"Many young men are understandably focused on the pursuit of the woman who will eventually become his wife," author Chris Green comments in his latest publication. "I just want to encourage some young man to change his focus from the mere pursuit of the woman who will eventually become his wife, to the wise preparations for becoming honorable as a husband and father."
In this, his third solo authorship project, The Honor Role, Green challenges men to restore honor to the role of husband and father.
Here's a powerful and poignant excerpt:
"In our world today, we honor and display what should be covered in modesty, and we ignore, shame and cover what should be Honored. The Role of Men should be honored and encouraged, not covered or shamed. However, it is covered and even despised due the influence of evil in the heart of mankind, which has distorted and perverted what God ordained to be an honorable role in the family, community, and all of society."
"I think this book may surprise you because it does not take men through an outline of
topical chapters and studies," Green explains. "As we moved into the empty nest time of life and then became grandparents, we also transitioned to a responsibility to leave a legacy by passing on our knowledge and experience to the next generation."
The Honor Role is a marvelous compilation of thoughts, stories and lessons that were assembled, not only for men in general, but as a wisdom-ladened overflow from raising three African American young men, together with his wife Carol.
"I always felt that the best thing I could ever give to my sons was a father who loved their mother. And that's all I have to offer the world today," Green concludes. "I'm just one example of a traditional Black father who loves his wife and family. I’m simply ONE CONCERNED FATHER for the future of our sons."
This book is a very special collection of Green's most significant messages to men; published with the intent to fortify those who are genuinely striving for excellence in spite living in an era in which terminology like Toxic Masculinity, along with negative stereotypes, spousal abuse, and horrible histories are constantly aired and rehearsed, while male bashing is popularized, applauded and rewarded.
