Real Wisdom

Craftsmen is designed to help men understand Biblical wisdom, to see Jesus Christ as the embodiment and source of wisdom, and to apply that wisdom to the God-given role of husband and father.

“John Crotts opens up the wisdom of Proverbs as it applies to us in the twenty first century. This book is especially valuable for fathers who desire to help their children grow in godly wisdom."
   —Jerry Bridges

“This is God’s world and to live in it successfully—as a student or leader, spouse or parent, “butcher, or baker, or candlestick-maker”—we need wisdom. John Crotts’ study of biblical wisdom is an excellent practical introduction on how to craft a life full of wisdom. The chapter on wise sexuality is especially vital reading.”
   — Michael A. G. Haykin, Principal, Toronto Baptist Seminary

“John Crotts points us to the wisest book ever written (Proverbs) by the wisest man who ever lived (Solomon), as he received instruction from our all-wise God. Every Christian and every Christian family ought to read and heed this masterful manual that easily unfolds the ABCs of living and leading skillfully.”
   — Richard Mayhue, Executive Vice President, The Master’s College and Seminary

“John writes out of his own excellent pastoral ministry of preaching and shepherding, and as both a fellow pastor and pilgrim I was wonderfully helped. Whether young or old, new believer or seasoned saint, may this slender but powerful book be your own wise guide.”
   — Lance Quinn, Pastor-Teacher, The Bible Church of Little Rock

“Many young men tell me they desire to lead their families but they do not know how; they have no solid examples of male leadership to follow. Craftsmen meets that need. Crotts writes with clarity and insight about how to find and exhibit wisdom in skillfully leading the family.”
   — Tedd Tripp, Pastor, author, conference speaker
