Pursuing Freedom: Becoming the Man You Could Be
Men are always on a quest for freedom. But what does true freedom really look like in today's world? Society fills us with shallow promises and phony role models. In Pursuing Freedom, author Thomas Wurtz points Catholic men in a very different direction. To be truly free is to follow Christ, and to imitate the saints. When men make that bold move they will find true freedom.
As a Catholic man, you are designed with a unique calling.
You are meant to guard and protect the most significant things in life, even to death. This calling is difficult. The only hope in achieving it, with the grace of God, is to live in true freedom.
In Pursuing Freedom: Becoming the Man You Could Be, Thomas Wurtz challenges Catholic men to find this freedom by embracing eight essential characteristics: the acknowledgement of the spiritual realm, a life of self-control, magnanimity, humility, resilience, surrender, commitment to mission, and, most of all, love. As you pursue these eight attributes, you will begin to achieve the freedom necessary to fully live the profound calling given to you. In this, you can become the man God made you to be.
