Unleashing Courageous Faith

Paul Coughlin unflinchingly calls men to lay claim to thumos, a source of God-given strength, courage and unsentimental love that‘s already in you. He explores the many facets of thumos, including where you find it, what kills it, what fuels it, its dark side, how to use it for good, and much more.

Coughlin writes: "Most of us will never fight a physical battle against an enemy; we will use our thumos-or not-for moral courage and to create a more muscular, manly form of love: that practical, unsentimental, no-strings-attached, kingly, prophetic, forceful love that lays down its life for another without fanfare-the kind that makes nations weep, faith grow, and God be glorified."

If you’re ready to reach for a higher level of true masculinity, read on. You’ll find practical help and information in the author’s signature style, packed with illustrations from his life and from the lives of admirable men.

“Coughlin courageously confronts ‘Christian’ myths that attempt to transform men into warm, fuzzy, insipid wimps. Here‘s much-needed Christ-centered teaching declaring war on misguided thinking that effectively emasculates men in the name of God. Here‘s life-changing teaching that guides men to conform to Jesus Christ, not religion!”

“I read everything Paul Coughlin writes and I am never disappointed. This book caused me to pause and rethink my faith, my relationships, and my lifestyle. Paul has a way of communicating that makes you laugh, makes you think, and always has incredibly practical value.”

——— Steve Weydert ———

“I have read countless (often useless) Christian books and slogged through years of hyper-spiritualism, legalism, and other emasculating forms of spiritual abuse. But Paul has a gift for cutting through all that nonsense to help liberate men from the stifling aspects of church culture so they are free to become authentic and courageous spiritual leaders we were meant to be.”

“Paul Coughlin writes with eloquence, clarity,
and force on the necessity of courageous virtue in modern life. The church needs voices like Paul‘s to teach its members how to be soldiers for Christ.”

“Delivers a jolt of pure adrenaline! This is not bedtime reading-it is reveille for the Christian man. I loved it!”

You‘re going to love this book! If you‘re a man, it will be revolutionary. It was for me. If you‘re a woman, give it to the men you care about. They will rise up and call you blessed... and you‘ll care about them even more.

“Powerful and provocative, this book is impossible to put down. It immediately grabbed my attention, stirred my soul, and challenged my ideas about men and spirituality. As a female reader, I wanted to get out my pompoms and cheer on the men in my life after reading this book.”

——— Todd Dickerson ———
Regional Director | Fellowship of Christian Athletes

This book is such a refreshing break from the norm. We must engage our God-given thumos to get out of our seats and into the streets. Embrace the full character of Christ and let Him guide you to a new life of courage and impact.”
