Product Description

Guys might hate asking for directions, but they certainly won’t resist the guidance found in The Last Men’s Book You’ll Ever Need. Author David Moore combines his Bible scholar background with a humorous Dave Barry-esque style of writing that makes sensitive subjects like sexual temptation, love of money, busy-ness, and “the shrinking American soul” much easier to ponder and improve upon.

 

And the seemingly playful title is actually based on a strong thread of sincerity. Moore is concerned about the overabundance of spiritual “how-to” books that fail to put enough emphasis on the sufficiency of the Bible. “One very clear tactic of the Enemy is trying to get us away from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ,” he says.

 

Put first things first with The Last Men’s Book You’ll Ever Need.

4.0 out of 5 stars Trust me, it won't be the LAST book...it'll be the FIRST of many!, April 15, 2008

By	Dan Panetti "Worldview Director" (Plano, TX USA) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

A great little book of wisdom, Moore has written something that men might actually read. It is short, engaging, interesting and useful. The title is misleading, however, this book should be the first book, not the last, that a Christian man reads - it is filled with wonderful suggestions for further study - from references to Jeremiah Burrough's A Rare Jewel of Christian Contentment to William Law's classic A Serious Call to a Devout and Holy Life, Moore shares his depth of insight and wisdom as a husband, father and godly man with others in this easy-to-read book. The book is intended to be used by men's groups; there are excellent discussion questions at the end of each chapter and since the chapters are short, the discussion with other men will be an important element of the effectiveness of this book. This book would be a great starting place for a young Christian or an excellent reminder for a more mature believer - a book that gets you to examine your priorities and your pursuits. Moore may interject humor at all the right places, but the book is a pretty serious read and hopefully more men will pick it up and realize that the Christian walk is a serious, and exciting, journey. The Last Men's Book You'll Ever Need will hopefully be one of many that Christian men read as this book ignites a passion within men to be the leaders of their families and our communities and not just their businesses.

Finally, a book that cuts through all the junk and gets to the heart of what matters. Moore brings out issues all men need to grapple with and he tells us how.

This is truly the "Last Men's Book You'll Ever Need"!

5.0 out of 5 stars It's Worth Your Time, April 8, 2008

By	Howard C. Morrison "readsalot" (Gilbert, AZ) - See all my reviews (REAL NAME)

This book came in the mail from Amazon, I opened it, sat down and didn't get up until I'd read the whole thing!

David has a very readable style. You'll enjoy him. His sense of humor comes through while he doesn't shy away from tackling key men's issues with solid content. He clearly practices what he preaches as seen in his vulnerability. Sounds like a guy worth listening to.

OK, so the title is a bit tongue in cheek. Don't let that keep you from cracking open the book.

The book is very practical. You'll fine regular sections for discussion and application. I happen to be a big book guy (read a lot) so I particularly apprecaited dozens and dozens of recommended readings and references.

David will guide you straight to the source of what it really means to be a man. I hope you'll take the journey and never be the same for having invested in reading THE LAST MEN'S BOOK YOU'LL EVER NEED.
