In the One Minute Pause and Daily Prayer, we're encouraged to "give everyone and everything" to God. That sounds simple enough, but why is this practice so essential? In this illuminating conversation, John and Allen share what happens when we pray these words, why it's good to release everyone—including those we love, and what can get in the way.Show Notes: Get the free One Minute Pause app at WildAtHeart.org/pause.Keywords: Christianity, Benevolent Detachment, Prayer, Meditation_______________________________________________There is more.Got a question you want answered on the podcast?

In Part 2 of this series, John, Bart, Alex, and Allen share stunning stories of the impact the book Wild at Heart has had over the past 25 years in America, Nicaragua, Germany, Ireland, Mexico, and practically everywhere else in the world. Early on, John and the team decided to "stay small and give it away"—a decision that has empowered men who have been transformed by this message, as you'll hear in their video testimonies, to then share it with others in breathtaking ways.Show Notes: To discover more about the Wild at Heart Experience, Events, and Fires, visit WildAt Heart.org/events.

There are endless ways to bring beauty, life, and order into this world—from cultivating ideas, gardens, and relationships to creating stories, songs, and an atmosphere of love. We do so through who we are and what we make. Yet something is off. Projects and pursuits that once filled us with joy now fill us with turbulence, confusion, and exhaustion. In this life-giving conversation, John and Allen reveal why everyone is creative, ways to get unstuck, and how to reawaken our desire to create with God—based on concepts from Allen's new book, The Creativity Glitch: How to Stop Being Stuck, Find Your Groove, & Create with God.Show Notes: Allen Arnold's new book, The Creativity Glitch, is available on Amazon.

Wild at Heart is a global movement based on a simple model: we stay small by giving away our resources and empowering others to bring this breathtaking message of freedom through union with God to their part of the world.

We all have a kingdom. Within it, our authority isn't limited to internal thoughts, emotions, and desires—but includes our external realm where what we say goes. The problem is, chaos often comes against our attempts to order our external reality. That's because while we live in a love story, it is set in a world at war. John, Blaine, and Allen explain what the Chaos Dragon is, why C. S. Lewis believed there is no neutral ground in this world, and how boundary lines affect the reach of our rule.Show Notes: The book referenced is Addiction and Grace by Gerald May.
