“It is a book about the recovery and release of a man’s heart, his passions, his true nature, which he has been given by God.” (p. 18) How each man pursues his own life is unique to him, yet it is always within the context of having a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a beauty to rescue. If these natural characteristics are not pursued, then that individual will feel incomplete. I’ll take that a step further and say that if he doesn’t carry this out from a spiritual perspective and purpose, then he certainly will experience an indescribable void; a deep internal lack of satisfaction to life. Man was made to live with a spiritual connection. When they are neglected, an internal void persists. But when these are put into application of a spiritual context, it seems an internal sense of satisfaction substantiates those innate desires of the masculine heart.
