Serve First or Me First?-#146

Accountability. In this next chapter from Vince Miller’s book “Disciplines for Men” we read from the book, which can be purchased from his site beresolute.org and discuss spiritual accountability among men, what that looks like, and how to get started.

Let's talk about something that often stays hidden in the shadows of our lives – pain/trauma. It's that deep, unsettling experience that sneaks up on us when we're looking the other way. It's sly, making us think what we went through was just 'normal,' or it doesn't matter because someone else 'had it worse.' But here's the thing: pain isn't about comparisons. It's personal, and if it's stuck with you, it matters. Now, imagine this: there's a force, a higher power out there that's looking at the broken pieces of your life right now, saying, 'I can make this new again.' Not 'new' as in starting from scratch, but 'new' as in restored, with character and depth. Think about it. Scars can be reminders, not of defeat, but of victory and resilience. I want to leave you with this thought – we're like prisoners of hope, bound to the belief that what's been lost can be doubled in its return. It's about looking at the empty spaces and the wreckage and still being able to say, 'Something good is going to come out of this.' Because, according to ancient promises, like a road in the wilderness or a river in the desert, healing and new beginnings are not just possible; they're on the horizon." And with that, let's start this conversation. Where do you feel broken, and how can you begin to see that brokenness as the first step towards a new dawn in your life? Let's dive in.
