Aggression is part of the masculine design, we are hardwired for it.... Little girls do not invent games where large numbers of people die, where bloodshed is a prerequisite for having fun. Hockey, for example, was not a feminine creation. Nor was boxing. A boy wants to attack something - and so does a man, even if it's only a little white ball on a tee.

Caring for our own hearts isn't selfishness; it's how we begin to love.

Security is not found in the absence of danger, but in the presence of Jesus.

Worship is the act of the abandoned heart adoring its God

For after years of living in a cage, a lion no longer even believes it is a lion . . . and a man no longer believes he is a man.

We don't live in the Garden. We live far from Eden. Every life is full of heartaches. Every life, frankly, is unspeakably sad.

We don't see clearly because we don't see with the eyes of our heart.
