Why Men Hate Going to Church
David MurrowPaperback 2011-11-01
Why is it that men are so often disengaged from what goes on in a typical church context? Using eye-opening research, David Murrow reveals why men are the world's largest unreached people group, and calls the church to respond to men's God-given masculine needs and gifts.

Christianity is the only world religion with a chronic shortage of men.

Then, he takes you inside several fast-growing congregations that are winning the hearts of men and boys.
