From AudioFile:

In a dramatic and effective reading, a businessman and church leader uses powerful stories to show how men can overcome their hang-ups about their emotional lives. Be honest with yourself, then with God, then with others, he tells us, with words that draw on a deep understanding of human nature and the Bible. Offering a mature overview, the program helps with the challenges men face in getting support from others and ignoring unhealthy models of masculinity. Jakes makes a heartfelt invitation to each listener to be a man who is connected to the real world of other people: "It's time to move, men. It's time to swim with the current of your maleness and discover the secret of who you really are." T.W.
