I have been blessed to have Pastor Mike as our pastor for the past 4-5 years. He has consistently preached the Bible in a clear, convicting but not condemning, straight forward, logical manner.

I feel this book is not intended for the non-believer, but to bolster the believer, to act and speak in a Christ-like manner in a world that has traded good for evil and evil as good.

We will not win everyone for Christ but we can act in a meaningful way to win the undecided and turn the country around, one Christian at a time.

This is OUR time to stand up and speak out. Pastor Mike shares his personal experiences, clear relevant Scripture and many How to... resources to save our country and our world.

If you like the passion of Billy Graham, the down-home common sense of Dr. Charles Stanley and the clearly written, relevant style of Mac Lucado, I promise you will love this book!

Clear, forceful, and gracious. A welcome break from the usual hysteria about how all of our problems are someone else's fault. The author presents a compelling argument for how the solution begins with each of us - Making it our business to know what's going on, thoroughly integrating our faith into our social communities and the political process, and doing so with an undeniable love for people. Highly recommended.

I believe that God used Michael Anthony to write this book, "A Call for Courage: Living with Power, Truth, and Love in an Age of Intolerance and Fear" to hit so many nails on their heads that it built a house! I think this book could apply to any era of time, but especially such as the one as we are living in right now, where the need for change in America (and in our world, really) is at a critical level. It's not just change in legislation and politics that is needed; a unified spiritual movement (lead by the Holy Spirit of God) needs wash through our whole nation from coast to coast. There are so many truths delivered in this book - truths that every single person needs to soak in - that it should be read over and over again until it flows through our actions. Of course, I believe that the best book that has ever been written is the Bible; the second runner-up (in my opinion) is "A Call for Courage." It is educational, refreshing and encouraging and you'll definitely want to grab a copy of this and read it as soon as possible! It will drive in the need for Christians to humbly and courageously rise and speak up in love. Thanks be to the Lord and our God Jesus Christ to lead Michael to write this book - it has definitely already made an impact on me personally.

I received an Advanced Reader Copy from Harper Collins Christian Publishers.

This book is the best book that I have ever read! It is a how to guide for Christians who are wondering how to respond to what is going on in our country. It is a must read for all Christians!

Pastor Anthony's first book--A Call for Courage--is an answer to my prayers! For many years, as an Elder and teacher, I've called on Christian men and women to get engaged in this fallen world. We have discussed and prayed on how to best navigate our way through it. While we know this is our temporary home, we cannot allow the advancement of secular-progressivism to steal away the souls of our children and grandchildren, after we're called home. A Call for Courage is the book ALL Christians should read, study, pray over and use to take those courageous stands! It is just not informative, but will provide Christ-centered instruction and guidance on how to take action! A MUST read!!!
