What would it take to leave the Son of God gobsmacked... in a good way?

You might think the creator of space-time and Lord of All Creation might be difficult to impress.

And He is. At least in the usual ways we try to do it. He’s not that impressed when mere mortals try to flex their wealth, intelligence, influence, looks, or whatever other petty thing we try to impress our peers.

You’ve probably heard the story about the time Jesus shrugged indifferently when Daddy Warbucks dropped his sacks of coins in the offering bucket, but took a step back in amazement when a little old lady in a threadbare shawl dropped a single copper coin.

Lionhearted: Making Young Christian Males Rowdy Biblical Men

Dear young Christian male, this book you’re about to read is meant to challenge you to your very core. Its intent is not to make you feel warm and fuzzy. Some of the chapters will upset you greatly, especially if you’re a dandy who was raised with kid gloves by a helicopter mommy.

That said, in addition to the holy introspection contained herein, this book will also shoot adrenaline into your soul. It’ll push you to be a Godly risk taker and earth shaker. A veritable Rebel With A Cause just like the Captain of Our Salvation, the Lord Jesus Christ.

If you want a feel-good book that tickles your ears and morphs you into a little Christian popinjay, this tome ain’t for you. You should put this book down and walk away from it immediately. However, if, young man, if … your motto is to give God your utmost for His highest, and you wanna live a life worthy of Christ’s death, then this book will be grist for your mill.
