Naked Man Moleskin
I recently started a book study with some other men from F3 on Wild at Heart. I think the messages closely align with F3 so I thought I would share some key themes from chapter #1.
- Through the authors soul searching we come to understand that he uncovers 3 desires that he believes are essential & deeply written into a mans heart & believes these desires to be universal to all men:
- A Battle to Fight – aggression is a part of the masculine design; remember that “the LORD is a warrior; the LORD is his name” Ex. 15:3
- An Adventure to Live – many men in attendance shared stories/examples of how, “when we go on vacation my wife likes to sit on the beach, where as I like to get out & go explore”
- A Beauty to Rescue – Adam was given the wind/sea, horse/hawk, but as GOD himself said, things were just not right until there was eve. It is just not enough to fight a battle as men, we need someone to fight for!
- Deep in a man’s heart are some fundamental questions he must answer. Can you answer these for yourself?
- Who am I? discussion centered around what is my life’s mission/purpose (in F3 terms, your D2X)
- What am I made of? discussion around why we get up at 4:30 AM every morning to workout or go run overnight races; have you pushed yourself to your limits
- What am I destined for? discussion on what will be your legacy
