Commendation Quotes:
This is not an endorsement. It is a plea. This book is for you. You must read it. Patrick Morley is one of the most intentional men I have ever known. He doesn't brush his teeth or order breakfast without a plan. This book has been written with the kind of care you'd expect from a surgeon, a fighter pilot, or a multimillion-selling decorated author with something very important to say. You likely don't know it, but you have been waiting a long, long time for this book, from this man. It has the chance to change everything you've thought about everything, starting with your own life. Again, I'm not suggesting you read it. I'm urging you to read it. A couple of pages in, you'll understand, and agree. Thank you, Patrick. I needed this book--I and thousands of other men.--Robert Wolgemuth, Bestselling author of Finish Line

Pat Morley shows us how to grow up while staying young at heart. God cannot heal the hurts we do not identify. This book will heal old wounds!--Mark Batterson, New York Times bestselling author of The Circle Maker
