There is a difference between being a 'male' and being a 'man'. Ed Cole knew this so well he wrote a book about it, and after 30 years and over a million copies sold it still holds water. Many men have found truth in these pages (women, too, can gain much from the book) and it has been the backbone of Cole's ministry, The Christian Men's Network, and positioned him as the father of the Christian men's movement.
Men are multi-faceted, and all parts can come under attack from the enemy. Men can fail in many areas of their life, but as Cole focuses on the five most familiar reasons - lust, idolatry, fornication, tempting Christ (demanding God to do what is contrary to Him), and murmuring (complaining, criticizing, faultfinding, etc.) - he finds almost every man at some level. Refocusing a man's priorities on Christ by clearly delineating what these sins are and what they can do to a man starts the process of maximizing a man's potential and bringing him to full spiritual maturity.
