God wants it for us even more than we do, and he is willing to bring about all that needs to be done to accomplish it. In the Exodus, God visited his people, enslaved by Pharaoh in Egypt, to set them free. He desired an uncommon freedom for Israel: to embrace the reality of sonship within a life of communion with him in the land he provided. God overturned the most powerful ruler in the world to free his people, sending plagues upon Egypt, and he led his people through the sea. He overcame a host of nations arrayed against them and settled them in peace, free from their enemies.
This is God’s plan for us as well. He wants us to come out of what enslaves us to discover our true identity as his sons. He will free us from what oppresses us-if we allow him. But we cannot come to this freedom on our own. He calls us into his freedom through a commitment to prayer, asceticism, and fraternity. First of all, we need to encounter him as the source of true freedom through daily prayer. Next, we must break the chains of what binds us, offering our attachments and distractions to him as a sacrifice. Finally, we need the help of our brothers, other men who also have received the call to freedom and with whom we will make this journey.
The next ninety days-and the years that follow-will offer you the chance to a different kind of life. It’s time for a new beginning, a new Exodus into God’s promises. As we follow Israel out of darkness and into the promised land, we will encounter Jesus as the one who can set us free and help us become the man God intends for us to be, living a life of uncommon freedom.

You guys should seriously consider changing back to a monthly subscription option. A lot of guys I know aren't signing up for the app but want to do the program - they don't want to invest $90 in something they were already on the fence about spending $30 on. God bless and thanks for all you do!
How beautiful and necessary.
We agree!
What a lesson. Thank you Father Mike for reminding us the importance of true friendship.
What about women don’t you think that there are as many women out in the world who have never had the friendship that you speak of if you don’t you are mistaken? And I rarely disagree with you.
I think he understands that and I think we all agree women face the similar issue. However I believe they are talking to him concerning the Exodus 90 challenge for men starting soon so that is why he mentions men only.
May we all find a true friend in life that can help us walk with Jesus on our journey.
God Bless Barbara
