedicated to using their strengths as servants. Best of all, it also points them to that perfect man, Jesus Christ. I love this book!”

S.D. Smith Author of The Green Ember series

“My son and I are often talking about what true strength and manliness looks like—and now I have a great book to give him! I’m so thankful for Champ’s enjoyable writing and faithful Bible teaching and look forward to giving this to many young boys we know.”

Kristen Wetherell Author, Hope When It Hurts, Humble Moms, and the For the Bible Tells Me So board book series

“In a world of gender confusion, parents need helpful resources to reinforce their children’s God-given identity. This is such a resource. Rich with gospel truth, It’s Good to Be a Boy celebrates manhood for young boys and points them to the ultimate man, Jesus Christ. Every family will want to add this to their bookshelf and read it often.”

Marty Machowski Family pastor; author of The Ology, The Gospel Story Bible, Long Story Short, and other gospel-rich resources for families

(Review written for 'It's Good to Be a Boy')

I LOVE this one, and as a boy mom x3, I have been eagerly awaiting its release ever since I saw "It's Good To Be A Girl".

This book reminds boys that who God created them to be is good and purposeful. Through examples of men in the Bible and throughout history, it encourages boys to use their strength for the glory of God.
