“Crazy Epic Courage” tells the riveting story of an ordinary man’s spontaneous act of defiance against Robert Mugabe’s brutal dictatorship in Zimbabwe and the incredible events that followed. He risked all to stand up for himself, his family, his country and oppressed people all over the world. Was he crazy? Maybe. Was he epically courageous? Without a doubt. Did he make a difference? Read this book and judge for yourself. One thing is for sure, the world needs more people like Evan Mawarire.

Evan Mawarire is courageous and inspiring—having faced an oppressive dictatorship and subsequent jailings in Zimbabwe, he continued to fight through the powers of social media, community, and prayer. I’ve seen videos of him speaking and he’s amazing. Not many would have the courage to put themselves at risk for the good of their country. His book is good but not as good as watching him speak, which is where he really shines.

This is indeed a crazy and epic story of a courageous man - a story that will inspire. Once in a while, a leader comes out of nowhere, from the bottom, with nothing more than their passion, which galvanizes a national movement for change. Pastor Evan Mawarire is one such leader. This is a timely and important story.
