MAN UP! Becoming a Godly Man in an Ungodly World

MAN UP! Becoming a Godly Man in an Ungodly world was written by pastor, author and speaker Jody Burkeen. His god given vision to challenge men to stop being spiritual sissies, MAN UP and except Gods challenge to be "the light of the world" inspired him to put this vision in a book to share with others.

Jody's self-described "Damascus Road Transformation" led him on a journey to search the scripture to find what he had been missing his whole life, Jesus Christ. In this journey, the Word if God took over in a way he never expected. Searching for men in the church to help in him in his walk, he found very little help and in the process found men that needed the same kind of help.

"Church had become a religion, not a relationship" says Jody in his book. The relationship he is talking about is the relationship with Jesus Christ and it seemed as if men in the church had become complacent and not living up to the challenge to live a separated life.

MAN UP! Family Devotion- A 30 Day Walk with Jesus

After many nights of frustrating family devotions, Jody began to try and write his own devotion for his family. He was looking to write something that was engaging, thought provoking and fun for his children. But nothing ever came to mind and he just couldn't put on paper what his heart felt his family needed. He began to search the internet for something that might help him and he discovered a daily devotional for families at the ministry of Heaven's Family

He began doing these with his family and realized there was no reason to reinvent the wheel. MAN UP! Gods Way contacted David Servant; founder of Heaven’s Family Ministries and asked if we could use his family devotions. He was gracious enough to allow us to create a family devotions booklet for men to take into their homes. We are thankful for his ministry and we know you will be to.

MAN UP! Prayer Journal

Men need to begin every day in devotion to Gods word and prayer. Man Up! has created a prayer journal to help you put down on paper, the prayers that you pray to God. This useful tool will help you build faith. The ability to see your past prayers is both encouraging and faith building.

How many times have you prayed only to never see you’re prayer answered? It’s not because God didn’t answer it, it’s because you forgot you even prayed it. By starting a journal, you are able to go back in time and see your heart, thoughts and prayer life and remember the moment God said “Yes, No or Wait”.

Begin your journal today.
