Holy Grit: The Will to Persevere is a refreshing oasis in a culture parched by doubt and despair. It is a clarion call to leave the cave of resignation and begin a godly perseverance movement. M. Dean Register, a gifted pastoral theologian, draws on years of wisdom as he examines prominent figures from the Bible who chose to endure rather than quit. Having observed many people who once burned with devotion only to abandon their faith, Register makes an inspiring and compelling case for recovery. He deftly illustrates truth with engaging anecdotes that motivate readers to rejoin the company of the courageous in order to re-sign rather than resign. He also considers questions such as: • How can we experience the heat of a burning passion to persevere with holy grit? • Why is “waiting” an opportunity to seek Him in spirit and truth? • How can we find ways to forgive others? Holy Grit is a treasure for weary and wounded evangelicals and a straightforward challenge to reignite a love relationship with Jesus Christ. It is good medicine for anyone who needs to persevere when life hits hard.

Discover what it means to become a man of faith through the lives of ten male saints and their experiences pursuing holiness. In Holy Grit, you’ll join Catholic life coach Paul George to consider some of the tough issues facing men today—struggles in marriage, parenting, suffering, and finding purpose—to determine areas for growth and take steps toward living the life for which God created you. You might have grown up with an image of masculinity defined by tough guys on TV—boxers, gangsters, cowboys, fighter pilots, the fastest gun in the West. These guys had courage, backbone, and guts. They had grit. “As a man, I know the struggles of living a manly existence. It is one I deal with daily,” George writes. “I’m no expert, but I’m a gritty guy, like you, grinding it out on my journey.” But George admits that grit isn’t enough to satisfy the longing in a man’s soul: you have to start trusting God and taking seriously the call to be holy. Holy Grit is rich in personal stories, thought-provoking questions, spiritual insights, and mental health tips that help Catholic men like you build the spiritual foundation you need to serve your family, parish, and community. George invites you to examine how saints such as Maximilian Kolbe, Louis Martin, and John Paul II understood themselves as men. Learning from the lessons of the saints, George will help you explore how to: overcome vice with St. Augustine; pursue God through your habits with St. Thomas More; experience God’s healing power with St. Padre Pio; surrender to the will of God with St. Peter; and develop daily discipline with St. Paul. Each chapter introduces a saint, offers practical takeaways for modern men, and includes reflection questions, an action plan, and a prayer.
