Some Catholic devotional books written specifically for men feature excerpts from Scripture, while others focus on quotes from the saints. But this book is different: it includes daily reflections that comprise both Scripture and saint quotes along with a relevant meditation meant to jump-start and strengthen a man’s spiritual life over the course of six months.
Popular speaker and author Fr. Wade Menezes, CPM, of the Fathers of Mercy, penned these rich, practical reflections for men of every vocation. His tight, powerpacked pages offer achievable resolutions and prudent advice on attaining your goals in everyday living.
The timely wisdom of this book will help you cultivate virtue and root out vice, preparing you to:
- Put on the armor of God for the daily struggle and withstand trials at home and at work
- Imitate Christ in guarding your senses and responding to temptation
- Develop greater trust in God and His mercy
- Fulfill your duties with diligence and balance while serving God and others
- Kindle your prayer life, better utilize your talents, and order your priorities
- Draw more from the Holy Sacrifice of the Mass
Fr. Menezes also incorporates key traditional prayers and litanies for weekly devotions and provides helpful cross-references for personal and group use. This daily spiritual manual will help you grow in knowledge of your faith and gain strength for spiritual battle to more fully become the man you were created and called to be.
Endorsements
Fr. Wade Menezes, a priest of the Fathers of Mercy, provides two hundred challenging daily meditations that are brief but incisive, on different spiritual themes, aimed at helping men become better men in their walk with the Lord. These reflections, in Stand Firm, Be Strong, are a great gift to the Church, reflecting a profound spirituality for men. They can be used for private daily meditation and also as a follow-up to a retreat that has sent them searching for greater depth in their spiritual lives. On day 85, Fr. Menezes reminds his readers that ‘holiness is not an isolated task,’ and ‘we need to encourage one another toward holiness to become great saints.’ With the help of these meditations, men can help other men to become great saints!
Robert Baker
The Church needs good men — strong, virtuous, pious, holy men! In his book Stand Firm, Be Strong, Fr. Wade Menezes, CPM, offers men a six-month daily devotional grounded in the Word of God and the wisdom of the saints. Each daily entry takes only a few minutes to read, but the impact and good fruit it will bring about in the lives of individual men will be everlasting. I highly recommend this daily devotional!
