Rediscover Honor: The Lens That Changes Everything
What does it mean to live with honor in a world that often rewards outrage, self-promotion, and division?
In Rediscover Honor, Dr. Matthew LaGrange invites readers into a life-transforming journey to reclaim the lost virtue of honor, not as a reaction to the worthiness of others, but as a bold declaration of one's own character. Drawing from decades of experience as a pastor, counselor, and leadership coach, Dr. LaGrange weaves together biblical wisdom, real-life stories, and practical insight to show how honoring God, others, and oneself can restore relationships, strengthen communities, and reshape culture.
Whether confronting betrayal, navigating disagreement, or scrolling social media, the call to honor remains constant. This book doesn't shy away from the hard questions:
- How do you honor someone who has hurt you?
- What does it look like to uphold truth without tearing down dignity?
- Can honor exist in politics, parenting, leadership, or digital spaces?
Through reflective questions, engaging examples, and actionable principles, Rediscover Honor equips individuals, churches, and teams to become agents of healing and strength in an increasingly divided world.
Honor isn't weakness. It's spiritual strength in action. And it's time to rediscover its power.
Ideal for: readers of faith-based leadership, personal development, spiritual formation, and Christian counseling; individuals seeking to live with greater relational integrity; and leaders looking to cultivate cultures of respect in their homes, churches, or organizations.
