Men have been sold a lie that says sacrificial masculinity is a waste of time and perpetual youthfulness and self-centeredness is the road to fulfillment.

We are in a war, and that war is against the very identity of men.

There is a process by which God builds a bold man, and it is seen in the life of Joseph. In this process, God will work providentially, in every detail of the man's life. He will work strangely, therefore much of what God is doing won't make sense. And he will work slowly, frustrating the man who is in a hurry to succeed immediately.
