Warrior Spirit. Incorporating Biblical Teachings into Your Martial Arts Journey
Amy Gartin;Rich Van Doorn (Author) · Independently published · Paperback
Train with Purpose. Fight with Faith. Lead with Christ.
Martial arts shape the body.
But what shapes the spirit behind the warrior?
In Warrior Spirit: Incorporating Biblical Teachings into Your Martial Arts Journey, Grandmaster Rich Van Doorn (8th Dan Hapkido) delivers a powerful call to Christian martial artists who refuse to separate their faith from their training.
After more than 40 years on the mat, GM Rich Van Doorn addresses a tension many believers feel but rarely articulate:
How do you pursue excellence in martial arts without compromising your allegiance to Christ?
This book offers a bold answer.
Rather than blending Christianity with Eastern mysticism, Warrior Spirit presents a distinctly biblical framework for martial artists who want their training shaped by Scripture, not spiritual ambiguity.
Inside, you'll discover how to:
Redefine strength as "power under control" through biblical meeknessApply spiritual discipline with the same rigor as martial trainingPut on the Armor of God with a warrior's mindsetLead with humility instead of egoCultivate the Fruit of the Spirit on and off the matUnderstand spiritual warfare with clarity and confidenceBuild fellowship that sharpens both skill and faithDevelop a "black belt mindset" that finishes well and multiplies leadersDrawing from Karate, Taekwondo, Brazilian Jiu-Jitsu, Krav Maga, Tang Soo Do, Hapkido, Japanese Jujitsu, and more, this book connects practical training principles with timeless biblical truth.
Whether you are:
A white belt new to both faith and fightingA seasoned black belt seeking deeper spiritual maturityAn instructor building a Christ-centered cultureOr a believer navigating martial arts with convictionThis book will challenge you to become more than skilled.
It will call you to become transformed.
The mat is not just a training floor.
It is a proving ground for character.
The fight is not just physical.
It is spiritual.
And the warrior who walks with Christ fights differently.
