      “How do you teach your son God’s wisdom, intentionally? This book is the answer. I cannot speak highly enough about Manhood Is a Mindset. It follows the approach of the wisest man who ever lived, taking a young man through the foundational principles of Solomon’s wisdom and making them real to him. I plan to use the book with my own son. There is no other resource like it.”

      —Cody Libolt, Co-Founder,

      For the New Christian Intellectual

      “Colin Trisler has provided a valuable resource for family ministry. In Manhood Is a Mindset, Trisler highlights the importance of mentoring in the father-son relationship. His conversational approach is perfect for encouraging and equipping dads for their most important mission in life.”

      —Chris Shirley, Professor of Educational Ministries,

      Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary

      “What is manhood at its finest? In Manhood Is a Mindset, after wide research and deep meditations, J. Colin Trisler answers the question in ten letters to his son, and Solomon’s ancient wisdom ascends in modern style. Brace yourself and hear the startling voice of God. Recommended!”

      —D. Scott Meadows, Pastor,

      Calvary Baptist Church (Reformed), Exeter, New Hampshire

      “Amid the shifting sands of our world’s ideas about morality and manhood, J. Colin Trisler has provided solid ground for fathers to stand on as they endeavor to raise their sons to be great men. Using an engaging writing style full of pop culture references and modern illustrations, he expounds on the ancient wisdom of the book of Proverbs with clarity and logical precision.”

      —Billy Ford, Lead Pastor, Bouquet Canyon Church,

      Santa Clarita, California

      “Every good father knows the importance of instructing their children but cannot teach what they do not know. Manhood Is a Mindset is a thorough, well-considered work on wisdom for fathers who have been raised in an age of folly. Fathers, Trisler’s book is a tool that can help you build wise men out of the boys sacredly entrusted to you by the Lord.”

      —Matthew L. Nowlin, Director,

      Conservative Christians of Tennessee

      “I highly recommend Manhood Is a Mindset. It is a book that I wish I could have read when I was a teenaged boy and when I was raising my own son. J. Colin Trisler has written a book that will hook young readers with pop culture references while it teaches and inspires them from God’s wisdom in Proverbs. I will heartily share it with the boys that I work with.”

      —Kyle Ambrose, Principal of Longview Christian School, Longview, Texas

      “Trisler’s Manhood Is a Mindset is an engaging work relaying truths for young men to help them navigate life’s often grey areas without resorting to the maudlin or milquetoast tone of much of current literature. The message proved beneficial, notably his warnings of the perils found with worthless men and forbidden women. I recommend this book to any father, no matter their son’s age, and even just for their own edification and application.”

      —Cameron Brown, teacher, writer, and father of two sons

      “In preparation for fatherhood, Colin Trisler’s book fuels my motivation. He is skilled in demonstrating that the mental aspects of manhood are practical for daily life. Also, it is with certainty that I would introduce my son to the lady mentioned in letter number four. In all of the letters, wisdom is not just a lofty concept; instead, it is about the nuts and bolts of living as a good man.”

      —Anthony Ramos Peterson, teacher, Chicago, Illinois

      “Trisler has written a book that is much more than an enjoyable read or interesting subject. It is a practical tool that gives priceless advice for both young men and fathers navigating true and biblical manhood. The decision to write the book in the context of letters to his son proved to be a valuable roadmap for understanding how we should really be speaking and thinking about manhood and masculinity in our current society. The book is refreshing and unique in its approach in a way that feels closest to the actual truth about a subject that has been horribly misconstrued in today’s world. What Trisler has written will actually help Christian men understand manhood more than almost any other book on the subject, because it is spoken on the basis of ‘truth’ and ‘reality’ as its core for the foundation of what is required of men. I could simply not agree more with Trisler, and I am thankful for the blueprint it has given me as a father to my own son.”

      —Justin Wilson, Founder, Studium Sapientiae

      “By walking through the wisdom found in Proverbs, Trisler pulls out, with great clarity, valuable biblical truths that not only our sons need but the fathers teaching them as well. As Trisler mentions early on, manhood is not merely a ‘random acquisition’ but a mindset to be learned. Manhood Is a Mindset is a great resource for the church and I warmly recommend this book to fathers and sons everywhere.”

      —Scott Hutson, Ratio Christi Chapter Director,

      Dallas Baptist University

      “Manhood Is a Mindset strikes to the heart, from the introduction and throughout each practical example of truth riveted in biblical and life examples. God’s word reaches into every aspect of humanity in the psychology of the Psalms, yet Colin Trisler brings the life principles of wisdom into the lives of sons via Proverbs. As Sam Adams, the last Puritan, constantly wrote, our youth should be inculcated in ‘piety, religion and morality.’ Manhood Is a Mindset is a superb guide for dads to develop godly men.”

      —Tom Niewulis, author and founder of

      “Colin Trisler offers a tender yet strong look at biblical manhood in the form of these letters to his son. Well-read and wise, every dad should read this book. I was challenged and encouraged as I seek to raise my own two boys into men.”

      —Jesse Van Der Molen, high school English teacher

      “Mining ancient wisdom, affirming it as divine truth, and framing it creatively with contemporary, easy-to-understand illustrations, pastor J. Colin Trisler draws on the initial chapters of Proverbs to convey to his son—and to all fathers and sons—what manhood is from a biblical perspective. The high adventure of godly manhood is richly rewarding. It is fulfilling and exhilarating as is nothing else to a man; yet it also is challenging and demanding. With God’s help and with his father’s guidance, every boy can achieve biblical manhood. Here is a great place for both fathers and sons to begin!”
