I have to be completely honest, I've never been much of a guy for Bible studies. Sure the Friday morning breakfast at Perkins and the social aspect was fairly good, but the discussions never really felt relevant to me. That's until now!

This Bible study not only draws from the wisdom of a well-respected Christian and coach, Tony Dungy, but it speaks to the questions that I grapple with as a male in today's society. All the while weaving in interesting football trivia and sports analogies as well as "guy-specific" activities.

Guys, I have to say this is one Bible study you're going to want to do.

Though not for every man, especially those who are disinterested in sports, "Quiet Strength: Mens Study Bible" is certainly a rare and rich treasure for the man who loves sports, in particular football. Of course, even those who don't can gain greatly from the six theme questions, though they may find the football focus less attractive.

This study Bible explores six questions that help men to deal with real life today in a relevant, Christian way, while building relationships and Christlike character.

It is focused around and released simultaneously with Tony Dungy's new book, "Quiet Strength." The six questions explored are: What is my game plan? What is my strength? What is my success? Where is my security? What is my significance? What is my legacy?

I gave this book to my adult son. He is not what I would call an avid reader. However, he was so impressed that he read this book in two settings on two consecutive days. THIS BOOK MUST BE REALLY GOOD! I plan to borrow his copy and read it during the holidays. Signed, impressed Mom

My men's group found this study to be a good one for us. While the questions are important and make each individual think about how they themselves must answer, the book is written in a way that it doesn't intimidate anyone. We have everything from high school guys to guys in their early 50s and all found it applicable to their lives. It made for interesting discussions and caused each man to learn something new about himself. Highly recommend.

As a companion piece to his best-selling book by the same title, respected and influential NFL head coach Tony Dungy delves into the knowledge, inspiration and lessons contained in the Bible.

The study sections are built upon six questions:

* What is my game plan?
* What is my strength?
* What is success?
* Where is my security?
* What is my significance?
* What is my legacy?

An excellent guide to be used by an individual or in groups, coach Dungy styles this playbook for any male wishing to open his heart and make a strong commitment to live a better life.

I bought this for my son who really does not read much. He completed the book and the study lessons. He really enjoyed it.

Along with 13 other men, I meet each Friday morning at 6 a.m. for an hour of bible study. We are current using Tony Dungy's Quite Strenth. This is a tremendous book for men who need encouragement, as they deal with life's challenges. The study has made it easy for the men to open up and share with the group in a way that I never thought possible. I facilitate the discussion and have had several men tell me they look forward to the session each week. Tony has based the study on strong christian principles backed by scripture. Excellent study!

I got this for a man who needs creative ways to get points across so I started with a person he likes.

Whether a Football fan or not, Quiet Strength will speak to any man. Tony Dungys life is an example that a group of men could grow from. Studying this as a coffee talk series or after a workout time would help a mens group bond.

This book needs to be read by both young and old. Not for men and boys but for women and girls. This family has a lot of Christian views that would help us all to remember exactly who we should turn to in time of need! The LORD!!!! Not drugs or alcohol!!!
