The Lure of Asceticism
ABOUT ME
I'm glad you are here! The Unraveled Faith blog is my attempt at taking some of the writing I’ve been doing in private and sharing it with a larger audience. Do I know everything? Absolutely not… have I walked through some dark times? Yes I have! Have I believed a lie? Yes I have! Have I been hurt by people I love? Yes I have! Have I hurt people I love by my own actions or words? Yes I have! I am a regular guy who was a workaholic, struggled with anxiety deeply, struggled to make long, lasting friendships and was both my greatest critic and biggest fan.
Today I have not arrived… but I’ve seen that there are many men and women who are travelling a similar journey, looking for hope, looking for truth, looking for balance in their inner mind turmoil and trying to break free from life controlling addictions… also while trying to be a father, a husband, a wife or a mother… these are difficult times. To put on a brave face and raise children while battling personal challenges and making a living is no easy task.
I hope even one person can find encouragement in my words… perhaps walk a little closer to truth a little sooner than I did. If that happens… sharing my experiences and thoughts will be worth it!
