The Accountable Man - a book for the comman man

"The Accountable Man by Tom Eisenman surprised me by being rather relaxed in how it addresses accountability between Christian men. Instead of being overly stern it takes a more relational tone that I think would encourage men to build accountability into their relationships instead of avoiding accountability. One thing I wish Mr. Eisenman had addressed is wounds in a man's life, which can affect his willingness to trust other men. As a whole I do recommend this book!
