Very few books have been forged through more blood sweat and tears than this powerful piece, aptly entitled DARING. It will inspire you to reach for greatness in your life. This remarkable book is a gift to the men of every nation!
With the explosion of growth in the ministry of the Christian Men's Network, I am humbled to partner with my friend, CMN President and author, Paul Louis Cole. Every time we are together, my life is expanded, energized and encouraged. Paul's message is challenging, but is undercut with encouragement that emboldens the reader to aspire higher, and take life to the next level.
I thank God for placing the thought of the men's movement in the heart of my friend Ed Cole, and for his son Paul, who is carrying the mantle onward. The enormity of his sacrifice personally to sustain the spectacular treasure called "Christian Men's Network" is incalculable. I have seen firsthand the price paid. It has been staggering! To say that Paul is personally a daring man is profound understatement.
To embrace the words of DARING is to be revolutionized! This is a book of transformation and courage, with a fresh, relevant, pertinent message for all men around the world. Paul's dad at age 79 had men in their 20's, 30's and 40's clamoring to be like him. Paul has that same quality to draw men to him, as a "brother," and yet to challenge us all to live as courageous men, the men God designed us to be!

Since pre-release copies were mailed just weeks ago, DARING: A Call to Courageous Manhood by Paul Louis Cole has elicited rare praise from Christian leaders as diverse as Jack Hayford and Jonathan Falwell.
DARING sets the tone for a new wave of masculinity by defining what it is to be a man of courage, endurance and resolve. Cole uses his unique, creative voice to cut through cultural clutter and speak to the issues that lay in the heart of every man.
No newcomer to the men's movement, Cole cofounded the globally-expanding Christian Men's Network with his late father, Edwin Louis Cole. The elder Cole was known as the father of the men's movement.
"We must be these men men who will confront the enemy, face the firestorms of tribulation, be willing to sacrifice for victory, stand against evil, fight for the next generation, and hold nothing back," Cole writes in DARING.
According to Pat Robertson, "Paul Louis Cole has laid bare the secrets every man desires to know, how to be a daring and courageous man."
Jonathan Falwell states, "We are desperate today for Godly men to lead in our churches, our workplace and most certainly, our homes."
Jack Hayford encourages pastors to get the book. He states, "Get a copy for the men of your church, then lead them through it to ignite the renewed flame of practical, purposeful, manly living."
Leading pastors are eager for their men to read DARING, such as Dino Rizzo from Louisiana who said, "Paul has a huge heart to build strong local churches by building strong men!"
Pastor Bob Roberts, Jr, from Texas says, "DARING is, clear, simple, practical, that any man in my church can get their head and hearts around and then be able to act."
Bestselling author Leonard Sweet said, "DARING masterfully bares the yearning heart of God for all sons of Adam, and electrifies the readers heart to beat as loudly and strongly as the lion's heart of the tribe of Judah."
As cofounder and current president of the Christian Mens Network, the global mens movement active in 138 nations connecting over 160,000 leaders, Cole has also positioned CMN as a key leader in building a network of mentors who are training young men in character-building principles across the U.S. and around the world.
