By consistently practicing the values and principles outlined, you can expect to see improvements in your relationships, personal fulfillment, and overall sense of purpose.
Gerry Contrino writes not from ideology but from lived experience. Raised the youngest of ten in a Canadian-Italian Catholic household, he survived domination, silence, and the pressure to perform toughness at all costs. Instead of merely reacting, Gerry rebuilt his soul, integrating spiritual disciplines, Stoic practices, and a chivalrous code that honors others. That journey becomes your guide: honest, unvarnished, and ultimately hopeful.
Gerry,
I really enjoyed the book. The examples from your personal life drew me in. The concepts of chivalry, stoicism form a great foundation for Christian men to base their lives on. The chapters were well organized and helpful.
I think it is a well written book that lays out a good plan in discipleship for men.

"Having watched my father live out the very principles he writes about, I can say with complete confidence that this book is more than just words on a page - it’s a reflection of a life committed to chivalry, faith, and grace. The lessons and themes written here are not theoretical; they're lived wisdom. The product of decades of discipline, humble leadership, and a loving heart anchored in Christ. For young men seeking to understand what it means to lead with integrity, to serve with purpose, and to live as Jesus did, this book offers both inspiration and a practical roadmap."
My Son, Environmental Engineer
I felt very inspired by the book, the simplicity and explanation of how I viewed myself as a Man, a Husband, a father, and Neighbor. You have obvious Insite thru your experiences and trust in God the Father. I like that it is broken down in short chapters that I can review easily. Most books are usually very long and filled with stories of how each viewpoint is relatable, I did not need this in the way this is written. Reviewing the chapter is like reviewing my notes. Clear and to the point. Thank you. Very well written.
