Publisher Description
Self-initiation is killing our young men. Without strong mentors, boys are walking alone into a wilderness of conflicting messages about who they should be as men. It's no wonder that our sons are confused about what the world expects from them and what they should expect of themselves.
The Intentional Father is the antidote. This concise book is filled with practical steps to help men raise sons of consequence--young men who know what they believe, know who they are, and will stand up against the negative cultural trends of our day. Jon Tyson lays out a clear path for fathers and sons that includes specific activities, rites of passage, and significant "marking moments" that can be customized to fit any family.
It's not enough to hope our sons will become good men. We need them to be good at being men. This book shows how fathers, grandfathers, and other male mentors can lead the way.

Every Father Should Read
Such deep and practical wisdom throughout! Very well written
A wonderful book on intrafamilial discipleship
I thought this was a very insightful book, very imaginative, and very inspiring. I feel incredibly motivated to take charge of my son‘s upbringing in a different way, and I don’t know that I would’ve come to some of the conclusions I’ve come to without this book. If you’re a Christian father, Looking to build a Christian man out of your boy, I think this book is a great place to start.
Great book for a father to help realize his children need him
A good book that establishes the need to plan and workout steps to help your children to move from adolescence to adulthood. It also helps to restore fathers who failed to start anew
