Description

Every boy has dreams of the man he will become--exploring the world, fighting the enemy, and being dangerous for good. He imagines himself as the hero, the expert, the one others look up to. Then somewhere along the way, the lies of the enemy knock him down, his dreams are shattered, and he loses purpose as the enemy attempts to rob him of his true identity.In this hard-hitting book, world-class hunter, adventurer, and popular speaker Brent Henderson takes men on a journey to some of the most dangerous and deadly places on earth. Along the way, he helps each man discover that the most powerful force in the universe can be found in his spirit, where God resides. He shows men how to recover what's been lost by answering their biggest questions: Who am I really? Where does my value come from? and Am I enough?The perfect gift for Father's Day, The Roar Within will set men free and equip them to live lives of purpose, courage, and confidence.

“In The Roar Within , Brent Henderson skillfully uses the best tool for helping men of all ages clearly understand biblical truths that transform. That tool is storytelling, and Brent is a master. Brent’s unforgettable experiences, along with some well-chosen experiences of others, will guide you to not only why but how to apply the wisdom packed into the chapters. Read it and roar!”
Steve Chapman , author of A Look at Life from a Deer Stand
“ The Roar Within is an adventure book with a purpose. It captured me with breath-holding stories ranging from Africa to Alaska and set me free with the paramount teaching of the Bible—that the power of God is at work within me. This excellent book awakens me to the fact that I am more than I realize. This is a book every man needs to read!”
Dr. Jimmy Sites , producer and host of Spiritual Outdoor Adventures TV
“ The Roar Within is a must-read for men. It is compelling, a page-turner, and brilliant in speaking directly to the things that take us out as men and help us live out of who God says we are. Brent is unique in his ability to weave together entertaining adventures as a professional outdoorsman with incredible wisdom as a seasoned leader, and his humility, honesty, and wisdom are both inspiring and refreshing.”
Robby Angle , president and CEO of Trueface.org
“Our culture’s onslaught against righteous masculinity is Satan’s strategy to destroy men’s role as image-bearers of God. But God has raised up His spokesmen. One such warrior for truth is Brent Henderson. The Roar Within exposes the emasculating lies of the enemy and boldly proclaims God’s life-changing words that every man must hear: you are enough! A compelling, victorious adventure and a must-read for every Christian man!”
Russell Thornberry , Buckmasters Magazine editor-in-chief (retired), founder of Wildman, and international pastor at River’s Edge Fellowship, Alberta, Canada
“I have known and partnered with Brent for a number of years, and what I and the men within my influence love about him is his ability to combine fascinating, true life experiences with genuine humility and terrific insight. True to form, The Roar Within is for every guy who has either lost or never found his true voice—the one God predestined for him to declare His authority over any opposition to His heart and legacy.”
Randy ( RT) Phillips , former president of Promise Keepers and men’s pastor at Life Austin Church, Texas
“Through this book of great adventures, Brent invites you to join him in his greatest adventure—the discovery of trusting God with yourself.”
Bill Thrall , cofounder of Trueface.org and coauthor of The Cure
“A must-read! The Roar Within is every man’s survival guide to help navigate the wilds and chaos within him. This book brings to light what kills a man on the inside while providing hope and practical methods to defeat these ‘man-killers.’ It gives a voice and supernatural strength to the subdued spirit or ‘roar’ within a man’s heart that, once found and released, provides the courage, strength, and passion to lead himself, his family, and others according to God’s original design for a man. Be prepared for a wild, riveting ride . . . and find a comfortable spot, because right from the first paragraph, you will not be able to put this book down.”
Russell Peck , Palm Coast, Florida, law enforcement officer (retired), outdoor enthusiast, and ministry leader
“In The Roar Within , Brent Henderson masterfully and insightfully dismantles the false narratives men have been taught and begins replacing lies with truth. I’ve had the honor to know, travel with, and share experiences with Brent in some pretty extreme environments. Through these experiences, both physical and spiritual, I’ve come to the place (as all men do eventually) of asking myself, ‘Who am I really, where is my true value, and am I enough?’ The Roar Within takes you on a journey of self-discovery in search of those answers.”
Ken Dodson , president of True North Ventures, Inc.
“If I were you, I would read this book! Whether you are a nonbeliever, a new Christian, or have been a believer for decades, The Roar Within will give you great insight into the love of God and the joy that comes from knowing who you are. No matter where you are in your life’s journey, the wisdom of this book will expose the devil’s lies and guide you to the joy God intended for you. Enjoy Brent Henderson’s labor of love and rejoice in finding your roar !”
Will Primos , founder of Primos Hunting
“As a wife, a mom of two boys who are now grown men, a grandmother to two little boys, and a woman working in a mainly male industry, I’m still learning about how God uniquely wired men. After reading The Roar Within , I feel a great sense of relief realizing I don’t have to dampen the spirit of adventure of the men in my life; it’s inborn for a purpose. It’s so crucial that our boys have an earthly father who has his focus on his heavenly Father. Each man has to find the confidence that only Christ can give and, in turn, find the roar within that God wants him to share with the world. I highly recommend this book to all women to help them understand the warrior, protector, and adventurer buried in the heart of every man, because it will free you to be the woman God made you to be.”
Lisa Bevill , contemporary Christian musician

Introduction
THE ROAR WITHIN
Oh, the power revealed the first time the lion cub roared—and understood who he really was.
O ne of the scariest nights I have ever spent was in a small fenced-in camp in Balule, South Africa, on the southern banks of the Olifants River in Kruger National Park. At night you can hear whole prides of lions roar—it’s awesome .
As the African sun began to set, the flickering glow of the campfire illuminated a wide circle. The shadows of the night crept in and sparks drifted skyward. My tent was pitched just feet away from the edge of a barbed wire–topped chain-link fence, and I grilled hamburgers over the open flame. The intoxicating aroma of burning flesh cast a spell on man and beast for miles around as it swirled about and drifted into the night. When the final glimmer of daylight had melted away, the temperature dropped and blackness descended, as if I were sinking into the depths of the darkest sea.
While I was finishing the last few bites of meat, something caused me to pause and squint past the glow of the fire into the shadows. I sensed something was locked onto me before I had visual recognition; it’s an intimidating feeling. Through the fog of the night and the drifting smoke—there, only twenty feet away, a ghostly pair of yellow eyes three feet off the ground was staring straight at me. I was totally paralyzed. Silent fear set in as the hairs stood up on the back of my neck; I could feel “fight-or-flight” begin to pump through my veins. Whatever had me in its sights
