“Men have a primal need to break free from the destructive behaviors that keep dragging them down. They are baffled that they can’t break free. And it’s embarrasing. They desperately want to experience freedom from their bondage to sin. They do their best to manage these behaviors, but what they really want is for the damage to stop. But they feel weak and stuck. Unfortunately millions of us just don’t know where to turn.” Patrick Morley... Man Alive
