How have you encountered God? In this week's conversation, Richard talks about those critical moments. Our everyday lives can be so clogged and busy that even someone who is very faithful can have difficult times in their walk. When we are busy, the Father is quiet. He discusses weekends like The Anvil, The Heat of Warrior Encounter with Zoweh, and the Wild at Heart Boot Camp with Wild at Heart . Our roll is to simply create that space where you can shut off the noise and encounter God. Not us, but God.

That through Jesus, there is a way to change from the inside out. He also invites you men to join us at The Anvil in just 1 month, November 10-13 in North Georgia.

In this week's conversation, Richard discusses the challenge many of us face with choosing kingdom building over our own character growth and growth with God. This comes after reading about the story of King Uzziah whose pride led to his downfall in 2 Chronicles 26. The challenge to us all is pondering where we have places kingdom over character rather than character of kingdom? How well have we handled the domain we've been entrusted with? Also, don't forget that registration for the Fall 2022 Anvil Men's Boot Camp is open.
