Editorial Reviews

The BOOK All DADs MUST READ and put into ACTION!
By Cardiff Hall on December 23, 2015
From the opening, Mark puts you right in the action watching the pitcher from the stands with the radar guns and you feel the cold he describes. The opening quiz hits you right in the head and makes you honestly answer questions, you don't spend time thinking about. The stats are sobering yet real and truly makes you think about your role as a dad. I am a dad and have one daughter, yet I see the value in a book like this even for dads who have daughters. The playbook Mark created is brilliant and allows you to take the journey with your son, which allows for growth personally with your son. This is an excellent book which is a MUST READ for any DAD!

Stat reports, game plans, key plays, pre-game planning...Mark LaMaster uses the game of football to hook fathers into his ten game plan for their future success in guiding their sons through difficult life circumstances. Biblically based, his book is practical, easy-to-follow, and encouraging to dads everywhere who aspire to be more than just good fathers. His passion to help dads become great life coaches threads through every page.

By Robin Nickerson on December 11, 2015
A touch down of authenticity for the father son team, no flags, no fowls just a magnificent play in a tense time in the game of life. A powerful message that has the potential to leave a legacy of empowerment for future generations. But the drills must be practiced and exicuted daily so the father son relationship can transform the life we live in the world today, tomorrow and for generations to come.

By Kary Oberbrunner on December 8, 2015
The world needs strong men and a bunch more of them. These men must feel fully, lead boldly, and serve wholeheartedly. They must love God and people.

While it's easy to pontificate about such a need, Author Mark LaMaster did something about this need. First-although imperfect like the rest of us-he, with the help of his Savior Jesus Christ, decided to become that type of man himself.

Secondly, he decided to help other men demystify the process by distilling his model into a simple handbook for fathers and sons. We now finally have a Game Plan for dads to help develop their sons into the men God intended them to be.

Many fathers and sons crave a stronger connection with each other and their God. Unfortunately, most of the time, we're just not sure how to do this. Friday Night Lights for Fathers and Sons provides the answer. Discover how to schedule a 10-Game Day season with your son. Each Game Day is designed to engage dads and their sons in conversation on topics ranging from faith and friends to prayer and purity.

Author Mark LaMaster's purpose and passion is to help good dads become GREAT dads by providing intentional, Biblically based activities to help them raise their sons to become godly young men.

If you sincerely "read" this book, you'll become the man God is calling you to be. But if you sincerely "do" this book-with your son by your side-you'll leave an enduring legacy for generations to come.

This year I've scheduled my own 10-Game Day season with my son Keegan. We can't wait to dive into this content. Thanks Mark for equipping us on how to do this successfully.
