The Way of the Warrior Saint: How to Live a Crucifixional Life, Paperback

The Way of the Warrior Saint is the book that heralds self-sacrifice, or, crucifixional living, as the cure for the modern fallacy of taking the easy route in life. Modeled on Jesus' victory over Death through His voluntary suffering on the Cross, it spotlights real-life heroes who through self-sacrifice became exceptional and reputable individuals. Readers are hungry for something more than a self-help book which so often focuses on self-betterment rather than this counterintuitive approach to life. Written in a conversational tone for a general adult audience of any educational background, readers will find the anecdotes, imagery and biblical exegesis both moving and relatable. Though presented with a Christian perspective, The Way of the Warrior Saint shares universal wisdom that enables peoples of all faith traditions the ability to connect.

"Personal achievement advice has been with us since time immemorial, but in The Way of the Warrior Saint, an American parish priest from Arizona, Fr. Chris Salamy, takes it to another level by overlaying a powerfully Christian teaching on top of the traditional wisdom of the ages. His unique message for exceptional living, through what he terms a crucifixional life, is an important concept and a must read, especially for all dads and younger men."

-Dean G. Popps, former Assistant Secretary of the United States Army

"The Way of the Warrior Saint is a helpful read for anyone who is trying to put faith into action. It is filled with real life challenges, engaging stories, solid principles, and practical tips to help the reader navigate life's uncertainties with clear direction. Father Chris distills his years of ministry experience into memorable and applicable 'takeaways' that can help each one of us and all of us live a life that honors God and serves others."

-Tim Tassopoulos, President and COO, Chick-fil-A, Inc.

"The Way of the Warrior Saint is a work of art. Fr. Chris identifies the missing link in our lives that allows us to conquer anything and live successfully. The concept of living a crucifixional life to overcome and win is genius and a tool that everyone should embody. This book is a must read for anyone that has faced challenges and wants to live more powerfully."

-Dr. Eric J. Scroggins, author of Vision Blockers, life & business coach, CEO of EricScroggins.com

"In The Way of the Warrior Saint, Fr. Chris draws from his personal experiences to paint a vivid and compelling case for taking up the 'crucifixional' way of life. Not only does Fr. Chris inspire his reader but he also gently guides them towards a fuller Christian life. I highly recommend this often humorous and bare-knuckled book by one of the Church's preeminent pastors it will engage every reader who wants to live courageously for Christ."

-Father Evan Armatas, Host of Orthodoxy Live on Ancient Faith Radio and author of Toolkit for Spiritual Growth: A Practical Guide to Prayer, Fasting, and Almsgiving
