Summary:
"Defying a culture that proclaims "real men don't cry," Jason Wilson calls readers to unlearn society's definition of masculinity and discover the freedom and healing of engaging with and mastering their emotions"-- Provided by publisher. "For decades, Jason Wilson tried his best to "be a man" but struggled to express the full range of human emotions because the only ones he felt comfortable expressing were the traditional "masculine" emotions--anger, aggression, and boldness. This went on until he finally released years of past trauma to attain the healing he needed to become a better man, husband, father, and leader. Learning how to master his emotions and verbally process them transformed Jason's life and relationships in ways he never could have imagined. He now seeks to expose the lies that many men have been deceived to believe about manhood and bring healing to their lives.Battle Cry will teach men how to wage and win the war within themselves--unlearning society's definition of masculinity and empowering them with the tools needed to freely live from their hearts instead of their fears. Wilson shows readers how to win internal battles before they turn into external wars; master their emotions instead of being ruled by them; release trauma from their past so they can live fully to their potential in the present; and communicate more effectively with the people in their lives"-- Provided by publisher.
