Wild at Heart: Discovering the Secret of a Man’s Soul by John Eldredge
Roundtable Discussion Participants: Michael Thornberry, Gabe Boyd, Parker Panetti and Dan Panetti
Episode 1: Chapters 1-3
Every man is going to have 1) a battle to fight, 2) a beauty to rescue, and 3) an adventure to live.
What is a Christian man? Eldredge tries to present a target to aim for in life…if you aim for nothing, you’ll hit it every time! Jesus is our example and our model for life.
Eldredge addresses the concept of what a Christian man isn’t…he examines what the world has tried to make men into and the traps that far too many guys fall into that keep them from becoming the men that God has designed.
Don’t settle for “good” when the goal should be “godly!” Godliness includes goodness, but goes beyond that. The world doesn’t need nice guys - it needs warriors! Dangerous men who live under control.
Do you need to be whitewater rafting down a river in Colorado to truly understand what it means to be a man? No…but Eldredge is trying to get a person out of their comfort zones to see that life is greater and grander than what they have settled for. 
The question that haunts every man - am I [blank] enough? Am I strong enough? Am I smart enough? Am I rich enough? That’s not the question you should be asking. The I AM IS enough! Manhood shouldn’t be defined by a performance standard, but needs to be understood from a Biblical perspective because God is the author and designer of manhood.
“What is a Christian man” is an IDENTITY question. Your purpose doesn’t create your identity - your identity determines and gives you a purpose. Who you are should dictate what you do and not the other way around!
