About this ebook
Life brings many pressures to teen boys—friends, school, social media, temptation, emotions, and thoughts about the future. This devotional encourages young men not to collapse under pressure, but to stand firm in Christ with a sincere heart.
Based on the key verse, 1 Corinthians 16:13 — “Be on your guard; stand firm in the faith; be courageous; be strong” — this May devotional walks teen boys through four powerful weekly themes: standing firm in faith, having courage to do what is right, developing discipline when no one is watching, and finding strength to keep going.
Each weekly devotion includes:
A clear Bible verse
A simple and relatable devotion
A real-life moment teen boys can understand
Reflection questions
A weekly challenge
A heartfelt prayer
A faith-building declaration
Written in a direct, encouraging, and easy-to-understand style, this devotional speaks to young men in a way that feels real, practical, and spiritually strengthening. It does not demand perfection. Instead, it reminds every teen boy that he can grow stronger by staying close to God.
This devotional is ideal for personal quiet time, youth groups, teen Bible studies, mentoring, family devotion, and Christian schools.
Built to Stand will help teen boys learn that real strength is not being loud, proud, or fake strong. Real strength comes from God. It is the strength to say no, tell the truth, stay disciplined, keep going, and stand firm in Christ.
A powerful May devotional for teen boys who want to grow in faith, courage, discipline, and godly strength.

About the author
Established in 2017 under the themed scripture Acts 19:20, the Jesus Bible Foundation sprouted from a profound realization: The timeless teachings of the Bible, in our rapidly evolving digital era, risked becoming eclipsed by the relentless surge of information. In response, a committed group of scholars, theologians, and laypeople rallied together, united by a collective vision: to reintroduce the Bible's ageless wisdom into daily modern life in a way that is both accessible and profoundly relevant.
Acts 19:20 - "In this powerful way, the word of the Lord kept spreading and growing stronger."
It is the greatest pleasure to share the scriptures with you and I hope you will be blessed through them.
