The Unfettered Bloke

I’m lost and broken all alone on this road. The wheels keep turning but the feeling is gone. When I fear I’m on my own, but you remind me I am not alone [...]

Life is tough. The Christian life is even tougher. Over the past month I’ve been convicted about my sheer laziness and apathy, both physically and spiritually. Because of this I’ve felt God’s prodding to begin pushing myself out of my comfort zone and stretch myself beyond my typical daily routine. It’s not been easy, but I’m not going back to mediocrity.
