Interestingly enough my wife and I both signed the resolution. She was going to get it for me however I got it first and that set into motion things that are great.
I am glad that my wife and I are on the same page in these cases.

Feb 14, 2012 catherine b: I was impressed whenever I watched the movie 'Courageous'. Working with at risk children I witnessed first hand the importance of a positive male mentor in the lives of boys and girls without a father figure in their home.

I am a father, a husband , and a Christian. My wonderful wife and I saw this.....well, it is not a movie, it is a experience. But we viewed it last night, and ....wow. I cannot even describe the emotions, the roller coaster of this experience. I hope to help to bring the movement into my area. This is all so real, so true, so necessary. Where are you, Men of Courage? Oct 1, 2011 Adrien D: Hellow Tim I know there was no question But I have to tell you I saw this experience with my youngest daughter and I was blown away.During one scene I took her hand and held it for about 5 minutes! It brought back memories of my earlier days when I was married. unfortunately I learned too late in my life to fix the problems that caused my malfunction in my marriage. But thanks br to God that this experience has shown me that its never too late to try and fix my life with the RESOLUTION I look forward to recieving it and putting it into practice Thank you Oct 14, 2011 Reply to Adrien Good answer? Yes (1) No (0) Hartsel B: My wife and I saw the movie in the theatre the first weekend it was released in our area. The message in the movie is so powerful, and what we as Americans need today is to teach these same beliefs in our homes. My Children are grown now, although we have grand kids and great grand kids coming our way. This resolution will hang beside the Ten Commmandments in our Family room. I will strive to live my life even better to uphold my beliefs in life toward these resolutions. Nov 14, 2011 Reply to Hartsel Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) Morris-April M: That is the perfect description... this was an experience. A really beautiful experience that I hope so many people will see. Oct 3, 2011 Reply to Morris-April Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) Carol C: I am not a man and I do not know where the Men of Courage are at. I think some men are watching football, basketball and playing all of these fantasy sports instead of spending time with their family. It is easier to sit in front of a TV or computer than communicate with their wife and children. I think some men feel quilty and know they could of done better or could do better, yet they think it is too late or they can't fix it so it is easier to bury their head in the sand and hope things will work out. I think some men are in denial about their role or they are doing wrong, they can't see in front of them as to what is happening, or maybe they don't want to see it and it is easier to let someone else do it, they don't like confrontation. Men need to be the head of their household whether they are 20 years old or 65 years old or older. Make things right before they have regrets and lots of sorrow or they die. Wives and children need to feel important to their husbands/fathers. Make every moment count with their family. I bought it to give to some men in our small group that didn't get to go to the Movie at the same time as I did and hope to inspire others to be Courageous and Head of their household. Oct 16, 2011 Reply to Carol Good answer? Yes (0) No (1) A shopper asked: I guess I'm just different or something but my experience apparently differs from every other person who commented here. I will admit to feeling the weight of conviction over my failures. I will admit that the movie did a good job of reminding me that my "good enough" hasn't been "good enough". Frankly, I can take my licks, and have confessed my sins to my wife and children on many occasions. Where I part company with the pack, is with the idea that somehow men are solely to blame for the current situation and therefore men can turn their families around if they just submit to the Lord and sign this pledge. Sorry, I don't buy it. I see this movie adding a Christian spin to the popular sport of "man-blame" that has been going on in America (and now the Church) for the last 35 or so years. In culture, work, and home, men in general and fathers in particular have become THE fall guy for every ill under the sun. I'm not buying it. We (men) have been systematically attacked and victimized (yep-victimized) by every establishment from Hollywood to the public school system. Now, we even get it from our own churches. Speaking of churches... When pulpits stopped preaching the whole counsel of God, and stressing the importance of authority-MEN'S authority, they started a downward spiral that most men have not recovered from, and may never recover from. Men have become a joke in their own homes, ignored and disrespected by their children and their wives on most issues involving any type of submission, from Godly standards of dress and entertainment to how late the children should stay up. Is it any wonder that men have resorted to any number of diversions that keep them at a distance from those they love? Honestly, it gets really tiring having to constantly defend one's self from the challenges raised against even the simplest request. It is much easier to just "go fishing". "Courageous" is fine, but the question is-when will wives & kids get their version? Jan 10, 2012 Larry M: Larry M.: I watched this movie with my 11 year old son and was pleased to see the producers of this film be so Bold. I am posting this resolution in my home as for me and my house we serve the Lord. I do agree that some men have a difficult time accepting full responsibility in their own home. It is hard to know in todays culture what a Godly leader of the home looks like because we as men have so few examples to mentor us. My father did not give me the example I needed. I chose to be a loving father and follow Gods word for my family. It has been a struggle at times but the blessing of leading and standing true as a father has been incredible. I want to leave a legacy for my children to absolutely know what a Leader in their home looks like, they will know the path. I will have no excuse when my sons and daughters are healthy independent thinkers that know what Jesus did for them. This movie makes you realize that the best gift you can give your children as a father is being the leader of your home as God intended. Well DONE Jan 23, 2012 Reply to Larry Good answer? Yes (2) No (0) John T: I agree with you on men getting a "Bad Rap" lately. I know we are supposed to be the leaders, but I feel society has led us to recieve the lack of respect that we are supposed to recieve. Many behaviors and views are deemed "acceptable" that did not used to be. I also feel that there are so many "Deadbeat Dads' in the world today that the old "One Bad Apple" theory comes into play as well. As far as the Church goes though, my Church has "Men of Iron" and also W.O.W. (Women of Worth) groups along with lots and lots of teen activities. All of these things work together to make individuals and families stronger. I would suggest bringing your concerns up to your Church and see what they can do to help. If it seems to fall on deaf ears, maybe a different Church could be an option. Also, if this is a personal issue, talk it over with your wife and kids and get their feelings on it too. Good luck and God Bless. Keep the Faith. Jan 11, 2012 Reply to John Good answer? Yes (2) No (0) Dana H: Not so Different. Before I tell you where I stand on this, let me tell you where I sit: because of life circumstance I work nights from Tuesday evenings to Sunday mornings. I don't often get to church as a consequence. And before you start telling me/yelling at me why I should/can/ought to let me also tell you, because of this I often get a week of short sleeps - when Sunday morning arrives, I am often short 1-2 'nights' worth of sleep. I would fall asleep midsermon even if it ws Billy Graham or Billy Sunday preaching. This Father's Day Sunday was no different, except that we needed to move a washer and dryer down narrow baswement steps with tight turns at the head of the stairs. The rest of the family went to church and let me sleep and by the time they got back I'd finished prepping the environment (taking doors off hinges, clearing paths, etc) so I'd have a clear path for the appliances. By the time all the work was done, it was late afternoon and we needed to get the truck back to the truck rental folks. Since I'd cut my sleep short that morning (yesterday) all I wanted to do was finish my sleep. That's the setting and situation. I was told that there was a Father's Day to-do at the church that evening (last night) that we (I) ought to go to. My feelings: I was both beat up and beat down, stiff, sore, tired, stinky and sweaty and we were to end up at church immediately after dropping off the truck. No thank you, just a burger and a cold drink, please. When the wife (backed up by the little girl) say I ought to go to something, though, there is no arguing. It was their collective Father's Day gift to me. She handed me the church bulletin (to fill me in), and I nearly jumped out of the car: I didn't need something else to tell me how badly I was doing as a dad. I wasn't just beat up, beat down, and tired physically, but also mentally, emotionally, and just about any other '-ally' you could come up with. And a film called 'Courageous' looked like another one of those emotion-jerking, pinnacle 'This is how to do it, how it should be done' film. No. Thank. You. That's what I brought to this table. I wanted to speak to my wife about this, but I couldn't successfully find a pretense that the child was willing to follow to separate here from her two favorite people: Mom and me. What I wanted to talk to my wife about is what you just read. The seven-year-old little girl didn't need to be part of it. The long and short of it: we went in, late, and watched the movie. By the time I was done I felt: emotionally yanked around, wrung out, and all the rest. But I'll give the story-writer this: he didn't force paragons of virtue at me; the men in the story were typical mens' men, just trying to make it the best they could. The reason my emotions were wrung out was because I could see bits of myself in each of those men, from Adam to Enrique, not to mention each of those boys. I came to this site because 'The Resolution' hit me, hard. I wanted to get the wording of it, and I suspected I could Google it and I'd find it. Here I am. I still feel feel beat up, beat down and all the rest, in all ways. And part of that is the way society treats men who try to be good fathers little better than the 'playahs'; society sees us all as 'playahs'. It is little wonder that some guys end up buying into that. It is actually a great wonder that, as few as they are, so many guys DON'T. The world is out to get us, and by 'us' I mean everyone, not just men and dads, but women and wives, and the kids. Especially the kids. It can be a finely drawn line between 'we are here to support you' and the look down the nose at you because you didn't measure up somehow to someone's Ideal. I don't measure up to my own Ideal, it should be no surprize that I don't measure up to someone else's. But, and this is why I went looking for 'The Resolution' in the first place, we need that line in the sand that says 'this is where I will stand', Horatiatus at the Bridge-fashion. I'm not going to worry about when the wife and kids get their version: the wife has Proverbs 31, and has done well by it over the years. And the kids have: "Honor your Father and Mother." This has gone over-long, and I apologize. The Madman Jun 18, 2012 Reply to Dana Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) Elizabeth A: I agree with you it is harder today for man to get that respect and submission. The most important thing is to communicate with each member of the family as to the importance of submitting to the will of God above all. If the husband and wife are in one accord serving the Lord then it will be easier to get the children to follow the right example. If one of the two is rebellious in the relationship then counsel would be recommended. Without total commitment in Love, not in a belittling way I believe the man can win over his wife and children to work together. He can begin to help them in the restoration process that it will take for them to become a family. Love is a big key. I pray that God will help all the man out there to seek God and ask Him for wisdom on how they can help their families walk in harmony with God and His word. Jan 22, 2012 Reply to Elizabeth Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) steve r: There may be a version for wifes and kids someday but we as men have to be the head of our home and the leader of the family now that is the way GOD planned. If we as men do what God instructed and commanded us to most of our families will follow in what we as christian men teach according to God's plan. Unfortunately in this day and age because we haven't been the spiritual leaders in our homes our wifes and children listen to what media tells us is the norm, now we have a long way and a very hard job ahead, lets not look at what everyone else need to do but Man-up and do what God tells us, be the spiritual leader NOW!!! before it's to late.

I find myself having to explain my version of what it means for a women to submit to their husband...everyone seems to see that as bad...but I see it as a male to being someone she wants to submit to...and part of being a leader is taking care of those you are in charge of...and in the case of the father...his life Jan 21, 2012 Reply to David Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) (unknown) (: We did the series as not just men but "Creating Couregous Christian Families" and rewrote the resolution so that anyone could sign it not just dads. One of the main ways we accomplished this is expanding the "I DO' first paragraph to include "immediate family, adoptive family, church family, and our community" as a definition so that everyone single or otherwise could be included. We then changed some of the I WILL parts to match that new definition. Jun 7, 2012 Reply to (unknown) Good answer?

You feel victimized and yet by your own admission you have chosen to take the easy way out! If you want your family to trust your decisions and respect you then you have to lead by example. The movie "Fireproof" is also a very good example of what miracles God can do even if only one parter is willing to change. You are only a "victim" if you choose to be. God will give you whatever is lacking, all you have to do is ask! Apr 26, 2012 Reply to Candy Good answer?

I'm only 18 and don't really have family that i'm around but i want to know if i would be able to sign the contract? even though i don't have a wife or kids, when i do. i want to be this type of man. Sep 10, 2012 Adrien D: Dear Jim I am blessed to hear that your 18 yrs old !!!! this RESOLUTION is not only for married men but for ALL men !!!! this is a tool so that you as an unmarried man can and should follow because it WILL make you the man That God wants us to be and the man that can be possibly the best woman that God has chosen for you!! this RESOLUTION is a great teacher to show us the way to make ourselves better prepared to become a TRUE father Go ahead and sigh it as a promise to God and your future wife and as the father of your future kids to become a true man of GOD Blessings Sep 10, 2012 Reply to Adrien Good answer? Yes (3) No (0) Tam S: Absolutely, as you are making choices now that will benefit and honor your family one day. So wonderful that at 18 you are hearing the message and answering the call to be COURAGEOUS! Connect with a strong, Godly male mentor James so that he can help you stay accountable! God's best to and through you! Sep 10, 2012 Reply to Tam Good answer? Yes (1) No (0) Reply to James Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) Adrien D: Sure Just because you got divorced dosent mean that God has forgotten you!!!!!!!! He said that (ALL) your sins will be forgiven. The reason I bought (THE RESOLUTION) is becauce God has given us a second and third ETC ETC chance and He promised He'll be with us till the end of time!!!!!!! And if we do the resolution it will prove that God is a forgiving God and He will honor our hearts and prayers and bless us ( IF it's done from your heart ( By the way I'm divorced and I purchased it a few months ) Be blessed and buy it May 5, 2012 Reply to Adrien Good answer? Yes (3) No (0) Thomas S: Great question. The movie got me to thinking the same thing. I am not able to do it just the way the Resolution says. I am a dad with adult children, grand kids and divorced. I have a commitment to live a life as best as I can to show Christ to my children and not to do or say anything that would be negative or slandering towards their mom. I treat their mom respectfully as a friend and someone who is created in His image and the results of this is up to God. That is what I have adopted for my life. Maybe you are able do something that will fit your life that is close to the Resolution. Hope this is of some help. God Bless! May 8, 2012 Reply to Thomas Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) Kaleb T: In my church, the pastor printed a copy of the resolution on every worship guide on Father's day. He invited those men that were willing to commit to living out the resolution to stand, and there were teenagers who had neither wives nor children who stood to take part in this resolution. If a teenager can be willing to commit, why on earth wouldn't a divorced man be able to? Jul 10, 2012 Reply to Kaleb Good answer?

Yes (0) No (0) A shopper asked: Watched the movie "Courageous" as a family and loved it. My daughter and I decided to give the framed print resolution to my husband as a gift for his birthday. We were really excited about this, only to be disappointed that he did not share the same views. He thought it was inappropriate and thought this should be something he should want to buy for himself. He said to get him what he wants from now on for his birthday and christmas. Was really not what I expected to hear from himand wished he thought differently. Was there a way I could have presented him with this great message in a different way? Mar 10, 2012 Victoria E: I almost think something like that should be something the father would decide for himself if he wants or not, as it's a written committment that he would sign and commit to following as a testimony to everyone that sees it. It's not to be taken lightly, and you have to be ready for it if that's something you choose to do.. Only he knows if thats in his heart to do or not, so he probably felt like it was being forced on him as it's something very personal. Anyways, your heart was in the right place. It's one of those things where we as women have a different perspective of what our intentions are from men. I guess hang onto it, and if he ever brings it up to see if you still have it, then maybe that means he's ready, but I wouldn't lay it around for him to see, as he'll take it as your still not letting it be his decision for if he wants to do something like that or not, You wouldn't want him to do it if his heart wasn't into it, or it wouldn't have the same meaning behind what it's all about. Mar 16, 2012 Reply to Victoria Good answer? Yes (1) No (0) Sheri A: Interestingly enough I did the same thing. Not a huge hit here either. I bought it before we watched the movie. We finally got to watched the movie because I pre-ordered it. He liked the movie but alas, it still it sits in his office unsigned and unframed. I think this is definitely something he should decide to do for himself. I think it is possibly an issue of pride that he didn't get it for himself and do it for us. Actually maybe he would rather do something that he makes up for himself and not copy any other. Being unique and sincere on a very personal basis is key I think. Mar 19, 2012 Reply to Sheri Good answer? Yes (1) No (0) Michael J: As a father, I saw this movie and realized I was not as good of a father as I should be. I purchased the resolution to remind me of the things I should do, as well something for my family to hold me accountable to. Your husband could have interpreted this gift as you hinting to him, he is not doing all the things he should do. Those are my thoughts. It might be be like a husband buying his wife a vacuum cleaner for mothers day. The wife might interpret as the house is not clean enough. Mar 15, 2012 Reply to Michael Good answer? Yes (1) No (0) Dana H: I agree, this is the man's decision, and if I had been given it, I woudl have seen it as just one more affirmation of how little I was, rather than how big. I'm here because I see it s a necessary thing. But, if it had been given to me, 'forced' upon me, I may have seen it as necessary, but I would also have seen it as an accusation and judgement against me. As a suggestion: you might give something equally lofty, but says instead that "You ARE This" rather than saying "You NEED TO DO This". YOU need to be careful with this, as well, however. When my little girl calls me the 'Greatest Papa in the World', I feel it more as an indictment than an affirmation. Your husband may be at that place as well. The Madman Jun 18, 2012 Reply to Dana Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) Shenia H: I am so sorry that happened to you all. I think you should pray about it and I believe God will lead the way. We too watched it as a family. We also bought our resolutions at the same time. We are both going through a divorce because of entering into marriages without God. We are the happiest we have ever been in our relationship now and strive to seek out all we can to learn from our pasts and what God wants from us now. . We will be married soon and will have our Resolution ceremony directly after our vows. Before God, our kids, our families, our friends and our congregation. We also, have asked three Christian couples to help hold us doubly accountable. God will see you through all things, including this. Jul 8, 2012 Reply to Shenia Good answer?

Yes Mike Jan 26, 2012 Cathy R: My husband and me watched the movie and we just loved it and my husband is a pastor and he is going to put together a mesage about the responsiblity of fathers and make copies of the resolution contract and have the dads and their wifes come up at the end of the service and comit to the contract. And yes I think having 2 or3 witnesses ath the bottom is makes it better. I pray you keep making moies like courageous. God Bless You cathy rottiers Jan 29, 2012 Reply to Cathy Good answer?

Yes (0) No (0) John S asked: Are the creators of this movie going to also present this in a way much like the "Promise Keepers" movement back in the 1990's where God sovereignly moved upon the hearts of men yet unlike the movement move it away from the stadium events more to HOME? - One of the Issues with Promise Keepers is many men had a real hard time with experiencing this real comradely in the stadium but could never figure out how you translate that in the home and so many new commitments failed because the home life didn't change. Oct 1, 2011 Rich G: I was heavily involved with PK for a number of years, traveling with them as a volunteer staff rep and heading up the local team for one of their final big events, 2008 in Peoria. It was about a week after that the big changes hit, so I understand the concerns you have about taking the big event/movie HOME. That said, it was unfair to expect PK to keep it going at home. Similarly, COURAGEOUS can't be blamed if home life doesn't all work out. Whether a catalytic event like PK or an eye-opening moment of awareness like COURAGEOUS, they are one time events. They can raise a level of desire to make changes, and spark a fire, but that fire will only continue if it continues to find fuel. That fuel is discipleship - ideally in a small group of other men, just as the men in COURAGEOUS found. When the men in the film had tough decisions to make, they knew their band of brothers had their back. I pray that men across the country and around the world find their own band of brothers to challenge each other and call each other out to live the life of the Resolution. Further, I pray that churches who see the film see the value of men's discipleship and seek to reach every man in their church and community an a real, meaningful way. Not saying "men just need to shape up" but to make a conscious effort to reach each man where they are, and provide the right next step towards a walk with Christ. Nov 2, 2011 Reply to Rich Good answer? Yes (1) No (0) Dan G: I never have married, but COURAGEOUS was very educational. I suggest you watch the movie. It has some comedy, helps one learn relationships with the spouse, and is especially beneficial helping parents get a better feel of how to raise their children. I attended Promise Keepers events myself and I understand your feelings. COURAGEOUS is a movie I feel is very educational in helping you get a better feel of family living, including responsibilities as being both a spouse and a parent. I remember Dr. James Dobson once said, "If a couple can make it through five years of a rough time, most marriages become stronger forever." Nov 27, 2011 Reply to Dan Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) John T: I don't know about the Promise Keepers but our Church on it's own, did a 4 week small group on the movie. I was unable to participate because of working nights but it went very well according to all of the men that I spoke with. Maybe your home Church could do something with it to support it more locally? I hope this helps a little bit. God Bless and stay "Courageous"! Nov 25, 2011 Reply to John Good answer?

Feb 28, 2012 Cathy R: My name is cathy and my husband is a pastor. When we seen the movie courageors he thought of having the men make a commitment to their kids and wifes and to God and having them sign it. When I looked up the movie on line and seen the resolutiion I thought of I could type the resolutions on my computer and my husband could make copies. But than I didnt feel right about doing it so I bought a copy. I think thats what God would want us to do as christians. If you buy a copy and call them and tell them what you want to do ask if you can make copies for your ministry you never know how God may show favor.

Yes (0) No (0) A shopper asked: Hollywood depicks men as a whimpy joke nowadays. They are depicted as bums while the women in the shows are depicted as the more respectable leaders that accomplish the job in the family and office, etc. and also are the strong protectors even in alot of the shows. I get tired of them depicting men as bums and being with accomplished beauties What message are we sending our men (and women)-- that the men can sit back and joke and live for their fleshes while the women do all the work and take care of them. This is sad to see this Hollywood message in so many shows and it taking place in our society. Women cannot do it all (take care of the children, house, provide income, be a good wife). There's not time enough in a day to even begin to do all this well. We need our men, our partners in life, to be noble and serve their families as well. The movie was calling for men to be noble and serve their families in love, agree? Jan 24, 2012 Reply to Lena Good answer? Yes (0) No (0) A shopper asked: can you purchase large quantities of the resolution for men contract without the framing? May 12, 2012 A shopper asked: Statement: As a man who has endured much personal failure in life I have also seen Christ's love and healing in my marriage. I give God all the Glory for his power, strength and Love. I wish I had seen this as a young father and been able to carry out many of the pledges with my kids. I am at a point now that I am going to sign the agreement as my commitment to God and family even though later in life. Many men are reluctant to sign this as afraid of failure. The reality is none of us will be perfect until we are with Jesus in heaven so with his help here on earth, I commit to do my best. Have you discussed in this forum the reluctance of us as men? Marc L Apr 14, 2012 A shopper asked: No question. I have seen the movie 4 times now. I am a counselor and Assistant Program Manager in a faith based, values centered prison reentry program. My men have in the majority, grown up with out dads in their lives. During the past forty years, I have seen the men give up their position of leadership. I have seen it taken away from them. I have seen men who wished for and dreamed of their fathers being there and more importantly, telling them, after teaching them how, "You are a man today." My men in prison cried as they watched this movie. They are not wimps! These are men who have been finding that the statistics of the sheriff are true. They have been finding "family" where ever they could find it. These are men who are weighing the gravity of signing a resolution such as this. When God called out leaders for His cause, He called men, when he called our leaders for His families, He called men. When He called the family, He called the fathers to bring them. We have given up and the women have tried to fill our shoes. Now, they have gotten used to the role and do not want to give it up. But they want us to have it back! Will you be a man of courage and do what God called you to do? When each of us do, our wives and children will follow. When we lead under God, our churches will become what they ought. Go back and see "Facing The Giants" and build your section of the wall! I want my sons to be the men of courage God has called them to be. Their wives and children will rise up and call them blessed. Feb 18, 2012 A shopper asked: I was so moved by this movie and feel anyone who says they love God should see it, and examine their hearts and spirits and ask if they are doing all they should be doing as men and women of God. I am often misunderstood as a writer and producer when i produce plays or write stories because people want me to write what people already know; but i choose to write to change lives as this movie has done. I feel I have a lot of work to do; I must be even more Courageous than i have been, that my work is not done. I give this movie 10 stars because it was heart felt and the best christian writing I have witnessed in a long time ( accept my work LOL) PRAISE GOD FOR I KNOW GODS HAND WAS WITH THE WRITER ( If anyone reading this knows how i can contact them please let me know I have two very strong scripts i would love to have turned into a movie . I will tell everyone i know to go see this movie it have put it on FACEBOOK AND WILL SHARE WITH EVERYONE I KNOW Oct 2, 2011 |
