Men for God by David Pawson: A Review
David Pawson on why churches lose men and whether a man's job is his real service to God. Strong material on work, and a roles position that goes further than ours.

Taking Men Alive by Jim Wilson: A Review
A short, practical evangelism handbook from a Navy officer turned pastor who spent forty years actually doing it. What it offers and what it does not.
40 Strong by Jerrell Jobe: A Review
A 40-day push for men from a pastor of 25 years who now leads biblical study tours. What we verified about the author, and what we could not verify about the format.
A Blueprint for Discipleship by Kevin M. Watson: A Review
Kevin Watson on Wesley's three General Rules and the weekly accountability that made them work. A nine-week Methodist study, useful well outside Methodism.
Christian Brotherhood, Volume 2 by Henri Daniel-Rops: A Review
Not a book about male friendship. Daniel-Rops writes Catholic church history on Christian division and the separated brethren. What the book really is.
The Debt Trap by Dennis Wilson: A Review
Dennis Wilson frames debt as a spiritual and emotional problem. The payoff methods are the standard ones, so here is who should buy it and who should not.
The Seven P’s of Biblical Manhood by Dewayne Rembert: A Review
A seven-day devotional, not a program. What the Seven P's framework covers, who Dewayne Rembert is, and where the framework goes further than we do.
Holy Sexuality and the Gospel by Christopher Yuan: A Review
Christopher Yuan's case that chastity in singleness and faithfulness in marriage is one standard for everyone. What the book does well, and the one live disagreement inside it.
Your Journey With Jesus, for Men by Bart Blair: A Review
A one-on-one discipleship curriculum, not a solo devotional. Who Bart Blair is, the near-identical women's edition to avoid, and what the book is good for.
The Monks of Tibhirine by John W. Kiser: A Review
Not a leadership book. John Kiser's history of seven Trappist monks killed in Algeria in 1996, and why they refused to leave. Read this before you buy.
Friendship with God by Jamie Moore: A Review
Jamie Moore's book is about friendship with God, not friendship between men. What it argues, the charismatic framing to expect, and what we could not verify.
Intentional Discipleship by Todd Cox: A Review
Todd Cox spent 19 years leading men's ministry at Long Hollow. A practical discipleship method, plus a warning about the overlapping editions of this book.
