Historia
As one of the foremost evangelical thinkers of the 20th century, Francis Schaeffer long pondered the fate of declining Western culture. In this brilliant book, he analyzed the reasons for modern society's state of affairs and presented the only viable alternative: living by the Christian ethic, acceptance of God's revelation, and total affirmation of the Bible's morals, values, and meaning.

Historia
In this explosive book, Francis Schaeffer shows why morality and freedom have crumbled in our society. He calls for a massive movement - in government, law, and all of life - to reestablish our Judeo-Christian foundation and turn the tide of moral decadence and loss of freedom. A Christian Manifesto is literally a call for Christians to change the course of history - by returning to biblical Truth and by allowing Christ to be Lord in all of life.

Thank you, Dr. Schaeffer, for articulating scripture in in very real terms for the saints of today.

Historia
C. S. Lewis's dazzling allegory about Heaven and Hell - and the chasm fixed between them - is one of his most brilliantly imaginative tales, where we discover that the gates of Hell are locked from the inside. In a dream, the narrator boards a bus on a drizzly afternoon in Hell and embarks on an incredible voyage to Heaven. Anyone in Hell is invited on board, and anyone may remain in Heaven if he or she so chooses. But do we really want to live in Heaven?

Revisado: 02-07-24
I keep trying to like C.S. Lewis but with the exception of The Screwtape Letters and Screwtape Gives A Toast I have been unsuccessful.
I won’t take the time to describe my concerns because I believe my dissatisfaction is due to my own preferences. I’m writing this in case there are others who feel similarly, but don’t know why.

Historia
In The Collapse of Parenting, Leonard Sax, an acclaimed expert on parenting and childhood development, identifies a key problem plaguing American children, especially relative to other countries: the dramatic decline in young people's achievement and psychological health. The root of this problem, Sax contends, lies in the transfer of authority from parents to their children, a shift that has been occurring over the last 50 years and is now impossible to ignore.

A timely book for this anti-intellectual age of emotionalism and elitism. A wonderful call for the return to what used to be called “common sense”.

Historia
Drawing from his own experience and the lives of others, Pastor Brian Tome calls on men to examine themselves and take steps in the direction of a fully realized manhood that honors God, respects women, elevates others, and works purposefully for an end greater than their own satisfaction or pleasure. It's time for men to step into their honorable place in the world and lean into a new reality - one defined by strength, purpose, and honor.

Hard to Listen . . .
Revisado: 06-27-22
I’ve been preparing a seminar for the rediscovering of manhood, in a masculine-hating culture, and saw this title. This book was the very epitome of that which I am attempting to overcome. The narration was immature, with little depth of understanding of manhood. Mr. Tome does not have a calm voice of assurance that makes one think he is an experienced practitioner of manhood, but rather a young, hip academic perpetuating the existing cultural maladies that are weakening true manhood. He was very hard for me to listen to. Though occasionally some good points were made, I found myself unable to listen for another 2 hours. I wanted to enjoy this book, but it just wasn’t for me.

Historia
The average Christian in America does not know what his own religion teaches, nor does he care. He may call himself “Christian”, but he lives his life exactly as he wishes, making no attempt to conform his conduct to the commands and tenets of his religion. Daily Wire writer Matt Walsh confronts his fellow Christians in this bold, clear-eyed book that serves as an urgent reminder of Matthew 7:13 - "For wide is the gate and broad is the road that leads to destruction, and many enter through it."

Good Book
Revisado: 01-05-22
Matt does a great job identifying the areas where many professing Christians remain, unknowingly, in the dark. This is a very honest look at what Christianity has become and Matt knows that he will be criticized vociferously for saying so. That’s courageous.
I agree with almost all of his premises, but disagree with many of his conclusions. I suspect from the language of the book that Matt does not have a reformed theology, yet, but remains in an Arminian mind set. He says that he wearied himself in the world so he sought after God. He writes that God sets 2 doors before you and you must choose salvation or hell.
This Arminian mind set has led him to disagree with scripture in a few areas. With that said, it isn’t his conclusions that make for a good read, for you can draw your own from the oodles of information he has provided, but his courageous stand against what he characterizes as cowardice in the church. We very well may be suffering from a dearth of courage, especially among the men in the pews, and in the churches leadership, but there is one man who has not sat Idly folding his hands.
I knew of Matt as a social commentator, and now I know him as a man of God who challenges other men not to participate in a Church of Cowards.

Historia
David Murrow's groundbreaking new book reveals why men are the world's largest unreached people group. With eye-opening research and a persuasive grasp on the facts, Murrow explains the problem and offers hope and encouragement to women, pastors, and men. Why Men Hate Going to Church does not call men back to the church - it calls the church back to men.

Great start, but unable to sustain objectivity
Revisado: 12-23-21
I was truly pleased by the research, and balance of the book through the first half of the book. It offered contrary points of explication for the observations it made and left me to draw my own conclusions. Well done.
Then the last half became a one dimensional, man focused diatribe without almost any regard for scripture to be found.
This book is well worth the read, but only if you are capable of not being led by the nose, away from the scriptures, because of the constant name drops of popular (yet mediocre) preachers and authors.
Whenever you’re told what you must do to bring men back to the church, ask two questions:
First, is this the God ordained purpose for men in the church? Second, what is the Biblical precept, principle, or picture for the recommendation being made?
Thought provoking for sure, but don’t ignore scriptural discernment.
