- Rating: 5 out of 5 stars5/5In a lot of ways, today's culture and society is messed up. If you are trying to "train up" a Godly boy who will become a Godly man, you are facing many hurdles.In his "In The Thick of It," Jason Cruise details how to teach your own son how to act as a respectable, responsible Christian man.As the mother of boys, I appreciate all the wonderful advice Mr. Cruise has imparted on the raising of boys.I received a complimentary copy of this book from Barbour Publishing and was under no obligation to post a review.
