Learning What Your Dad Could Never Teach You - Fathered by God
Learning What Your Dad Could Never Teach You - Fathered by God

Review:This book was great for characterizing the life cycle of a man. It identified the critical components in each season and the types of activities that shape a man's life. It identified critical pitfalls and how a man can acknowledge them, give them to God, and be healed in the midst of his failure and brokenness. It is a great opportunity for men and women to understand God's perspective and heart for men. Read more

Extravagant Personality of Jesus - Experiencing the Playful

Review:I must agree with the other review. Heart changeing indeed. This is no average book, with no average message. Aldredge is able to give a vivid 3D perception on the personality of Jesus. Breaking away from the "norm" - this book will make you experience Jesus like you have never done before. Read more

A Guide Through the Trials Young Men Face - Killing Lions

Review:*I received this complimentary copy from BookLook Bloggers in exchange for my honest review.

This is a must read book for any young man just high-school onward. It is a dialogue of two men in different stages of life trying to ascertain what it is to be a man.

From trials that they face to finding identity as a man, the Eldredges dive into problems that many young men face. As they explore these problems they do so with candor, fears, determination, and humility.

A Map for the Masculine Journey - The Way of the Wild Heart
A Map for the Masculine Journey - The Way of the Wild Heart

Review:I loved Wild At Heart and how he restored masculinity in the church. The goal is not to train our men to be good, nice, coffee-klatsch women. There are parts of being a man that are God-given and shouldn't be set aside.

Now, as a father of two boys, trying to figure out how to be a good dad, this book is revolutionary. I am not the "outdoorsman" that Eldredge is, but we are having significant discussions at our church right now based on this book. I wish more ministers would embrace this ... Read more

Creative Correction
Creative Correction

Review:I actually enjoyed the creative ideas for rewards. Children should learn to EARN. We adults earn our paychecks, and children need to be taught not everything is handed to them forever. She offers great ideas. I do not agree with the Bible as an instrument of discipline. I think this will only encourage children to resent the Bible, a love letter from our savior. Teach principles without a hell-fire and brimstone approach. Read more

You Can't Make Me (But I Can Be Persuaded) - Revised and Updated Edition
You Can't Make Me (But I Can Be Persuaded) - Revised and Updated Edition

Review:I learned so much about myself and other people from this book. It gave great insight to SWCs without adding judgment. I felt like the book was written with so much love. I also bought the audiobook and I love to listen to the narrator read; her voice was pleasant. If you have a child that you feel does not listen then read this book, and then loan it to someone. I am giving it out for Christmas. Read more
