Men, are you confident? If not, do you ever ask yourself why not?  Where  do you find your source of confidence?  God wants us to be confident and helps us with confidence. Confidence is important for every man! Proverbs 3:26 For the LORD will be your confidence and will keep your foot from being caught. Harry Truman said, “Not all readers are leaders, but all leaders are readers.” Here are some books for becoming better husbands, fathers, and spiritual leaders and build confidence: https://www.mensalliancetribe.com/bookshelf Looking for other ways to build confidence?
