The Resolution for Men is the inspiring book born out of Courageous, a new film by the makers of Fireproof coming to theaters nationwide in fall 2011. The movie, which presents a powerful story of strong male leadership, is an emotionally charged wake-up call to fathers whose influence upon their children and society is immeasurable. The Resolution for Men follows to challenge men of all ages to become as bold and intentional about embracing their responsibilities as leaders of their homes, marriages, and children.
Written by Stephen and Alex Kendrick, screenwriters of Courageous and authors of New York Times No. 1 best seller The Love Dare (five million copies sold), The Resolution for Men strategically inspires men to reconcile with their past, re-engage in the present by taking full responsibility for their wives and children, and then move forward with a bold and clear resolution for the future. Written in partnership with the movie and Priscilla Shirer's new book, The Resolution for Women, it is designed to inspire a revolution.

"Easily the best book that I have read this year. It was not only practical and biblical in its teachings, but it was very challenging as well. Some parts of this book had me in tears because it really hit home in a personal place. I definitely recommend this book for ALL men. Men who are single, men who are saved, men who are unsaved, men who are husbands, men who are dads, etc. Check it out!!"

— Jim, 5/16/2012" Read this! See the movie "Courageous" first, and then read this. Do it slowly. Do it deliberately. Learn from it. Re-read paragraphs when they don't make sense the first time because you were plowing through it. Learn it. Live it. Be changed by it. "
— Greg, 3/18/2012" This book will get you to evaluate where you are as a father and as a man. What does the Bible teach us about being a father, about being the spiritual leader of our family. "
