The journey of Raising a Warrior documented in this book is a true story of loving, leading, and modeling a life well lived to a very strong-willed and determined young man. The story will provide a guide to raising all boys & girls including those strong-willed ones who are usually natural born leaders. This journey will document the 34 year process of me learning to be a good Father, learning to be a good husband, learning to lead the family, and ultimately modeling behavior that could be followed. The stories in this book will hopefully inspire, challenge, encourage you to challenge yourself and the ways you think about fatherhood and family, and hopefully push you on some level to change. Hopefully you will end the book with a desire to correct mistakes already made by your willingness to embrace your own frailty, improve upon your weaknesses, and raise the kind of people this country desperately needs. You can foster the growth of young men and women who are respectful, honor their parents, believe in our country and are willing to serve their country if necessary, have a heart to serve others, follow after God in a Kingdom lifestyle and generally want to make the world a better place. Now that is a big goal, but I believe it is possible because I have done it. This book will take you deeper into what it really means to be a parent and how that fits into our modern world. It will walk you through the importance of serving others and how that brings transformation in your life. It addresses the "pussification" of males in our society, the single parent home dynamic and how many children are being raised by Mom without Dad present, and how to make it work. We are even going to attack many of the lies embedded in our society today and how they have driven our children away from what is truly important and into an "its all about me" way of living. This is probably not a definitive work on raising healthy children, but it is a real-world example of a process that works and can be applied and repeated. I hope my journey relates to you and helps you on your journey. The bottom line is we all need help, I certainly did. I am thankful that I had strong men cross my path that were willing to teach, mentor, coach and help direct my ideas into a successful path. Hopefully if you make it to the end my personal journey will be a mentor to you! This book will be a two-part conversation. A demonstration, or example, from the father, with an accompanying lesson, followed by an interpretation by the son. That's me. Scott is my father and more of a father then any son could hope for. I've known he wanted to write a book for a long time. And as he began to write, I began to think. There is an incredible need for men in this world. That's not just a problem of today, but a constant theme of humanity. If this book could help that cause I'd be honored to contribute. Men must raise up other men. As my father raised me, I see him as highly qualified. That's not me giving myself kudos. I have a great dad. You'll see it in this book. So, as he began to write, my first thoughts were, "that's great!" But then I thought some more, and I read what my father was writing. I had all those awful feelings that tell you "no, stop!" My skin crawled, my spine shivered, and I had knots in my stomach. The things my dad was talking about I did not want to talk about. And I told him that. "Dad, I don't want to write or talk about these things."
