Listen "052 Chris Bolinger author of Daily Strength for Men on vulnerability & male friendships in church"
Episode Synopsis
Chris Bolinger author of Daily Strength For Men devotional is my guest for Episode 52 of The Courage, Coaching and Counseling Podcast.
Chris shares the story of how he wrote his devotional and how a men's group - CLC- helped him open up and connect with other men on a deeper level than ever before. We explore how it affected his marriage and parenting and why male friendships in church can be so difficult.
After a 27-year career in high tech, Chris left the tech world to focus on providing resources to Christians. He started Revitalize Ministries to help small church leaders and was an executive producer of the film "The Song". Revitalize Ministries failed, and “The Song” was a box-office bomb.
So Chris decided to write a daily devotional that would encourage men. Much to his surprise, and that of his publisher, Daily Strength for Men has done very well, selling over 200,000 copies. The book now is the foundation of a major men's ministry curriculum. Chris is a competitive tennis player and enjoys singing in choral groups. A native of Akron who moved back to northeast Ohio in 1999, Chris is a lifelong fan of Cleveland pro sports teams, so he says, "Wait 'til next year!" a lot.
