This is a timely message for our culture, and I cannot think of a better person to deliver it. Mark is an excellent expositor of Gods Word, but in Play the Man he is showing us how to live it out. Challenging men to reject the status quo, Mark helps them refocus, rally, and do the work of revitalizing their homes, churches, and culture in general. This book will take you out of your comfort zone to reach your God-given calling. I am so proud that Mark took on this important and needed project.
Carey Casey , National Center for Fathering
You wont accomplish anything if dont play the game. You cant be MVP unless you finish the game. All this starts with a clear decision to play the man. This book is full of personal, biblical, and historical stories that encourage, challenge, and teach you how to go from boy to man. How to go from being trained to training others or from a son to a father or, as I put it, a young warrior to a hero. Read this book and learn what it takes to be the man God created you to be. Heres the good news. Youll find out you already have what it takes. Lets go!
Shaun Alexander , award-winning author of Touchdown Alexander and The Walk , 2005 NFL MVP, and host of the radio/podcast show Finish the Game
If theres one thing Ive learned from reading Mark Battersons work throughout the years, its that he has the amazing ability to make the written word feel like a face-to-face conversation. In Play the Man, Mark is speaking to me right where I live at this very moment. Even more important, hes speaking to all men faced with the awesome responsibility of raising up the next generation. His ideas, advice, and encouragement are priceless.
Ernie Johnson Jr. , TNT sportscaster and author of Unscripted
My baseball off-season consists of rest, reading, and replenishing the reserve tank. A 162-game schedule on top of a two-month spring training is taxing on any man. I look to equip my heart and mind with encouraging words. I can imagine no better companion during this time than Mark Batterson. Mark is one of my favorite writers, and he hits a grand slam with Play the Man .
