Pastor and founder of the Benjamin E. Mays Male Academy, Rev. Dr. James C. Perkins knows what a critical time in life the early tween and teen years are for African American boys. So he has compiled a game plan for black males ages 12–15 that supplies twelve essential lessons to sustain them in their growth from young boys to men of integrity and godly character. The “plays” he outlines include identity, purpose, and spirituality, as well as practical approaches to financial responsibility, relationships, sexuality, leadership, and more—all packaged in a playbook format that offers a basic formation, blocking and pass strategies, and a clear view of the goal line. Makes a great gift for a son, grandson, nephew, brother, or other eighth-grade graduates in your life!
