Summary
Less than 40 percent of adults in most churches are men, and 20 to 25 percent of married churchgoing women attend without their husbands. And why are the men who do go to church so bored? Why won't they let God change their hearts?
David Murrow's groundbreaking new book reveals why men are the world's largest unreached people group. With eye-opening research and a persuasive grasp on the facts, Murrow explains the problem and offers hope and encouragement to women, pastors, and men. Why Men Hate Going to Church does not call men back to the church - it calls the church back to men.

A book every Christian man and woman should read and accept.
Excellent book with a very good synopsis of why men don't go to church. As a manly man reading this it has given me insight as to why I struggle with church and have done for the past 35 years. David Murrow reveals masculine traits that even we men don't see but can instantly agree with. As he says it's not what men should be its what men are.
Men, read this book then seek out others to follow Jesus with.
Church leaders, read and digest this book. Act upon it and hey presto men will come back to church. Lose the nonsense that the church has become and look to the Bible as a church model.
Women, we are different, I am totally for women in leadership and having important roles but this book does speak truth even though it may be hard to accept. The book has the intention to get men back in church following Jesus. You man, your future husband, your brothers, your dad.
Only downside is it's a bit too American for British readers but worth the read!!

This is an eye opener
OK. I start by saying, I lead a church in the UK.
This is a very interesting read/listen. There are a few cultural differences as you would expect between a man living in Alaska and a man living in East Sussex, (Not too much bear hunting goes on in these parts), but this should not get in the way of the overall message.
David Murrow carefully and skillfully handles a broad range of sociological data sets and eloquently explains the conclusions he draws from it all. This is not a book that attacks the church, nor women in church, but it carefully explains what church has become and why it appeals to a predominately female audience. Murrow identifies the real difficulty of achieving a balance of genders across the congregation and offers some frequently uncomfortable solutions.
If you are a church leader, listen to this book and suppress the instinct to be defensive, or perhaps that is just me. If you are normally in the congregation, ask your leader if they have read it and if not gift it to them. :o)

Memorable way of communicating insights new to me
I found myself nodding to statements regarding issues I hadn't thought of before. I now want other people I know to read/listen to it, urgently

Great Book which diagnoses the men and the church
Should be recommended reading for all ministers and lay people. The Church needs strong men.

Amazing
Totally brilliant book. I am not a Christian but these words apply to most spiritual organisations in the west. My favourite book of 2021. Now that says something.
