Act like a Man: Taking Manhood Back
This country needs men who will stand for what is right. Men who will not bow down to what is easy and comfortable. This book is a great wake up call for men to take their place and know who they are in Christ. I highly recommend this book for boys who want to be men and for men who want to be men in their homes and offices!
- Marvin Germo, Mr. Stock Smarts
This book clearly redefines our paradigm of the ideal man. It spreads itself across all areas of our lives and is subtly rich in biblical references and life changing facts. It’s a no-nonsense, thought-provoking and eye-opening guide to manhood. It makes you look at your life from a different perspective and gives you a meaningful spiritual insight on how to act not just like a man, but like a real man of Christ.

From boyhood to manhood, this is what this book is all about. Becoming a real man is not automatic, but it must be deliberate and strategic. I thank God for godly men who mentored and trained me to become one. If you do not have someone to mentor you, allow Dennis Sy to help you and guide you the ABC's of manhood. From being a single to dating and courtship, to marriage and even raising your children. This book is full packed with godly principles and advice on how to become a real man.

Pastor Dennis understands that if a man seriously embraces God’s design for him, that man will be more secure and so will the women and children God brings to his life. In this book, he simply and clearly writes about God’s purpose for man from a biblical perspective. He writes about man as king, warrior, mentor, friend and more. Reading through this book made my heart hopeful that there will be more and more men who will rise up to live and fulfill what God has called them to be. Read this book and gift the men you know with a copy. They will thank you for it!

Thank you, pastor Dennis for writing this book. It is a message that generations of boys need to hear. It removes excuses and challenges boys to become Men. Boys like an adventure, what better adventure can a boy embark upon that finding their manhood. It's time to man up!

If you're a man and think that you don't need to read this book, then think again. Because "pride comes before the fall,” every man needs to read Act Like a Man with humility and learn and re-learn what we need to know and do to "man up"! Because every Proverbs 31 wife needs a Proverbs 31 man, every husband needs to read Act Like a Man. Because our sons and daughters desperately need fathers who are man enough to hug their children, Dads need to read Act Like a Man.
All POGI men need to read this book to keep on being POGI! Read this and reap!"
Ardy Roberto, Best-selling author of Real Men are POGI
"One of the reasons why I am such a big fan of Dennis Sy is because of his no-nonsense, direct-to-the-point, honest and timely approach to successful living. Act Like a Man is a book which is so timely as many men have lost grasp of what true manhood is about amidst the hysteria of commercialism, pluralism, relativism and the many 'isms' of the 21st century. This is a highly recommendable book to all the men (and women) who needs an awakening on their true purpose in life."

Great read that really talks about being a man as defined by God.
It made me look back on my life being a man who grew up without a dad.
I enjoyed reading this and this book is meant to be reviewed again. It makes you look at the reality that's happening today in this world.

A must read not just for men but for women as well. It will give you a fresh perspective about biblical manhood that this world is trying to destroy that true meaning of manhood.
-Identity
The foundation. I thank God for being the true gentleman that pave way for us to be like Him.
-Role
Man, protects, provides and nurture the people God has entrusted to him. Its more than sex, muscles,...
-How we Act as Men
Love is a verb indeed. But before that verb functions, we need to know our identity, our role then act on it. Action speaks louder than words and that applies to us men. We need to encourage our wife, children and shape them for it affects how they view men in the future.
Overall This is really a must read/have book.
