Be an Example,
Be a Man...

R.C. Myles challenges the young men of our generation to rise to the opportunity of becoming the greatest hero in their child's life. A father and mentor, he uses real life to illustrate the importance a man plays in the role of the children of today. This book is important to any man who desires to have his child say, "I want to be just like him when I grow up!"
The positive influence that you provide to a child may be the impetus that leads them to greatness or keep them from heading in the wrong direction. Some of the stories in this book demonstrate this sort of powerful impact. I recently read a quote by Patrick Stewart that sums it up greatly:

"It is what you do from now on that will either move our civilization forward a few tiny steps, or else. . . begin to march us steadily backward."

So, there it is. That is what this book is about. Men taking a more active role in children's lives and behaving like men should. Men providing a positive example for others to hold up and admire about what it really means to be a man. This book is also a challenge to all men, including me, to be accountable for their actions.
