Why are many young people today passionate about social justice, but unkind to people in their personal lives? Since self-centeredness is the cultural norm, it is vital to have a clear sense of how to treat others in our daily lives. A fresh take on the ancient code of chivalry can help determine what and who deserve our consideration, respect, and protection. Chivalry: The Quest for a Personal Code of Honor by 21 year-old human rights activist Zach Hunter, dares readers to view life as a quest, developing a personal code of conduct to defend others both abroad and at home, live with integrity, and do battle for good-and God.
"To the knights of old, another person's behavior did not dictate the chivalry of their response. . . . Chivalry is a completely radical standard. But it's what Jesus calls us to. The behavior of others is not our responsibility," Zach writes.
Each chapter examines a different element of the knights' code through a modern lens, putting the quest in a culturally-relevant context for men and women-not simply rules of courtship for men-to help both genders recognize broader relational issues. As Zach walks readers through the principles of modern-day chivalry, he shares biblical wisdom, insightful stories, and real-life examples to help readers develop their own creed and code-and live out a life of significance and honor.
