heart men journey
If a man is ever to find out who he is and what he is here for, he has got to take that journey for himself. He has got to get his heart back.
real heart passion
They ignore what is deep and true to a man's heart, his real passions, and simply try to shape him up through various forms of pressure.
live-life heart voice
To find God, you must look with all your heart. To remain present to God, you must remain present to your heart. To hear his voice, you must listen with all your heart. To love him, you must love with all your heart. You cannot be the person God meant you to be, and you cannot live the life he meant you to live, unless you live from the heart.
life odds wish
The meaning of our lives is revealed through experiences that at first seem at odds with each other--moments we wish would never end and moments we wish had never begun.
heart shapes persons
It is the thoughts and intents of the heart that shape a person's life.
falling-in-love important god-love
Falling in love with God is the most important thing a person can do.
integrity writing helpful
I don't write anything that I haven't lived. In terms of integrity, you have to write what you live. And if you write beyond what you live, it is theory. And theory is not helpful. It is just not.
wounds
But a wound unfelt is a wound unhealed.
nice boys men
Christianity has basically communicated to men that the reason God put you on this Earth is to be a good boy. Mind your manners, be a nice guy. That's soul killing!
couple race needs
Have you thought about His (God) handling of the gospel? God needs to get a message out to the human race, without which they will perish...foreve r. What's the plan? First, He starts with the most unlikely group ever: a couple of prostitutes, a few fishermen with no better than a second-grade education, a tax collector. Then, he passes the ball to us. Unbelievable.
spiritual jobs war
There is something about human nature that just doesn't want to face the reality that we live in two worlds. We live in the physical, material world where we have jobs, read books, and go about our business. And we live in a spiritual world - and that is a world at war.
real real-women vulnerable
It takes great courage to be vulnerable. It takes enormous strength to be a real woman.
father heart boys
Every boy, in his journey to become a man, takes an arrow in the center of his heart, in the place of his strength. Because the wound is rarely discussed and even more rarely healed, every man carries a wound. And the wound is nearly always given by his father.
spiritual adventure men
Adventure, with all its requisite danger and wildness, is a deeply spiritual longing written into the soul of man.
