Preparing young Men for Christian Marriage
"Prepare thy work without, and make it fit for thyself in the field, and afterwards build thine house." —Proverbs 24:27
Young men—this verse was written for you! Like the farmer, you need to faithfully tend the fields you've been entrusted with right now, so that you will be ready to support and lead your household later in life. This book will help you rightly order your actions in these years of your youth: prepare for your callings first, and only afterwards, pursue courtship, marriage, and raising a godly family.
This book will also provide ideas for you, parents, as you help your sons grow in manhood and prepare for godly marriage. Read this book while your sons are young so you know where you are aiming, and then work through it with them as they mature.
Prepare Thy Work is packed with material to help young men lay a strong foundation for their future, including Bible studies, examination questions, discussion topics, counsel from godly men, projects, recommended resources, and lots more.
Chapters include the following:
- Faith & Doctrine
- Godly Manhood
- Vocation
- Finances
- Dowry
- Courtship
- Family Vision

Daniel has been putting these principles to work in his own life, and is now reaping the rewards! Daniel has waited on God for the gift of a faithful wife, and God has honored his heart's desire.
