A clarion call for you to boldly live out your faith

Christians today face relentless attacks from an ungodly culture, a formidable spiritual adversary, and our own fallen natures. Yet we cannot afford to surrender to these very real enemies. Because if we do, we fail in our mission to share the hope of Christ with the world.

Just as survivalists use strategies to overcome threatening situations, Courageous explains ten biblical strategies for surviving–and thriving–in a world that is hostile to our faith.

“If you are a follower of Jesus Christ, this is a must-read book!

Thankfully, my friend Dr. Jeffress did–just in time.”– Lt. Col. Oliver North, USMC (Ret.)
