The Map: The Way of All Great Men

The Map is a book by David Murrow, a follow up to a book he wrote a few years ago entitled Why Men Hate Going to Church. The Map pulls the reader in with a thrilling novel which takes the reader to a monastery to learn the truth behind the map found within the Gospel of Matthew. He brings up a very interesting idea of how men ought to live their lives, going back and forth between the concept of submission, strength and finally sacrifice. His book is a very fast read, with the novel really bringing the reader into the book. The second half of the book focuses on ways to live this out. The font is easy to read and the book is very durable. Overall, the book is very informational and is a great follow up to David Murrow's previous book, Why Men Hate Going To Church.
The book brings up many valid points regarding masculinity, femininity and the idea of sacrifice. Many men could gain a lot of insight and understanding through this book. The book is very good.
