Why Men Hate Going To Church

Why is it that men typically stay away from Churches? At least this is the norm for most Churches in the western world. This is a great book that talks about the issues surrounding why men tend to stay away from Church and what can we do to change that.

A provocative and good read. This is an essential read to help Church leaders learn about what they need to do to overcome the lack of men in their congregations. You may or may not agree with all of the author's points and your particular context may be different than some of th examples given in the book, but the reality of men not being engaged is very true.

I highly recommend this book, it encouraged us as we were learning about how to engage the men in our Church and out community.
