Book Synopsis

"You will be encouraged, enlightened, and empowered to become the mom you've always wanted to be--and to guide your son into becoming the man God intended."
--Cindi McMenamin, national speaker and author of When Women Walk Alone
Bringing up boys isn't for the faint of heart, but bestselling author Rhonda Stoppe has been there before--and she's here to help! Drawing on insights from fellow boy-moms and from Scripture, Rhonda reveals why walking with Christ is every mom's key to parenting well.

You'll discover how motherhood gives you unique opportunities to grow in faith as you draw nearer to God through prayer, Bible study, and mentorship from godly women. You'll also find practical advice for shaping your son in character and faith as you encourage his passions, teach him biblical masculinity, and protect his spirit without smothering his individuality.

Your success as a mother doesn't depend on what your son does with his life, but on how you obey God's guidance on this mission of motherhood. Moms Raising Sons to Be Men provides the biblical hope, wisdom, and encouragement you need to help your son live a life without regrets!

Review Quotes

"How can a mother nurture her son in our floundering world where men of integrity are in short supply? What hope is there for single moms and broken homes in our alien society? With expertise and compassion, Rhonda Stoppe guides readers through biblical truths and commonsense solutions to assure it can be done. Meaningful manhood, she writes, begins with a discerning, dedicated mother. Here is a book every boy's mom needs."
--Jeanne Hendricks, author, wife of the late Howard G. Hendricks (professor of Dallas Theological Seminary)

"Moms make a difference with their sons. Rhonda leads us on an important journey with humor, authenticity, and transparency learning from the Moms found in the pages of Scripture. I found it so refreshing to look at them with the new lens that Rhonda brings. This book is for every mom - just starting out or in the midst of raising a son. Perhaps most important for many moms is the thoughtful way that Rhonda brings encouragement when a son wanders far from God. While the whole book is a blessing, I believe that part three of this book "Even if..." will wash over the hearts and souls of many and replace the despair of a prodigal with peace and hope."
--Ed Gossien, chief ministry officer at Awana
