Synopsis

Want grow in courage? It’s getting harder to be a Christian in our post-Christian culture. As a pastor of 35 years, Andy is seeing the church wake from a “Christian Pax Americana” to an era of intensified hostility. Based on David’s courage before Goliath, The Way to Brave helps readers face the giants looming over us today, such as secularism and relativism. Bent on banishing Christian influence from public life, their power is shocking, their reach expansive, and their deployment quick. But still they are no match for our God. The Way to Brave guides readers through the five ways God prepared David to be intrepid in facing the giant who opposed him. The qualities and experiences David possessed are the ones Christians need today. Pastor Andy McQuitty will walk you through what those are and how they can mark your life, bolstering you for the storms ahead.

From the Back Cover

Becoming a person of godly courage in a sinful world

True heroes—heroes like David and Daniel, Dietrich Bonhoeffer and Corrie Ten Boom—don’t happen by accident. They didn’t will themselves to greatness or make a brave decision in a single moment either. They spent a lifetime pursuing courage in the right way for the right reasons. That’s the way to brave.

The Way to Brave guides you along the pathway to a courageous soul. Andy McQuitty has pastored for 35 years, has learned from his own mistakes and successes, and has studied great heroes like David. He’ll walk you through the five key phases God takes all servant leaders through and teach you how to embrace God’s work in your own life. Prepare yourself now. Then when your Goliath moment comes, you’ll be equipped to stand, fight, and win.
