Ratings and reviews

This is a good book for men of all Christian denominations to partake in. Certain sects of Christians will find it lacking in some areas, such as with regards to confession and communion for our Catholic brothers. But as a Catholic myself, I would not let this discourage you from reading this book. This book still challenged me, in more ways than one, forcing me to confront my shortcomings in my faith and face the reality that God is calling me, and you, to love him more completely. May you and I answer his call with faith, and may this book improve our resolve to face this life buttressed with an unshakeable faith in Christ.

A good book that has helped my walk and others.
