WiRE

When we men are out in the world--during the workweek, in our jobs, at our workplaces, on planes, in hotels, often disconnected from God--we're a bit like men out in the wilderness, alone.

When we men are out in the world--during the workweek, in our jobs, at our workplaces, on planes, in hotels, often disconnected from God--we're a bit like men out in the wilderness, alone. The ruler of this world is our enemy (John 12:31, John 14:30, 1 John 5:19). It can often be, therefore, unfriendly and unforgiving, dangerous even, a place where we must fight to survive.But we aren't alone. God offers himself "more abundantly than all that we ask or think" (Ephesians 3:20-21). He offers all of himself, all the time--as much as we want, as much as we choose. And we must choose him. You see, we face important decisions: Can we reconcile our work lives with our faith? Are we the leaders at home that our families need us to be? Are we becoming the men that God intends us to become? In order to answer these questions, and others, we need God's truth in our lives. We need his help. There's tension, of course. We're busy. We're busy fighting for survival. Our days are filled with meetings, calls, commutes, travel, activities with kids, social activities. So while we know the power of living within God's truth, our busyness makes it hard. Hearing a sermon on Sunday is absolutely necessary, but it's not enough. We men need new, purpose-built ways of bringing God into Monday-thru-Saturday too. WiRE is one of those ways.The sole purpose of this book is to give men a way to choose God, right in the middle of the busyness. The sole purpose of this book is to be, like the mail plane or the telegraph wire of old, a mode of communication that penetrates deep into the wilderness--reaching men right where they are, right where they spend their days.
