At the Altar of Sexual Idolatry
by Steve Gallagher
Sexual temptation is undeniably the greatest struggle Christian men face. Here's a book that digs deep and has the answers men are looking for-the kind that actually work. While other books deal with the subject superficially, Sexual Idolatry goes right to the heart. It draws back the curtain and exposes how sexual sin corrupts the entire man, something Steve Gallagher understands, having lived in the bondage of it for over twelve years. Put an end to the mystery of lust and maximize God's power in your life with the proven answers that have helped thousands.
Good to Great
by Jim Collins
Five years ago, Jim Collins asked the question, "Can a good company become a great company and if so, how?" At the heart of those rare and truly great companies was a corporate culture that rigorously found and promoted disciplined people to think and act in a disciplined manner. Peppered with dozens of stories and examples from the great and not so great, the book offers a well-reasoned road map to excellence that any organization would do well to consider. Like Built to Last, Good to Great is one of those books that managers and CEOs will be reading and rereading for years to come.
The Hazards of Being a Man: Overcoming 12 Challenges All Men Face

Grounded in Scripture, Miller uses examples of men from the Old Testament providing practical advice on how to improve behavior in each. He has a great ability to take an ancient story and bring it into the factory or office today.
Jesus Mean and Wild
by Mark Galli
The Unexpected Love of an Untamable God. "The warm and friendly Jesus, although an attractive idea, is but an idol," Galli says. He uses 17 passages in the Gospel of Mark to present a Jesus who is much less loving, gentle and patient than many Christians would like to believe. This Jesus can be stern, confrontational, purposefully confusing and even impatient. He sometimes shames and scares us, but loves us enough to draw us inexorably toward him.

No More Christian Nice Guy
By Paul Coughlin
Paul Coughlin identifies a cancer that's growing in our churches today: an epidemic of passive, sweet nice guys who are failing to lead their churches, their families and their communities. Men, if you've ever wondered why there wasn't more to the Christian life than what you've experienced, read this book.
This book joyfully ties, and then tightens, the knot between God and humankind.
Sex God
by Rob Bell
Sex God is the story of God becoming human, of humans mirroring God and love made manifest in the chaos of our humanity, of relationships revealed in a way that elevates the human condition and offers hope to those whose relationships are wounded. In Bell's spare, somewhat oblique style, he addresses lust, respect, denial, risk, acceptance and more. His love for God and the Bible is clear, as is his ability to ask probing questions and offer answers that make readers think deeply about their own lives. He does a fine job using the Bible and real life to show that our physical relationships are really about spiritual relationships.
