Being God's Man in the Face of Temptation: Real Life. Powerful Truth. For God's Men

Being God's Man

by Stephen F. Arterburn, Kenny Luck, Todd Wendorff

All men are tempted to compromise. But not all men do. Some have learned the secret of being undivided between what they believe and how they actually think and live.

They possess integrity. They’ve gained new perspectives on the trials and temptations they face, new tools to help them survive automatic human responses to challenging situations, and new actions which produce humility and flexibility in God’s strength. You can be a man of integrity too.

Confession breaks the power of temptation in men of integrity; connection with other men sustains the victory. Being God’s Man…in the Face of Temptation will help you–whether in individual or group study–confront this pervasive problem in God’s wisdom and strength. And begin to live the undivided life.

[Brent Soderstrum · Rating 4 out of 5]

I have finally read all of Arterburn's "Being God's Man..." series. This one focuses on James and the temptations men face. We need to strive for Spiritual Integrity, Mental Integrity, Sexual Integrity, Biblical Integrity, Behavioral Integrity, Verbal Integrity, Moral Integrity, and Relational Integrity. This 8 session Bible study spends a week covering each one.

I used this one for my daily devotionals but it can and should be used by men in a small group. My men's small group has used books from this series in the past. I highly recommend them.
