Hey Fellow Dads,

Do you want to truly know and walk with God? In this episode I state that “God offers us His fellowship if we are willing to get to know Him on His terms.” What are those terms, and what difference will it make in our individual and family lives if we do know Him?

—Nathan

Ways to “Acquaint” Ourselves With God

Decide it is possible for you, as a man, to know God.
Decide how you’re going to use your time.
Decide who you’re going to allow to influence you.
Decide what you’re going to do acquaint yourself with God.
Do what you have decided God wants you to do!

Quotes

“God created you to know Him, He desires for you to know Him, and you will be satisfied with knowing Him as nothing else can satisfy you.”—Nathan

“…whether we like it or not, we are shaped by the people who influence us. In many cases, we can’t help who influences us—we don’t know who made our socks, or who made the ink in our favorite ink pen, or who made our dinged-up hydro-flask, or who built our smartphone, or who picked our coffee beans. But we can choose who will influence how we think about God.”—Nathan

“…more is not necessarily better. Faster is not necessarily better. Nor is less necessarily better. And new is often not better than old.”—Nathan

“…the venerable Dead are waiting in my Library to entertain me, and relieve me from the Nonsense of surviving Mortals.”—Samuel Davies
