Publisher's summary

Men just get this book. It seems to resonate with them. Men who don't listen to many books listen to this one and want to get it into the hands of others. Why? Because Richard Simmons gets it. He understands and identifies the ultimate issue all men face regardless of age, race, or marital status.

Men very often define who they are by what they have done with their lives or other external things. And when they do that, they unknowingly set a trap for failure in their personal lives.

Gathering support from the writings of noted authors and social commentators, Christian and secular, Simmons emphatically reminds us that every man at some point in life suffers misfortune. No one is exempt. However, the challenges of life offer men the potential for great good. In the midst of these struggles, we have the opportunity to see our lives transformed.

The True Measure of a Man is uplifting, challenging, and most of all it points the way to personal and spiritual growth based on the one, true measure we were meant to use. This study guide serves as a superb resource for men s groups and church ministries. This book will change your life...and, perhaps, the lives of those closest to you.

Every Man Needs to read this book!

This book changed my life! Made me look at my life as who I really am. God wants authentic people. I have had struggles I have tried to deal with mostly on my own and failed. But this book made me look at life and sin and legacy. At a much deeper level. Thank You Lord for your forgiveness and second chances and for helping to see myself as I really am.

Eye opening

This book is amazing. I only wish it were longer. Since it’s not, I would say this is a very easy beginners step for men who want to start looking inward.

Rename this audiobook “Quote, end quote!

I enjoyed the content. This should be re-recoded without all the quotes being read “quote”, “end quote”. Mind numbing and took my attention away by reading every quote and end quote.

Not what I thought!

This book leans more towards spiritually and how believing in Christ will help you be a man
