Samson and the Pirate Monks

Calling Men to Authentic Brotherhood

By: Nate Larkin

Narrated by: Nate Larkin

With no-holds-barred honesty and poignant storytelling, Nate Larkin introduces a model of community and friendship that is reinvigorating men's ministry across the country, a model he calls The Samson Society. Too many men see the biblical hero Samson as their model for manhood - a rugged individualist of the highest order. Yet, Samson's solitary successes were eventually overcome by moral weaknesses. Larkin, through the story of his own past and the stories of those in The Samson Society, offers a radical, refreshing alternative.

An amazing story of finding freedom and friendship

This type of authenticity is rare and the ideas are thought provoking. He explains his views and the purpose and life style of men that choose to join the Samson Society

A Society for Authentic Change

This book is outstanding. I already knew of the Society and it’s principles starting this book, but I was continually impressed with both the author’s captivating writing style and his honest, humble perspective. Serious topics covered, but the book is not grave. I laughed out loud many times while reading.

Very glad that it was read by the author. Great writing and reading voice.

I would recommend this book for any man who is needing real brotherhood that actually helps one in overcoming the deadly struggles we so often wage alone. A lone wolf is a dead wolf.

Read this book. It’s a must-read for every man. I imagine many women could learn from it as well.

Respectfully Honest

I loved this book. By listening to an honest struggle with personal demons I myself can relate to, it forces me to soul search myself. Thank you for this book.

Well written & engaging story telling

The book is great. Hearing Nate Larkin read it, made the audio version really good.

Brotherhood

Nate tells his own story and in doing so he invites others to do the same. Creating a safe place to speak the truth about ourselves without wearing the old familiar cultural masks is healing.
A true brotherhood
