"Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. (1 Corinthians 16:13 ESV)

God has a special calling for men to be strong, courageous leaders, and His Scripture can provide the inspiration you need to take daily steps toward your calling.

This collection of Bible verses for men will encourage you as you grow in your faith and seek God's wisdom for your life. Use these throughout your day to remind yourself of the type of man you should strive to be and why.
