This easy-to-use, life-changing book for fathers and sons gives readers the tools to have important conversations with boys about life, faith, and being a man. With a conversational and captivating tone, fathers and other caregivers are guided into having gospel-focused conversations with boys ages six to ten about a wide range of topics from social justice and friendships to money, anger, and more.
Dads are given an incredible opportunity to be one of the primary influences in their children's lives for the gospel. By inviting conversations in every arena of life, fathers pass down the message of Christ to the next generation. As a youth and family pastor and father to a young boy who's entered into many of these conversations, Joel Fitzpatrick knows it's important not to shy away from difficult subjects.
But he also knows dads and other caregivers need help in how to have intentional conversations with boys about God, themselves, and what difference knowing the gospel makes to their everyday life. Fitzpatrick invites fathers to share with their sons how the gospel shapes all aspects of life, including how they treat women, people from other ethnic groups, and much more. Specific, practical help is given to dads through suggested activities, God's Word, and insightful questions.
In a world where television, the internet, social media, and gaming culture have taken away from quality time spent between fathers and sons, Between Us Guys urges readers to lean in to important conversations with the grace and knowledge of Christ.
"When pastors or laypeople ask me for one book to read on biblical counseling, I point them to the excellent work in Instruments in the Redeemer's Hands. This study guide is a sound, thoroughly biblical, and practical guide for biblical counseling. If you are looking for a way to help your congregation understand how to counsel one another with the Word of God, Instruments in the Redeemer's Hands Study Guide will be an immense help to your ministry."
Deepak Reju, Associate Pastor, Capitol Hill Baptist, Washington, DC
"We adopted the Instruments in the Redeemer's Hands Study Guide as a required training curriculum for our ministry team, as it solidly reinforces our shared commitment to an entirely biblical, Christ-centered, discipleship approach in the context of the body of Christ. I'll be forever grateful for how these resources have been used in my own life, and in the lives of so many others, to grasp the lasting change that all of us so desperately desire. Keep up the good work."
Daniel Gavin, Director, Addictions Victorious
"As a pastor, I'm thankful for the Instruments in the Redeemer's Hands Study Guide. We've used it to train dozens of adults in personal ministry. Now members of our congregation regularly dispense biblical counsel to one another over the phone, at a coffee shop, in a living room. As a result, while our church has grown, my counseling schedule has actually decreased because issues and struggles are addressed before they become full-blown problems."
Ken Brown, Pastor, Community Baptist (New Boston, MI)
