Being a man is hazardous.   
  
When the opportunity comes to learn from someone else's mistake instead of making your own, take it! Men have been struggling with the same problems since biblical times. From well-known men like Adam and Samson to more obscure men like Achan and Elkanah, the Bible is filled with stories of men facing the hazards that men still face today. Hazards of Being a Man tackles twelve hazards all men face and paints a compelling picture of how to live as a better man.   
  
Pastor Jeffrey E. Miller, who based this book on his popular and successful series on Bible.org, gives to field-tested advice on the way out of these common male hazards:  
  
   
Deflecting Responsibility  
Manipulation  
Misplaced Priorities  
Individualism  
Lust  
Insensitivity  
Absence  
Partial Obedience  
Unresolved Anger  
Discontentment  
Unteachability  
Unchecked Motives   
  
With questions for individual study or group discussion, Hazards of Being a Man offers you a way to start living better--as a husband, father, single, colleague, leader, or friend--today.
