Let’s relearn how to learn from each other.

“Kent has given us a roadmap for a new kind of organic mentoring – one that’s perfect for those of us with little extra time to seek out formal mentoring relationships. He shows us how we as men can sharpen ourselves with the people we already do life with.”

“In a creative and fresh way, Kent will set you on a journey of becoming a Wise Guy. His practical insight, honest evaluations, and life lessons will cause you to reflect on how you are engaging with others in your life. An easy read. I’d encourage any man to develop their own life lessons in the way Kent models.”

“I know Kent’s desire in writing this book is to help you be a better man through the memorable stories and real-life tips. If you read and share this book, somewhere in the world, a boy will become a man. I don’t speak for Kent, but I’m pretty sure it’s in the fine print of this book. Look closely.”

“As men, we’re so often attracted to the star of the podium, never considering the incredible people who worked so hard to get them there. But every single one of those medal winners surrounded themselves with others who drew out strengths and trained out the weaknesses. Using personal experiences with the ordinary men in his own life, Kent has written a candid and straightforward book that will encourage you to take an honest look at who you are and how you can get up and win as a husband, father and man.”

“This is a great read. Kent’s practical, down-to-earth and intentional living is contagious. Now it’s accessible in this book which will certainly shape how you think and live.”

“I’ve always defined true ministry as the process of walking through something with God and then being vulnerable enough to turn around and walk someone else through, too. Kent’s infectious passion to develop Christ-like men is evident in his writing and you will be both challenged and inspired by this collection of characteristic profiles of men who have gone before to show the way. Bravo, Kent. You are walking us through.”

“Kent has written a remarkably clever, humorous, insightful and challenging book that is both readable and instructive. He recounts a host of personal examples accumulated over the years and concludes with 11 practical tips on how to be a better man, a more effective professional and more devoted disciple-maker. I predict you will thoroughly enjoy Wise Guys while you ‘unlock hidden wisdom from the men around you.’”

“Kent doesn’t just give us a list of qualities aimed at ‘guilting’ us to trying harder, to be better. Instead, he introduces us to a fist-full of men worth meeting. As the quick-to-read stories unfold, we get to know these wise guys. Thanks to Kent’s honestly hilarious writing style, you’ll drop your guard long enough to want to copy the character and wisdom generously offered in this book, man-to-man.”

“As you read this book, Kent Evans will take you on a journey. You’ll learn what is required to become more the man God has called you to be. This book is going to get in your head and give you a brand new mindset.”

“The Bible clearly encourages Christians to seek after wisdom and surround themselves with godly
friends and mentors. As Proverbs states, we can only truly flourish with “an abundance of counselors” (Prov 11:14). Wise Guys is a careful and clear treatment of the role godly counselors play in the lives of Christians. For those who want to grow in maturity and wisdom, Evans’ book deserves careful consideration.”
