Although this book shared several Biblical references, it's not religious or leaves you feeling like this is something you can just get from church. As someone who's very non-religious, I really appreciate the authors perspective because it was based on things anyone can relate to and not just religious people or church goers.
The way he included relevant stories and movies that men love, to make specific points, allows you to learn in a way that's more inviting than from a place of condemning you as a man, because you didn't know something. It's a lot of pressure being a man and there are so many things we're supposed to know but don't and often we are not given the grace to not know because of outside expectations....
All in all, I highly recommend this book, especially if you're just starting out, don't have a wife or family yet, and want to do things the right way and be the best you can be, for those you desire to lead!
This book is different!

Great book for Men and Women. It’s a great book of correction, inspiration, truth and redemption to resurrect the modern man to be the man that our Creator wills for us to be! Our families, our communities, our schools, our churches, our judicial systems and the whole world needs the Man who the LORD made to have dominion in the earth the right way!
