I really enjoyed the content of Point Man by Steve Farrar. I belong to a small group of leaders that read a book a month to further our leadership. Point Man has been one of my favorites so far. Any man that has a wife, want a wife, have kids or want kids, needs to read this book or listen to the audio discs like I did. I am also in full time ministry as a youth pastor, which anyone knows who is in the ministry, you don't have a whole lot of time. I have to spent most of my reading time in the Word of God, so I gets a little complicated having to read a whole book every month. The CDs helped so much and the narration was very professional and great to listen to.

Dr. Steve Ferrar has a gift that I have never seen any man have before. He can tell us men what makes us tick and why we do things in a way that makes it so easy to understand. This guy is the real deal and he has had his own struggles. That says to me that he has credibility and can relate to the things that I am facing.
If you ever get a chance to hear Steve speak, make sure you don't miss it. He speaks frequently in Frisco, Texas, not far from Dallas.

Point Man is a must read for ALL men. It is timeless and to the point. It is a book on not just being a leader, but being a leader of the family. We need to have more men be accountable for their actions. This book will lead you in your roles as a husband and father. It will help you understand just how important you are to the family. Real men read this book.

From the beginning, the book has a mean spirited undertone with heavy doses of misogyny and homophobia. Some of the child rearing advice given is misguided and perhaps dangerous. For example, a fullly detailed explanantion of sex is recommended for children at the age of six. This advice isn't supported and runs contrary to expert opinion. Other guidance seems misplaced. For example, the heavy emphasis on the evils of pornography and how to avoid it is probably more appropriate for a book aimed at men with addiction in that area. I don't disagree with everything in the book, but the bits of "good" advice are prosaic in nature - read the bible and live accordingly. I think this is common sense to any Christian father. I wouldn't recommend this book to anyone.

This is scary bad. Our small group-study at church is going through this, and it's making me sick. The men's-group is rallying around this like it's a miracle answer to all of their family issues, but it's just smoke. The author is NOT teaching relationship skills, but just rules for a plutocratic relationship. There's so much more to being a family leader then just having testicles and a bible.
