Becoming a Godly Black man in Today’s World

About the Book

What does it mean to be a Goodly Black man in today’s world? Not the stereotyped version. Not the polished performance. Not the bougie image. But the real, Spirit-formed man God is calling you to become. The Black Christian Man’s Journey Through Titus is a groundbreaking exploration of identity, conviction, leadership, and spiritual maturity for Black men ages 30–60. Rooted in the book of Titus yet fully aware of the cultural realities Black men face, this book bridges the gap between biblical instruction and lived experience. Inside these pages, you will explore ten foundations of a godly man — rooted in Scripture yet forged through lived experience: • Rooted Character that stands firm in a world designed to shake you • Resolved Conviction that anchors your decisions • Responsible Leadership shaped through humility, not image • Reliable Teaching that passes on wisdom to the next generation • Right Doctrine that guards the heart from cultural drift • Relational Discipleship that strengthens brotherhood • Responsible Churchmanship grounded in service, not performance • Reliable Presence at Home where faith becomes real • Responsible Work & Witness in the spaces where you labor • Rich Good Works that define the legacy you leave behind Each chapter speaks directly to the heart of a man learning to lead with humility, love with wisdom, guard truth with courage, and walk with Christ in a world that often misunderstands him. This is not a commentary. This is not a lecture. This is a conversation between Scripture, culture, and calling. Written for Black Christian men — and those who lead them, mentor them, or walk with them — this book provides clarity, context, and courage for the road ahead. You are not defined by your past. You are shaped by the God who calls you. Walk this journey. Become the man Christ designed you to be.
