It is a constant challenge to be the husband and the father we are called by God to be and to give our wife and children what they need us to give. This book is designed to be read by the dad who is busy making a living at a job but does not want to overlook making a life at home. My hope is that each story will make you laugh or think or even cry, and that God will use this book to encourage you in your own journey as a godly man. There are fifty-two life lessons in this book, one for each week of the year. They are not dated, so you can start anytime in the year and use it for the next 52 weeks. Or, you can read the lessons in 52 days if you like. Or, 52 hours. Hey, you could probably read through the whole book in about 52 minutes, but I don't think you would be able to do all the action items that fast. Nor would you want to  At the end of each lesson, there is a prayer you can read as an encouragement to your own heart's cry to the Lord. There is also an action item that exhorts you to do something in response to what you just read. Hey, I'm a guy, too. I know the tendency we guys have to believe that just thinking about something, or just hearing a good idea and agreeing with it is equivalent to actually DOING it  Sorry. I wish it were so, but that's just not going to fly. Go ahead and check your bags with Reality Airlines and follow through on those good intentions you have entertained for years. This book, I hope, will help you to do that. If nothing else, you will have a collection of wild and funny and sobering stories to share with your family around the supper table. Or, if you are a pastor or a teacher, these pages can help you illustrate biblical truths in your next sermon or Sunday School lesson. No matter how you use this book, my prayer is that it will be a blessing to you. And I would love to hear from you.

A Faithful Man is drawn from Fox's own passion to be the man in his home that his family needs, and to help other men do the same. Starting with his own story of wanderings and failures, Fox leads the reader into a biblical and practical understanding of what it means to be a prophet, priest, protector and provider. Most husbands and fathers have a desire to lead their families, but they testify that they don't know how to lead. J. Mark Fox has solved that problem in his book A Faithful Man. Flowing out of a passion for Jesus Christ to be glorified in the lives and families of those who bear His name, Mark provides clear, biblical, practical, doable encouragement for men as leaders of their families. The heart-warming personal stories, interesting illustrations, and helpful examples make the book relational as well as entertaining. As you read you feel like you're visiting with a friend, a fellowlaborer in the field of family life. A Faithful Man, written in a simple, easy-to-read style, invites you to read on attentively much like someone prospecting for gold stays at his task - the prospect of another treasure on the next page or in the next chapter. Any man who seriously desires to be a Christ-like leader of his family will be encouraged and equipped by J. Mark Fox's A Faithful Man. - Norm Wakefield, Author, Speaker, and Executive Director and Founder of The Spirit of Elijah Ministries International J. Mark Fox has provided the men of the contemporary church with an insightful handbook on what it means to be a Christian father. Grounded in Scripture and theologically sound, Fox writes in such a way that allows any man, wherever he is in his Christian walk, to understand, act upon, and fulfill his God-given right and responsibility to his family. This is a necessary book for the Christian home both today and in the years to come. What is so refreshing about the manner in which Fox writes is that he is not afraid to admit and confess that he has had to learn much of what he writes about through trial and error. Even more refreshing is the fact that he readily acknowledges he is still learning. J. Mark Fox demonstrates through his excellent illustrations, his brilliant use of Scripture, and his own personal testimony that men are called and directed by God to live a lifestyle of discipleship within their families. - W.
