Guys might hate asking for directions, but they certainly won't resist the guidance found in The Last Men's Book You'll Ever Need . Author David Moore combines his Bible scholar background with a humorous Dave Barry-esque style of writing that makes sensitive subjects like sexual temptation, love of money, busy-ness, and "the shrinking American soul" much easier to ponder and improve upon. And the seemingly playful title is actually based on a strong thread of sincerity. Moore is concerned about the overabundance of spiritual "how-to" books that fail to put enough emphasis on the sufficiency of the Bible. "One very clear tactic of the Enemy is trying to get us away from the simplicity and purity of devotion to Christ," he says. Put first things first with The Last Men's Book You'll Ever Need .
David Moore's tongue-in-cheek title is the perfect approach to sharing personal stories and insights to common challenges in life. In fact, the application of personal stories and insights is the key to any book like this (popular, as apposed to academic), that tackles deeper understanding of Biblical teachings. David does this in an entertaining and succinct manner that is easy and quick to read. I definitely recommend this book to young or old, men or women, who thirst for more stories and insights about how to live their lives more Godly.
Worth the read for women as well as men

This is a "get to the point" book. Actually, it is not SO manly that a woman wouldn't benefit from reading it. I (being a woman)actually didn't skip any chapter (or page, for that matter). The book was worth my time; I looked forward to each chapter. In addition, I look forward to reading many of the titles mentioned in the notes at the end of each chapter. This book could actually serve as a resource for delving into other books (current and classics). For that reason, the book appeals to the casual reader as well as readers who desire a deeper look.

There's a great deal of depth to this humorous read. It has been said "we'll be the same 5 years from today as today except for what we watch and listen, with whom we associate, and the books we read." Moore has written a book that will make a great influence in the next five years and beyond for those who read it. Thank you for the real stuff.
Great Men's Book!
