Discontent: How You Heart’s Desires Betray You

Men my age have been told our entire lives that who we are—our identity—lies deep within us. We’re told courage is pursuing that dream, no matter the cost.

Discontent: How Your Heart’s Desires Betray You offers a new direction for self-discovery learned through the often misunderstood story of Samson—the Bible’s anti-hero, blinded and betrayed by his own heart’s desires—and his undiscerning, unimaginative father, Manoah. Their restless need for adventure and identity offers dramatic proof that discovering who you are can’t be achieved; it must be received.
