Hero: Becoming the Man She Desires

Paperback |English |1400071097 | 9781400071098
Overview
You already know it's not easy being a single man in this culture today. But it is easy to be overwhelmed, to feel helpless and hopeless about living by God's high standards for singles. It's easy to cave in to the pressures of this sex-soaked world and accept defeat-blaming the media, the culture, even girlfriends who don't know how tough it can be. But many men have read books like Every Young Man's Battle and Tactics and have committed themselves to stand strong and pure in the power of God, and to go on the offensive against the onslaught of negative stereotypes. Some have suffered. Some have fallen. But many have experienced victory-and you can be among them. What makes those committed men so desirable to women? Be Her Hero is their motto. From best-selling author Fred Stoeker, along with his son Jasen, come the straightforward insight and real-life examples you're looking for to help you take personal purity to its logical conclusion. Here's straight truth with irrefutable evidence of what makes an ultimate hero to women who long for men of faith-men who stand by their convictions and make their world a safer and better place. Are you ready to accept the challenge?

Editorial Reviews


"Will the real men please stand up? These two brothers of mine, father and son, are standing up in purity, courage, and God-honoring strength. I am proud to know them! Read their story and be encouraged by encountering these modern-day heroes."

-
Rebecca St. James, singer, songwriter, musician
"This story is real. Fred and Jasen are indeed heroes in our time. And through God's grace, you can be too!"

-
Dr. Gary Rosberg, founder and CEO, America's Family Coaches, author of Secrets to a Lasting Love, and co-founder with wife, Barb, of TheGreatMarriageExperience.com
"
Hero is my favorite of Fred's books by far. Its keen biblical insights and practical applications are exactly what we need today. I can't stop going through it again and again! I have read many books on dating, but
Hero easily tops them all. I urge you to read
Hero.
This book is that good. Fred and Jasen, thanks for being the kind of men many of us want to be."

-
Heath Adamson, youth evangelist, The Seven Project
"
Hero is not just another book about dating or purity. As I finished
Hero, I came to the realization that this book is truly a message from God's heart to ours. I couldn't put it down. I was deeply challenged and inspired by Jasen's words, but most of all, I felt hopeful. As you read this book
, I know you'll be changed forever."

-
Michael O'Brien, former lead singer of Newsong
"God has sounded the battle cry for the hearts of men. Do you hear it? Will you experience the powerful thrill of what it means to be a real man? She needs a hero. Let Fred and Jasen challenge you to become the hero she needs you to be."

-
Matt Markins, director of the D6 Conference
"In a culture nearly devoid of genuine heroes, I've had the honor to witness a few. Fred and Jason Stoeker are such men. Every man on planet Earth needs to read and apply the biblical lessons in this book."

-
Clay Allen, pastor, president, and founder of AVENUE Resource and author of Operation Destiny



"Inspiring. Captivating. Thoroughly biblical. Fred and Jasen Stoeker cry out to the men and women of our generation and challenge them to joy-filled holiness.
Hero invites us into the God-centered romance I long to see play out again and again."

-
Paul Sabino, family pastor, Cornerstone Church, Ames, Iowa
"I love
Hero! As I began reading this thought-provoking book, tears filled my eyes and hope captured my soul.
Hero delivers some jarring 'reality' reading, living proof that whatever the enemy means for harm, God uses for good. Anyone reading these pages will be thoroughly challenged to become a true hero."

-
James A. Montera, president of Mercy Seat Ministries Midwest, Inc. and founder of Refuge School of Ministry
