This is not a study of Proverbs but a study of Christian fatherhood issues for men who have chosen or considering that worldview. In that case FFF would be a great tool for a young men's discipleship study or a father - son study. A hardback copy would be an excellent gift idea. The book is filled with fun, colorful illustrations that make reading easy. The author deals with the usual social ills of words, sex, temper, alcohol, money, work and friends. The strategy of the outline should not be overlooked: What is fatherhood? What are the issues? What will you do? As a father, leader and discipler of four (now seven) children and grandfather of five, this will certainly be a top shelf reference in my library. Men who understand and are in the game should strongly consider this book. If the cover picture doesn't hook you, don't buy it.

This book is an excellent resource for men who want to better raise their children, and become better fathers. It teaches how we can become wiser in a world that is content with dumbing us down and how to stand up for our beliefs and what is right. It uses the Bible as its resource and the examples of wise Biblical leaders such as Solomon. It's easy to read and undertand, and I definitely recommend it.
