I have always had a fascination with understanding people particularly men, maybe this stems from the fact that I was very close to my father (now deceased) and brother when I was younger. What affected them had a direct knock on effect on me and the rest of the family. As I grew older and entered my first relationship I started to recognise a pattern of self destruction in men and I needed to know why.

There many years ago began my quest for knowledge and understanding; I believe that God is using Dr Myles Munroe in an `awesome' way. My first introduction to him was when he visited the ministry in England, that I was a part of and spoke on the Primary Purpose of Man, this seminar explained the disconnection of man/woman to God and the consequences of that disconnection, giving clear illustrations, for example complicated technology that is used without first reading the instruction can appear to malfunction when in fact nothing is wrong with the machinery it is just not being used correctly and to its full capacity, he likens this to man/woman not knowing God and so continuously trying to find him/herself. Dr Munroe explains that no matter how successful they become there is an emptiness something is missing, something that no matter how hard they try they cannot find as they are looking in the wrong area.

This book explores the male in depth from a different angle; it looks at what it means to be a man with and without God, and delves into their innate drive to find fulfilment and purpose and examines what happens when purpose is not found. In this book is the answer to many questions that the world is asking such as what is happening in society today? Why are brothers killing brothers? Why are men taking something so precious from women (their bodies) irrespective of their age but give nothing in return it also explains why women let them. Why is recreational and illegal drug use on the increase? Why are people fearful to walk the streets at night indeed why are the older people in society not treated with respect? Why has the family structure broken down? Why is society as we know it, in chaos?

I know that there are a lot of why's at the end of this review but I make no apologies for that as the answers are in this book. On a final note God ordained men to be leaders whether they believe in Him or not, and whatever they lead on they will do to the best of their ability and it doesn't matter if what they are doing is good or bad, they will still do it to the best of their ability for example their bad will be really bad and their good will be really good. The thing with being a leader is that leaders set examples for others to follow, (what you do your children will do) When you thought he wasn't looking, he learned most of life's lessons that he needed to know from you.

This is a must read book for men and women, it is clear and concise, Dr Monroe writes with such simplicity that even a child could read it and get understanding, in fact I recommend that you get your children to read it so that they are clued up and don't repeat previous generations mistakes. I will definitely be reading Understanding the Purpose and Power of Woman.

The power to define is the power to determine destiny. If you want understanding of your masculinity and your purpose as a man then Dr. Myles Monroe's book is for you. I found the book to be an indeph look into the masculine soul. It is a book that women will never forget and a book that men will never feel alone again. If you want God's purpose for your life as a man, then this book is a powerful tool for men who want to find their way off the False Roads To Manhood which is a book out that helps men too.

I was looking for a book about relationships, something that could really make me understand the man in my life. I have never been so happy that I read this book. I suggested to my friends, both men and women, that if they care for one another and want some answers to the problems in their relationships--this is the book. Dr. Munroe is a God sent! He made me realize that we as women have to get back to God. He has all the answers to our questions. Please read this book. I did in 3 days and I'm almost finished Understanding the Purpose and Power of Women.

This is a must read for every man.
Read it READ IT read it
to understand who God created you to be

This book pretty much covers everything. If you're a man searching to live the life God has for you, read this book. It will help you understand yourself, God's plan from the beginning, and then you can pass it off to your wife. I think it would be equally beneficial for the woman in your life to read this book as well in hopes of you both knowing where you're coming from and how you both are designed to help one another. That's my two cents. Read it and prove me wrong. You may just find the answers you've been looking for.

This is the book that put me on the journey to discover and apply accurate manhood principles for my life. I have given or recommended this book to countless men that have been blessed from it's content. I now live and teach these principles to other men and have had a better marraige, life and ministry as a result of the impact that this book has made on my life. A must read for every man and every woman who wants to understand her man.

I'm part of a book club at church & this is the book we're currently reading. I'm only in the middle of chapter 4, but so far I find that the book has great information. However, it drags at times. I felt the entire chapter 3 could've been a paragraph instead of a chapter.

I do look forward to chapters 4 & beyond, where the info is more in-depth.

I found this book so enlightening. It gave so much insight into the male way of thinking and actions as it pertains to the word of God. This book is a very easy read and is not preachy. I recommend this book to both Christian and non Christians alike. I originally purchased this book after reading the author's "The Power and Purpose of Women" which I found an awesome read as well. I enjoy motivational literature and this book really helped me to understand my place in life as a woman.These two books together help men and women understand their roles in life. I recommend buying both and giving them to a friend that may want to understand male and female relations and dating on a higher level!!

Dr. Myles Munroe has done it again! If ever you wanted to know the steps to being in your rightful, God given place, this book will help you. It explains, biblically, the hows, whys and whens of manhood and claiming what is rightfully yours by the Word of God. Please, please, please buy this book, men and women and it will change you outlook, your perspective, your way of thinking and your life!
