Heroes do indeed come in many shapes, sizes, and colors.

Really nice post. Thank you.

"So much attention is paid to our secular heroes that it is easy to forget that bravery displayed in physical situations and circumstances is not the most important form of “courage.” The kind that really counts (emphasis mine) is the courage shown on the fields of “spiritual battle.”

No, all courage counts. To say that Christian courage counts more or less than courage shown in the face of the enemy is to belittle one or the other.

And what's up with all the quotation marks? Why does the word courage have quotations around it? Is this guy trying to make some kind of point, as if to say courage on the battlefield is called "courage", when it's really not that courageous when compared to Christian courage? Or is he just a terrible writer?

All bravery should be respected, whether it's facing the conviction of our beliefs in the face of ridicule and persecution, or facing fear, pain, and the prospect of a horrible death at the hands of our enemies.

Scouts Out! Cavalry Ho!
