Warriors: Every Man Matters is a collection of short stories with a Christian message presented in an adventurous, dramatic fashion, infused with humor and realism. The author uses brief, yet in-depth vignettes of everyday life to explore how we can embody a biblical concept (hope, love, forgiveness) each day. Warriors also addresses the big issues, like the death of a family member and drug use, but never in an accusing manner. The main characters, ranging from soldiers, construction workers, boxers, and professional baseball players, to fathers, businessmen, and families, create a wide reader appeal. The primary target audience is men, but women have also shown a strong interest. Questions and thoughts to consider are included at the end of each of the twenty-five stories, to encourage the use of Warriors for weekly study in a church or men's group.

Review:

"Warriors has found that elusive sweet spot . Equal parts practical and provoking, Michael Obermire and Gary Zelesky speak right into the inner wish of every man to be more than he is right now. But Warriors is no false carrot, it does not dangle before men great ideas, it presents men with great choices... choices every guy can make to improve their life starting now. Books are supposed to inspire the reader and quickly offer safe-haven options that can be acted on today. Warriors delivers exactly that. Obermire and Zelesky know that men are looking for results. Men need more than a way out of the bottomless pit; they want to ascend to the heights of purpose. Warriors is the perfect game plan for such a journey." --Scott Hagen, Pastor at Real Life Church, Sacramento, CA, and nationally known motivational speaker
