The Great Adventure: The Adventurer's Wiring
❓ Guiding Question:
How does a man make wise, lasting decisions in the chaos of life—and what role does his unique wiring play in creating a meaningful legacy?
🗝️ Key Takeaways:
Life Feels Like Air Traffic Control.
With so many pressures, obligations, and decisions swirling around, it’s easy for a man to lose his way. Wise living depends on good "wiring."
Wiring = How You're Made + What You've Lived + Where You're Headed.
Robert Lewis presents a model where your design, past experiences, present convictions and problems, and future vision all feed into how you navigate life.
Your Design Matters.
Every man is uniquely made with talents, abilities, motivations, and God-given strengths (Psalm 139:14). Knowing your design helps you find energy and fulfillment in your pursuits.
The Past Always Carries Over.
Positives (e.g., strong family, success, faith) can empower your present.
Negatives (e.g., wounds, broken relationships, shame) act like hidden cancers if unaddressed.
Until past wounds are faced and healed, they will sabotage your current pursuits.
Convictions Anchor You.
Many men lack real convictions. True convictions aren’t just beliefs—they’re values you live by and can prove with your actions. Without convictions, men drift.
Problems Are Destabilizers.
The big four: marriage, children, job, and money. If unaddressed, these problems quietly wreck your wiring and pull you off course. Facing them honestly is part of godly manhood.
Future Vision Pulls You Forward.
Knowing where you’re going—your dreams and God’s purposes—keeps you moving with clarity. Most men lack defined dreams or plans and get lost in the fog of routine.
Legacy and Destiny Matter.
Life isn’t just about success—it’s about legacy and eternity. What happens when you die? Your answer to that shapes how you live today.
Self-Evaluation is Key.
Robert offers a "circuit tester" exercise: Evaluate each aspect of your wiring (design, past, convictions, etc.) and label it with a "+" (healthy) or "–" (unhealthy). Where you see a negative, that’s where your next life adventure must begin.
The Goal is Full-Life Manhood.
One path leads to a dead-end half-life manhood: pressured, lost, isolated. The other leads to life-giving adventure: healed, purposed, future-facing.
📖 Key Scripture References:
Psalm 139:14 – “I praise you because I am fearfully and wonderfully made…”
(Affirms God’s intentional design in every person.)
Proverbs 15:22 – “Plans fail for lack of counsel, but with many advisers they succeed.”
(Wise men seek help.)
Ecclesiastes 12:1, 7 – "Remember your Creator… the spirit returns to God."
(Life is short. Eternity is real.)
Ecclesiastes 2:24; 3:11; 5:18; 9:9 – Various calls to enjoy life as a gift, yet live with eternity in view.
John 10:10 – “I came that they may have life and have it abundantly.”
(True life comes through Christ.)
