On September 17-18, BoldPath founder Leary Gates will be presenting the Intentional Man Workshop, a brand new offering from BoldPath Life Strategies.

The Intentional Man Workshop will equip you with a strategy and framework for thinking purposefully about the next twelve months of your life. Presented in two half-day sessions you'll gain new perspectives and some powerful tools to help you live more intentionally. Session one explores the biblical basis for intentional living and offers four pillars of intentionality for you to act upon. In session two, you'll create your year of living courageously plan as part of an extended edition of the popular Year of Living Courageously workshop.

As I write this, snow is softly falling, creating a blanket of pristine white--the quintessential image of a Norman Rockwell Christmas. So much unlike the original; the day the Prince of Peace quietly entered our world. What many of us celebrate now, surrounded by the comfort of family and friends, was then, for the Christ-Child, anything but comfortable. For a young man and his virgin betrothed, it was an untimely birth, in an unfamiliar place. The Bread of Life would spend His first night in an animal feedbox, for there was no room for Him to be born among the comfortable. Those who slept quietly in the inn were likely oblivious to the divine visitation just outside their earshot. The Gift was among them, yet they did not recognize it as such (John 1:10).
