Synopsis "Get in the Galley and Row"
Now, when David had served God's purpose in his generation, he fell asleep.Acts 13:36 What do you want people to say about you when you've died? In this new book for men, John Triffitt looks at this stunning epitaph for King David in Acts 13:36, showing how the word "served" refers to one who rowed below decks in the Roman navy. Before David died, he became an under-rower in God's galley.In each chapter, JT highlights one of seven core values from the life of David, and the life of a Roman sailor, which illustrates how we row in God's galley: OPPORTUNITY, BRAVERY, HUMILITY, INDUSTRY, UNITY, INTEGRITY, DESTINYGod is looking for men whose lives not only echo in the generation after them but resound in the generation in which they live right now. Will you embrace the opportunity of a lifetime in the lifetime of the opportunity? Will you row for God in your generation, serving his purpose?Get in the Galley and Row is the second in a series of small books with big impact. The first, Men of Dust, Men of Glory, was published in 2019. Each volume is written to encourage men to embrace Biblical manhood and masculinity. Each volume follows on from JT's books, Behold the Man and Freedom Fighters.John Triffitt serves as Senior Associate Pastor alongside Senior Pastors Robert and Virginia Maasbach at Life Church in Folkestone, England.
