Becoming a King

Every man longs to be entrusted with power—but few are prepared to wield it well.

In Becoming a King, Morgan Snyder invites men on a journey of inner transformation, guiding them to become the kind of men to whom God can entrust His Kingdom. Drawing from over two decades of experience and the lives of more than seventy-five men, Snyder uncovers an ancient path to restoring the masculine soul. This book challenges readers to reconstruct their understanding of masculinity, embrace their God-given identity, and step into a life of strength, courage, and purpose.
