FIGHT: WINNING THE BATTLES THAT MATTER MOST<br />

GROESCHEL, CRAIG<br />

Author and pastor Craig Groeschel helps you uncover who you really are---a man created in the image of<br />

God with a warrior's heart---and how to fight the good fight for what's right. You will find the strength to<br />

fight the battles you know you need to fight---the ones that determine the state of your heart, the quality of<br />

your marriage, and the spiritual health of your family. Craig will also look at examples from the Bible,<br />

including our good buddy Samson. Yep, the dude with the rippling biceps and hippie hair and a thing for<br />

Delilah. You may be surprised how much we have in common with this guy. By looking at his life, you'll<br />

learn how to defeat the demons that make strong men weak.<br />

FIGHTING BACK: THE CHRIS NILAN STORY<br />

NILAN, CHRIS<br />

Chris Nilan, who grew up in the tough and gritty Irish enclavein Boston, was a feared enforcer for the<br />

Montreal Canadiens, Boston Bruins and New York Rangers, and a Stanley Cup champion never afraid to<br />

go into the corners or take off his gloves. He was a valued teammate whose very presence on the ice<br />

affected the way the game was played. Always a colourful character, Nilan was married for many years to<br />

the daughter of the longtime girlfriend of Boston mob figure Whitey Bulger, among the most notorious,<br />

ruthless and murderous gangsters in American history—almost all of his Habs teammates attended the<br />

wedding. As an enforcer and as a teammate, Nilan ranks among the greatest of all time. When the<br />

cheering stopped, however, Chris Nilan did not do well. The same qualities—his aggressiveness and<br />

high-emotion style—that proved so valuable on the ice did not serve him well when his career ended.<br />

Nilan turned to drugs and alcohol to dull his pain, and nearly died from an overdose. Nilan’s story is a<br />

fascinating and troubling exposé of the booze, bills and drugs that destroy so many athletes after their<br />

careers are over. But it’s also a story of triumph—Nilan has been the victor in his fight against his<br />

demons.<br />
