No More Christian Nice Guy

Description:
|PIC1|
"Recovering nice guy" Paul Coughlin points the way for all men who yearn to live a life of boldness and conviction--like Jesus. Using humorous examples from his own life, powerful and poignant stories, and vivid examples from contemporary culture, Coughlin shows how he learned to say no to the "nice guy" syndrome. After all, Christian nice guys aren't always so nice. In the name of appearing Christian by being agreeable, they can lie, keep secrets, manipulate, duck responsibility, and much more. Using the biblical model of Christ as his example of a real man, Coughlin shows men how to become both gentle and bold. A powerful challenge and a hopeful message that elevates the true biblical model of manhood above prevailing views in the church and contemporary culture, this important book helps men discover who they are in Christ and how to live for Him. Includes a foreword by Dr. Laura Schlessinger

Reviews:

"Paul Coughlin is challenging our thinking on what it means to be God's man in the 21st Century. The Apostle Paul pens in 1 Corinthians 16:13, act like men." That begs the question, What is a man? Coughlin is asking that question. This book is his excellent answer."--Rev. Emerson Eggerichs Ph.D. author of Love and Respect: the Love She Most Desires and the Respect he Desperately Needs.
