    Read by the author. 
    Become a better husband, father, and leader when you learn to express your emotions in a healthy way. 
    In a culture that tells men to suppress instead of express, join bestselling author, speaker, and leader Jason Wilson (featured in the award-winning ESPN documentary The Cave of Adullam) as he calls you to unlearn society's definition of masculinity and discover the power of engaging with your emotions. 
    For decades, Jason was losing the war within--the internal battle that many men wage on a daily basis. He struggled to combat his toxic thoughts and emotions, communicating without composure, and ultimately hurting himself and his loved ones. 
    When Jason began to release years of unresolved trauma, he learned how to acknowledge his emotions and express them in a healthy way. He discovered that he was strengthened by transparency and vulnerability, which taught him to forgive, trust, and love without limitations. 
    Soon, Jason's newfound practices began to heal his relationships and transform his life. Throughout his journey of opening up, Jason became a better husband, father, and leader--and you can, too. 
    Supported by Biblical teachings, the lessons that Jason shares in Battle Cry will teach you that you can be empowered to break through what you've been through. Jason calls you to become a better version of yourself, equipping you with the mental and spiritual weapons needed to redefine modern masculinity and showing you how to:Embrace your emotions rather than be ruled by themWin internal battles before they become external warsBreak free from misconstrued masculinity and embrace your humanityCommunicate more effectively with the people in your lifeHeal trauma from your past in order to live your fullest life in the present 
      
    Battle Cry proves that it's possible to live beyond the limitations of your mind and finally experience the full life you've always longed for. What are you waiting for? It's time to win the war within. 
    PLEASE NOTE: When you purchase this title, the accompanying PDF will be available in your Audible Library along with the audio.
