God’s Man: 25 Characteristics of a Godly Man

Every man is two men: the one people see, and the one who exists when no one is watching. The distance between them is the exact measure of his character.

The Godly Man is a 25-week Bible study for men who are tired of performing and ready to be formed. Not a devotional to skim. Not a motivational pep talk. A structured, Scripture-anchored examination of the 25 characteristics that define a man who walks with God — built in private, witnessed in public.

Across five modules, this study moves from the foundation outward:

• Module One — Integrity: Walks in integrity · Fears the Lord · Leads his family well · Controls his tongue · Remains sexually pure
• Module Two — Service & Devotion: Serves others humbly · Prays consistently · Studies God’s Word · Keeps his word · Manages money wisely
• Module Three — Relationships: Pursues peace · Works with excellence · Pursues accountability · Loves sacrificially · Practices generosity
• Module Four — Heart Posture: Forgives freely · Remains humble · Stands for justice · Guards his mind · Endures with faith
• Module Five — Legacy & Mission: Mentors the next generation · Confesses and repents quickly · Loves the church · Shares his faith boldly · Finishes well

Every session includes:

• A key Scripture and a substantive teaching that digs into the original Hebrew and Greek
• “Going Deeper” supporting passages with commentary
• Honest, uncomfortable life-application questions with space to write
• Personal study exercises and self-assessment tools
• Group discussion questions built for real conversation, not polite agreement
• A memory verse, a concrete weekly action step, and a closing prayer

Each session stands alone as a complete study. Together they form a portrait of a whole man — undivided in heart, consistent in conduct, and grounded in the fear of God.

Written for men’s groups, discipleship pairs, church small groups, mentors and the men they’re raising up, and any man willing to answer the questions honestly. Work through a session on your own during the week, then bring it to the table. The study closes with a written covenant and a challenge most men never take seriously enough: write the eulogy you want to be true, then start closing the gap.

Integrity is not perfection. It is the refusal to live in pretense.
