If you are a follower of Jesus Christ, this is a must-read book! Though I have taught survival skills to Marines, Boy Scouts, my four kids, and now eighteen grandkids, it never occurred to me to apply these skills to living as a Christian in todays hostile environment. Thankfully, my friend Dr. Jeffress didjust in time.
Lt. Col. Oliver North, USMC (Ret.)
Its one thing to say we have faith and another thing entirely to know how to live out that faith! In Courageous , my friend Robert Jeffress beautifully helps us understand how to put our faith into real action in our liveswhich is of course the whole point!
Eric Metaxas, author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Bonhoeffer: Pastor, Martyr, Prophet, Spy and host of the Eric Metaxas Show
With all the uncertainty in our world right now, this new book by my friend Robert Jeffress is a welcome encouragement for believers. His Bible-based tips on thriving during challenging times are not only practical and easy to understand but will help you to stand strong in your faith and live victoriously.
Robert Morris, founding lead senior pastor of Gateway Church and bestselling author of The Blessed Life , Frequency , and Beyond Blessed
When it comes to living out biblical principles, we quickly discover were in an unfriendly culture. Ephesians 5:11 tells us to Have nothing to do with the fruitless deeds of darkness, so how then do we build bridges to skeptics and cynics? How do we win wicked people with antagonistic agendas to the side of our Savior? In his remarkable new book, Courageous: 10 Strategies for Thriving in a Hostile World , Dr. Jeffress shows us page-by-page how to live as winsome and effective ambassadors for Jesus Christ, all so that the perishing will come to salvation and God will receive the glory! I give this book a double thumbs-up!
Joni Eareckson Tada, Joni and Friends International Disability Center
No book title ever fit its authors personality better than this one. One of the words I often use to describe Robert Jeffress is courageous . As a former pastor of First Baptist in Dallas, I have been privileged to watch time and again his courageous yet loving leadership in daily action. This book is not some self-help treatise. These principles have been beaten out on the anvil of the authors own personal and practical experience. Read it... and reap!
O. S. Hawkins, author of the bestselling Code series of Christian devotionals
My friend Robert Jeffress has demonstrated courage time and again by boldly preaching Gods Word in the pulpit and answering tough critics in the media. In these pages, he outlines practical survival strategies that will help us courageously navigate the storms of life. Through powerful biblical examples and present-day testimonies, Robert reminds us that the wisdom and supernatural ability God has provided us as believers is more than enough to defeat the enemys strategy.

Occasionally people will ask me how I manage to be involved in so many different avenues of ministry. The simple answer is that it would be impossible if it were not for the tremendously gifted and dedicated team Ive been blessed to work with. That team includes...
Brian Vos, Mark Rice, Brianna DeWitt, Lindsey Spoolstra, and the entire Baker Books team, who are the best publishing partner Ive ever worked with.
Derrick G. Jeter, our creative director at Pathway to Victory, and Jennifer Stair, who were instrumental in crafting the message of this book.
Sealy Yates, my literary agent and friend for more than two decades, who always provides encouragement and wise counsel.
Carrilyn Baker, my extraordinary executive associate for nearly two decades, who provides limitless efforts in overseeing all of the complicated work of our officeand always does so with a wonderful attitude. And thank you, Mary Shafer, for assisting Carrilyn and me in innumerable waysyou are a joy to work with!
Ben Lovvorn, the executive pastor of First Baptist Church, Dallas, and Nate Curtis, Patrick Heatherington, Ben Bugg, and the entire Pathway to Victory team, who extend the message of this book to millions of people throughout the world.
Im eternally grateful for the support I receive every day from my family. God has blessed me with two wonderful daughters, Julia and Dorothy, a great son-in-law, Ryan Sadler, and my extraordinary triplet grandchildren, Barrett, Blake, and Blair.
But at the very top of the list of those people in my life for whom I am most grateful is my wife of forty-two years, Amy. Thank you for your unconditional love. You are the greatest evidence to me of Gods goodness and grace.
A Survival Guide for Christians
As a pastor, author, and news contributor, I travel a lot. My travels have taken me around the worldincluding the former Soviet Union, Europe, the Middle East, and all over North America. During the millions of air miles Ive logged, Ive encountered my share of turbulence and bad weather, and Ive sat in aircraft that looked less sturdy than the rubber bandpowered balsa wood planes I used to build as a kid. But never once, in all my years of flying, have I truly worried that I might not survive a flight and make it back in one piece.
