If you are a man who grew up in a divorced home, primarily raised by your Mom....this is an absolute MUST READ. For 3 decades now I have fought my masculine side...never been comfortable with it. Though my career has had me fighting western wild fires, I'm a gear head, and love the outdoors...I still struggled with this elusive internal battle. Gordon Dalbey opened the curtains within me and I finally have a clear vision of this battle. With the help from this book and a group of men dedicated to embracing masculinity in their own lives I am finding the knowledge and courage to act on that knowledge that was never a part of my life...particularly devoid during my formative years. I so swallowed the "Alan Alda", perfect man theory that I was never going to achieve my fullest potential. IF you are thinking this book teaches men to be pigs...think again. This book opens the path to truth....that men have feelings but are hard wired, by design, to be very different then women. Mom's can't give what they don't have. A single Mom, as great as they are, simply can not give the boy his masculine identity. Better said...a Mom can't UNCOVER the masculinity already buried with him. In my home, my Mom was extremely hurt by my Dads actions...rightfully so. But this hurt turned her into a man-hating woman. And that seriously jacks with a boys view of what men and masculinity is! This book WILL challenge societal views of the past 30-40 years. If you are really struggling with your deepest feelings and internally struggling like I am....this book will shine light on the battle field. Allow you to finally see the fight we are all in. This book has started me on journey that is both frightening and EXCITING all at once!!! And that appeals to my masculine side.Read full review
Addresses men's temptation for sex outside of marriage thru surrendering to God for the courage & desire to overcome the temptation. It can work if one wants to have victory over the temptation, especially if he has the support of others to overcome.
