adventure battle beauty boys men movies written
Men want a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue. That is what is written in their hearts. That is what little boys play at. That is what men's movies are about. You just see it. It is undeniable.
adventure proportion feels
We are created for adventure, and if we cannot find one, we start blowing things out of proportion so it feels like we have one.
spiritual adventure men
Adventure, with all its requisite danger and wildness, is a deeply spiritual longing written into the soul of man.
adventure winning battle
Truth be told, most of us are faking our way through life. We pick only those battles we are sure to win, only those adventures we are sure to handle, only those beauties we are sure to rescue.
lying adventure true-life
We are made in the image of God; we carry within us the desire for our true life of intimacy and adventure. To say we want less than that is to lie.
adventure fighting together
Eve is a life giver; she is Adam's ally. It is to both of them that the charter for adventure is given. It will take both of them to sustain life. And they will both need to fight together.
adventure heart thinking
We think you'll find that every woman in her heart of hearts longs for three things: to be romanced, to play an irreplaceable role in a great adventure, and to unveil beauty. That's what makes a woman come alive.
adventure heart fighting
Deep in his heart, every man longs for a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue.
cultural debates family
I started working at Focus on the Family doing debates and media and cultural studies.
religion
I wasn't looking for religion; I was looking for a world view.
certainly created next
'Wild at Heart' created a set of expectations maybe, partly, on my part, certainly on my publisher's part, but also in the world out there, that my next books would be as remarkable.
faced people phrase serious sour time upset
You know the phrase 'Jesus laughed' isn't ever used in the Gospels. So, most people walk away with the idea that Jesus is a pretty serious guy, pretty sour faced most of the time, pretty upset at what's going on around Him.
sort
I have a call to speak, to write, to do sort of deep-heart surgery in people's lives.
christians experience honor jesus love people personally relationship respect worship
We're told that you can have a relationship with Jesus, but most Christians don't experience Jesus personally like that. They just don't. We honor Him. We respect Him. We worship Him. We don't experience Him and His personality like we do the people we love the most in our lives.
