The Last Men's Book You'll Ever Need [Paperback]

David Moore (Author)

Book Description

Publication Date: May 1, 2008

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.

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.

5.0 out of 5 stars Worth the read for women as well as men, May 2, 2008

This is a "get to the point" book. Actually, it is not SO manly that a woman wouldn't benefit from reading it. I (being a woman)actually didn't skip any chapter (or page, for that matter). The book was worth my time; I looked forward to each chapter. In addition, I look forward to reading many of the titles mentioned in the notes at the end of each chapter. This book could actually serve as a resource for delving into other books (current and classics). For that reason, the book appeals to the casual reader as well as readers who desire a deeper look.

3.0 out of 5 stars It was a good idea., July 6, 2008

This review is from: The Last Men's Book You'll Ever Need (Paperback)

This book is well written but isn't the book that will bring the men out of the woodwork. I was worried it would be too deep, but instead it lacks any depth and never really speaks to the everyday male in my congregation. It is also on the conservative side of theology and consistently refers to God as he instead of as God. I didn't hate it, nor did I love it.
