How to live a life of valor

Navy Seals

Navy Seals are some of the most respected men in the world. It is only since the death of Osama Bin Laden and the movie Act of Valor that the Seals have received main stream media covereage. I was fortunate enough to learn about them and their training before the media coverage. Our strength and conditioning coach showed us a series of videos that described the in-depth the training and discipline the Seals go through. They are the a leader in every sense of the word. It takes an extreme amount of discipline, self confidence, trust, and loyalty to become a navy seal.

Act of Valor

Recently with the success of the movie Act of Valor characteristics of navy seals has become more transparent to society. Many of the values that drive the seal program are paralleled with the values of Christians. It takes an immense amount of discipline and trust to be a man of God. Two former Navy Seals Clint Bruce and Jeff Bramstedt helped put together a video to show men the parallels of the seals and what it takes to be a Christian. They also present a challenge for Christian men to step up and be a man of God.

Make Your Code

I really encourage Christian men to watch this video and pay attention to the "Your own Code" section. It describes the characteristics it takes for both Christians and Seals. (Loyalty, Courage, Self Control, Honesty, Sacrifice, Discipline, and Integrity) and a few Ways to "Live your Code".

This "program" or the idea of making a code for your Christian path is a vital part in growing in God and your faith.


Navy Seal Code:
“I serve with honor on and off the battlefield, the ability to control my emotions and my actions regardless of circumstances sets me apart from others. Uncompromising integrity is my standard, my character and honor are steadfast, my word is my bond.”
