This is an updated reprint of 'Men Who Win'. I did not realize the focus of this book would be reaching business professional men who are sports fanatics. The overall premise of the book was solid, I was just put off by SO MANY sports analogies that I ended up 'skimming' more than reading.
Steven J Lawson is one of my favorite Expositors. He always inspires me about discipline, and this book won't disappoint. It didn't go into all the details of spiritual disciplines and sanctification, but it still inspires. I highly recommend.
