How Not to Be an *ss

Essays on Becoming a Good & Safe Man

De: Andrew J. Bauman

Narrado por: Adam Naranjo

I am a recovering ass.

Of course, at times I still am one, but it's less often. I now recognize my “assness” more quickly, recalibrate, and take action to make amends for my poor behavior. It's important to acknowledge the truth of our mistakes without turning toward self-contempt, shame, or beating ourselves up for the harm we have caused to those we love. Yet, we must take full responsibility for our poor behavior and fully own what we have done and learn to live differently, becoming men who bring life rather than further heartache.

This audiobook is just as much for me as it is for you. I am in the process of learning to become a good and safe man, and writing out these truths in this book has helped me immensely. I hope it will help you on your journey to becoming the man you most desire to be.

Excellent and very important book

This is an excellent and very important book to break toxic cycles for both men and women. I do hope that many will read it with an open mind and willingness to reflect deeply and be honest with themselves in order to bring about change and growth.

Good

It would have been a bit better if the author was one that struggled with the issues in the book. I struggle hard and at times don't even realize I'm being a verbally abusive Jerk. Nor do I want to be one!

Accurate descriptions of abusive behavior, language and attitudes that are used in subtle ways to manipulate and coerce others.

Great book quick and easy read with mountains of relevant information that can be easily applied to guide recovery

How honest it was and eye opening. I needed to hear. Thank you Jesus for your grace and mercy ❤️❤️

So grateful for listening to this audio book. I am committed to redemption and forgiveness! To glorify the Lord with my story. And to give my wife a safe place and home. And love her like Christ loves me.

Men, your wife brings you this book, and you scoff at it. But, read it…and if you get offended by the words, look deeper into why that is. I’ve fallen short time and time again, and this book is written by someone that overcame the issues we are dealing with. This gives me hope. Knowing this, we know that he’s been there, and can relate, but also speak out for the women who’s voices aren’t being heard loud enough. I encourage you to give it a chance. A very informative and necessary book for a step in the right direction.
