Not surprising its being recomended by President Bush!,
By Andi C (London United Kingdom) - See all my reviews
This review is from: Understanding the Purpose and Power of Men (Paperback)
Its really refreshing when someone offers practical solutions to a longstanding problem, Stupid Men. Some might find it like 'salt in the wound' while others like eye-drops. Dr. Munroe tackles the everchanging moods of society towards men over the years and why just taking an experimental approach to life and/or women is just not acceptable. This level headed analysis comes at just at the right time, it certainly crosses cultural and ethical barries quite easily - its not just for American men you'll be glad to know. President Bush has been very concerned about the makeup of the American Man's Mind, so much that he organised a committee to look at various issues, like behaviour in the worplace or criminal violence in the home, this book being chosen as one of the tools that they will use to re-educate men in prisons and counceling services. Although not the ultimate work on behavioral issues, its an empowering way into the basic areas men are faced with daily. It certainly comes from a Christian perspective, but don't let that put you off, it basically means that the view of the writer is that everything that exists has been created for a purpose in mind, just as every manufacturer has a particular environment within which their product works best. Dr Munroe proposes that men excell in what they do when their environment reflect certain qualities like protecting, supporting and bringing out the best in others, for example. You'll have to read it for yourself to find out more. Remember, the fool learns from his mistakes but the wise learns from the mistakes of others. Its time for men to wise up!

'Help' I Need To Understand Men,
By Patricia Howell "reflective" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Understanding the Purpose and Power of Men (Paperback)
I have always had a fascination with understanding people particularly men, maybe this stems from the fact that I was very close to my father (now deceased) and brother when I was younger. What affected them had a direct knock on effect on me and the rest of the family. As I grew older and entered my first relationship I started to recognise a pattern of self destruction in men and I needed to know why.
There many years ago began my quest for knowledge and understanding; I believe that God is using Dr Myles Munroe in an `awesome' way. My first introduction to him was when he visited the ministry in England, that I was a part of and spoke on the Primary Purpose of Man, this seminar explained the disconnection of man/woman to God and the consequences of that disconnection, giving clear illustrations, for example complicated technology that is used without first reading the instruction can appear to malfunction when in fact nothing is wrong with the machinery it is just not being used correctly and to its full capacity, he likens this to man/woman not knowing God and so continuously trying to find him/herself. Dr Munroe explains that no matter how successful they become there is an emptiness something is missing, something that no matter how hard they try they cannot find as they are looking in the wrong area. This book explores the male in depth from a different angle; it looks at what it means to be a man with and without God, and delves into their innate drive to find fulfilment and purpose and examines what happens when purpose is not found. In this book is the answer to many questions that the world is asking such as what is happening in society today? Why are brothers killing brothers? Why are men taking something so precious from women (their bodies) irrespective of their age but give nothing in return it also explains why women let them. Why is recreational and illegal drug use on the increase? Why are people fearful to walk the streets at night indeed why are the older people in society not treated with respect? Why has the family structure broken down? Why is society as we know it, in chaos? I know that there are a lot of why's at the end of this review but I make no apologies for that as the answers are in this book. On a final note God ordained men to be leaders whether they believe in Him or not, and whatever they lead on they will do to the best of their ability and it doesn't matter if what they are doing is good or bad, they will still do it to the best of their ability for example their bad will be really bad and their good will be really good. The thing with being a leader is that leaders set examples for others to follow, (what you do your children will do) When you thought he wasn't looking, he learned most of life's lessons that he needed to know from you. This is a must read book for men and women, it is clear and concise, Dr Monroe writes with such simplicity that even a child could read it and get understanding, in fact I recommend that you get your children to read it so that they are clued up and don't repeat previous generations mistakes. I will definitely be reading Understanding the Purpose and Power of Woman. 5 of 5 people found the following review helpful:

You leave with complete Understanding,,
By Frank Chase Jr. "Dr. Frank Chase Jr" - Published on Amazon.com
This review is from: Understanding the Purpose and Power of Men (Paperback)
The power to define is the power to determine destiny. If you want understanding of your masculinity and your purpose as a man then Dr. Myles Monroe's book is for you. I found the book to be an indeph look into the masculine soul. It is a book that women will never forget and a book that men will never feel alone again. If you want God's purpose for your life as a man, then this book is a powerful tool for men who want to find their way off the False Roads To Manhood which is a book out that helps men too.
