When I arrived in Hamilton I saw this book on my friend Bruach’s shelf behind the bar in his bar. It took me a couple of days to churn through it and I have to say it was pretty good. I’m usually pretty harsh on Christian books, mostly I find I’m just reading a lot of lightweight crap that could have been said in a few pages rather than 200. Thank God, this wasn’t like that at all. It was great to have a Christian book aimed at blokes, that didn’t take itself too seriously and that was really honest. It addresses the usual suspects that guys need to think about and does a pretty good job of it, but I was really impressed that they branched out into subjects like dealing with disabilities (specifically autism), living missionally and even the place of Christian comedy. It’s not the heaviest book you’re going to come across but for guys who want to follow Jesus it’s a really good read.
