Unleashing Courageous Faith

Twenty-first-century men are too often frustrated cubicle dwellers while deep in their hearts they dream of Braveheart. The ancient Greeks believed courage - physical, moral and spiritual - was found in the male soul. Called thumos, this type of courage appears in the New Testament, urging men to take action. For many men, thumos is the missing ingredient in their spiritual growth, ready to bless them with power, purpose, and integrity to make them better leaders, disciples, husbands, and fathers. In "Unleashing Courageous Faith" Paul Coughlin is simply a guy with a strong message for other guys, including former "Christian Nice Guys". He unflinchingly looks at both the noble and undesirable aspects of thumos, encouraging men to chose the good and resist the bad. Filled with practical help and information, and written in Coughlin's trademark very readable style, this book is packed with illustrations and examples. It's ideal for men's groups as well as for reading by individuals.
