With all the turmoil in the public eye of things a small percentage of men have done, being a man has turned into a bad thing. Men have been told that there is no place for masculinity, but that couldn’t be further from the truth. Men need to rise to the standard set for them by Christ, and Ken Harrison writes about what that means in Rise of the Servant Kings.

Harrison shows what the Bible says starting with where things went wrong and how men have to fully submit to God and His will. He shares experiences from his life, and from people he has met to give real life examples.

His writing style is easily understood and engaging. I found myself making time to keep reading a little more. There is a lot of information in the book, but he does a good job of making it accessible to many different ages.

Masculinity has been maligned, and people have tried to redefine what it means, but the Bible is clear on the role men play. Men are to love and care for those around them. They are to lead them to Christ and in following Christ. Men don’t need to be afraid of who they are, or hide from their calling. Rise of the Servant Kings would be a good book for men to read and learn about how to serve God in the way He called them to.

I received a complimentary copy from the publisher through NetGalley. All opinions are my own.
