#1 Amazon New Release and Inspirational Bestseller in Christian Living Leadership

***NEW 2022 EDITION REVISED & UPDATED***

Multi-Award Winner Including the 2020 Nonfiction Authors Association "Gold" Award

"Thank you for not only serving our country but for opening up to tell the world about your Christianity..." Medal of Honor Gold Star Family Member

For Larry Fowler, Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL (BUD/S) training was almost a killer - Hell Week, swimming in human waste in the Tijuana mudflats and six months of mental torture can ruin anyone's desire to achieve their goals. Much less, their purpose in life.

This man and the author of Dare to Live Greatly is a graduate of BUD/S Class 89, who argues that every man and woman must have the grit, courage, and the tough-as-nails perseverance as a warrior for ongoing spiritual growth.

EMBRACE AND LIVE WITH CONFIDENCE

You're wired for strong spiritual growth. Live life as the mighty warrior for that God created. Are you convincingly thriving forward no matter how dire your circumstances?

WELCOME FEAR AND STRENGTH WHEN LIFE HURTS

Fear's purpose is not to kill but to paralyze. Fear is a necessary step in your success journey. Don't run from your fears but to them. True Christian leaderships, like warriors, never blink.

LIVE COURAGEOUSLY EVERYDAY

You're unique like no one else on this planet. See yourself as God sees you and live fearlessly. Be your best comeback story.

FAITH THAT NEVER GIVES UP

This book right from the beginning will pull you in, encourage you, and ignite a fire in you to live a life of true Christian faith. It will encourage you to find hidden confidence through your fears and inspire other people to do the same.

This is NOT a Navy SEAL book. Many great books accomplish this task and this is not one of them. To be clear, this is a nonfiction Christian book about one man's journey who successfully graduated Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL training. The sole purpose of this book is to be an encouragement for strong faith.

Editorial Reviews


"It was a great read . . . tremendously inspirational! I became misty-eyed more than once while reading it." --SEAL Team Commander A. Davis


"God has given Larry a great reservoir of gentle strength and quiet fortitude that equipped him with the ability to not only exceed his own expectations but to inspire and encourage other trainees like me to succeed." --G. Cortise, SEAL, BUD/S Class 89


"There is not another person who has been through the fire quite like Larry. He really has been through just about everything . . . from BUDS/Navy Seal training to business to cancer. It really is quite the epic story." --B. Bufton, Publisher, Church.org


"I witnessed this man who would rather drown trying than give up his dream of becoming a SEAL. Somehow, someway, he made it through that night. It became an inspiration for me and others who witnessed his fortitude and perseverance. Frankly, I thought he would surely quit or drown. Larry became a shining example of never giving up on your dream." S. Rawding, SEAL, BUD/S Class 89


"A very positive, encouraging book that gives insight into how the author survived the grueling training to become a Navy SEAL and the mental approach and underlying beliefs everyone needs in order to reach their goal. The training was clearly more brutal than would be expected today, but for those who survived it and became SEALs, it is a badge of honor. It wouldn't normally be my choice of book, but it draws you in to see links between being a SEAL and a Christian, a new perspective on how he uses his faith throughout his life. Some great little anecdotes such as the reference to "stop bleeding on the deck and get back in the pool" and the reference to avoiding sappers - those who sap your energy. I loved the story of how he met his wife but was very sad as he shared memories of the death of his son. This is a powerful story that will resonate with many readers, whatever their religious beliefs."- Nonfiction Authors Association Book Awards Program



L.C. (Larry) Fowler was born and raised in the southern United States. He gave up college to follow his dream of attending Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL (BUD/S) training and become a famed member of the Navy Special Warfare community. The only problem was, someone forgot to tell him you had to be able to swim. Despite that seemingly insurmountable issue, Larry went on to successfully graduate from BUD/S Class 89 and was selected by his peers at Navy basic training as their Honor Man. Since then he has launched more than a hundred websites and built two software and marketing companies from scratch. Following the death of his third son, Chris, Larry made the decision to write Dare to Live Greatly: The Courage to Live a Powerful Christian Life. Larry understood then that surviving as a powerful Christian in today's world requires the courage, grit, and the unnerving perseverance of a Navy SEAL in training. In his spare time, Larry enjoys college sports, spending time with family and friends, ocean swims, and reading while digging his feet in the sand. Larry enthusiastically believes that everyone has a unique, God-given purpose for unchartered success. Larry was an invited guest at the White House and has trained with Christian personnel across the globe, including Pakistan, Indonesia, China, and other countries at all organizational levels. Even while living with Lymphoma cancer, he has learned to live each day to the max. Larry loves to receive comments at Publisher@NavySeal.com. He is genuinely grateful for all book reviews.
