"""It was a great read . . . tremendously inspirational! I became misty-eyed more than once while reading it."" -SEAL Team Commander A. Davis ""God has given Larry a great reservoir of gentle strength and quiet fortitude that equipped him with the ability to not only exceed his own expectations but to inspire and encourage other trainees like me to succeed."" -G. Cortise, SEAL, BUD/S Class 89 ""There is not another person who has been through the fire quite like Larry. He really has been through just about everything . . . from BUDS/Navy Seal training to business to cancer. It really is quite the epic story."" -B. Bufton, Publisher, Church.org ""I witnessed this man who would rather drown trying than give up his dream of becoming a SEAL. Somehow, someway, he made it through that night. It became an inspiration for me and others who witnessed his fortitude and perseverance. Frankly, I thought he would surely quit or drown. Larry became a shining example of never giving up on your dream."" S. Rawding, SEAL, BUD/S Class 89 ""A very positive, encouraging book that gives insight into how the author survived the grueling training to become a Navy SEAL and the mental approach and underlying beliefs everyone needs in order to reach their goal. The training was clearly more brutal than would be expected today, but for those who survived it and became SEALs, it is a badge of honor. It wouldn't normally be my choice of book, but it draws you in to see links between being a SEAL and a Christian, a new perspective on how he uses his faith throughout his life. Some great little anecdotes such as the reference to ""stop bleeding on the deck and get back in the pool"" and the reference to avoiding sappers - those who sap your energy. I loved the story of how he met his wife but was very sad as he shared memories of the death of his son. This is a powerful story that will resonate with many readers, whatever their religious beliefs.""- Nonfiction Authors Association Book Awards Program ""Larry C. Fowler is a storyteller-and he has great tales to tell. In Dare to Live Greatly, Fowler uses his experiences in the U.S. Navy's Basic Underwater Demolition/SEAL program to teach us about ourselves and about God. His stories are profoundly inspiring, slightly terrifying, and wonderfully challenging. They initiate the rest of us into a new way of approaching our everyday lives-with heart, attitude, and resolve. In concise chapters, Fowler's book shows us how to live into God's purposes and thrive amid the adversities of this world. I highly recommend it."" - Justin Camp, Author and Executive Director of Gather Ministries ""I couldn't put this book down. The author is an amazing Christian man who has been through the fire and his faith is even stronger than before. He writes about his time during SEAL training (BUD/S) and his life afterwards. The good and the bad. Each of us can relate to what he shares in this book. It's inspiring, steps on your toes a little, and is so encouraging. He shares practical steps in living a Christian life full of purpose. He also encourages you to never quit and 'ring the bell'. It's an easy read and I HIGHLY recommend it. Excellent for older kids as well. Reading about SEAL TRAINING (BUD/S) blew my mind... such grit and determination. This book is also perfect if you are in a season of discouragement, hardships, or grief..."" - Laura Beth Dineen Anderson"

Author Information

L.C. (Larry) Fowler was born and raised in the southern United States. He gave up college to follow his dream of attending Basic Underwater Demolition SEAL (BUD/S) training and become a famed member of the Navy Special Warfare community. The only problem was, someone forgot to tell him you had to be able to swim. Despite that seemingly insurmountable issue, Larry went on to successfully graduate from BUD/S Class 89 and was selected by his peers at Navy basic training as their ""Honor Man."" Since then he has launched more than a hundred websites and built two software and marketing companies from scratch. Following the death of his third son, Chris, Larry made the decision to write Dare to Live Greatly: The Courage to Live a Powerful Christian Life. Larry understood then that surviving as a powerful Christian in today's world requires the courage, grit, and the unnerving perseverance of a warrior in training. In his spare time, Larry enjoys college sports, spending time with family and friends, ocean swims, and reading while digging his feet in the sand. Larry enthusiastically believes that everyone has a unique, God-given purpose for unchartered success. Larry was an invited guest at the White House and has trained with Christian personnel across the globe, including Pakistan, Indonesia, China, and other countries at all organizational levels. Even while living with Lymphoma cancer, he has learned to live each day to the max. Larry loves to receive comments at Publisher@NavySeal.com. He is genuinely grateful for all book reviews.
