The Five Marks of a Man: Finding Your Path to Courageous Manhood
A boy doesn't automatically become a man at age 18. What differentiates a man from a boy is the way he lives. A boy lives day to day, wants to be MVP, plays, wants the reassurance of the crowd, and is a predator. A man has a vision for his life, is a team player, works, has the courage to take a minority position, and is a protector. These are the five marks of a man. It's not enough to just know them. A real man aggressively pursues them on a daily basis.
Drawing from his own experience and the lives of others, pastor Brian Tome calls on men to examine themselves and take steps in the direction of a fully realized manhood that honors God, respects women, elevates others, and works purposefully for an end greater than their own satisfaction or pleasure. It's time for men to step into their honorable place in the world and lean into a new reality--one defined by strength, purpose, and honor.

One of the best books I've read that spurs a boy into becoming a man.
Straightforward, cutting to the heart of the matter, and focused on action.
Read it for your wife, your children, but most importantly for you - "... Go and be a man...,"

Not a bad book. Definitely for beginners of The Word. Tome guides you through 5 steps that man should weigh everyday in the growth of this life on Earth. Young adult boys should read this book as well, if they plan to forge the way forward in Christ. Decent questions to reflect on, in each section end.
