Rough Cut Men: A Man's Battle Guide to Building Real Relationships with Each Other, and with Jesus

The purpose of Rough Cut Men is to get men to engage with one another in an authentic and transparent way. Through the use of major motion picture clips, including movies like Saving Private Ryan and Armageddon, men who read this book come away realizing they are not the only ones going through challenges. Using a strategic balance of Hollywood action movies, relevant current events, Biblical truth and his own personal testimony, the author equips men to deal with their challenges. He encourages them to "walk through life" with each other just like "David" and "Jonathan."

David Dusek’s mission is to encourage and equip men to live their lives for Christ. He utilizes his life experiences – including his upbringing in a non-Christian home, coming to Christ as an adult, and an extensive business background – to reach men in a way that they can understand. David's vision is to engage all men where they are the "other six days of the week"---not just in church.

David is the founder of Rough Cut Men Ministries, which is primarily a live, interactive men’s experience using a strategic combination of action movie sequences, real world current events, Biblical truth and squad sized discussion times with a single, laser focused objective: To get men talking about what’s really going on in their lives. David travels around the country, and the world, using the Rough Cut Men Movie Experience to get men to be transparent with one another and with Jesus. He has spoken to thousands of men around the world, engaging them with other men in a David and Jonathan model of friendship.

The Rough Cut Men Movie Experience has been presented at the United States Naval Academy, the United States Military Academy at West Point, to the teams at Joe Gibbs Racing, and at multiple Army installations in the US, Germany and Korea. David also works closely with Teen Challenge International Men's Centers coast to coast, assisting in the recovery of men who have fallen prey to drug addiction.

The Rough Cut Men Movie Experience has been introduced to virtually every major Christian denomination in America, and has been a part of over 1000 men's gatherings and retreats since 2007. He has been a guest minister on Sunday mornings at churches across the country, and is a frequent writer for denominational men's magazines, online publications and is the author of both “Rough Cut Men: A Man’s Battle Guide To Building Relationships with Each Other, And With Jesus”.
