Living with Heart: From Birth to Death Podcast Episode 58: 12 Movements of a Man's Life #8: A Man Trust an "RE" God

A man knows what is worth dying for, because he knows what is worth living for.

Movement #6 - A man identifies himself with mercy:

He knows that but for the grace and mercy of God, he would not be “where he is.” He would not be able to identify himself with The Twelve Movements, and he would not be able to implement them. 

Because he identifies his own need for mercy, having received it himself, he tends to be merciful and gentle without being weak.

Movement #5 is a matter of the heart, like every movement of The Twelve Movements of a Man’s Life.

Join Dr. Chip Dodd and Bryan Barley as they continue their series on 12 Movements of a Man’s Life. This week’s episode is Movement #4, A Man Grows in Faith.

A Man Remembers How He is Made:

A man needs to admit every day, with deep awareness, that he is not God, and is created by God. He did not create himself. He was created.

An inspired man, versus just one who is ambitious, knows that he is in service of something greater than himself, a mission that his heart is “called” to.

A man humbly faces his need of God, and he does not attempt to take credit for what he did not create.

A man faces and struggles with being a work in progress by admitting and struggling to accept that “clumsy is as good as we are ever going to become.”
