Thursday, 13 August, 2026
For hours at a time, I sat alone in my garage smoking a pipe. No secrets. No shame. Nothing I'd have to hide if you walked in. And that "harmless little hobby" was quietly eating my life.This episode isn't about my struggles — it's about yours. Maybe your garage is a bottle, a game, a phone, the gym, the boat, or the deer stand. Hobbies are good. But there's a difference between a hobby that restores you to your people and an escape that removes you from them.In this episode:The escape I never wrote about in either of my booksThe "false positive" — how the enemy comes through the door you never thought to check1 Corinthians 6:12 — permissible things that master youGenesis 3:9 — the first question God ever asked a man: "Where are you?"Four practical steps to name what's underneath and take your hours backTHIS WEEK'S CHALLENGE: Name your garage. One sentence: "My escape is ___, and it helps me avoid ___." Then drop the word GARAGE in the comments — and when you see it from another brother, pray for him. He just turned on a light.RESOURCES:📖 Are You Ready? — 12 short chapters, each readable in about five minutes. Built for the man who's done hiding.
