description: There is an unnamed feeling that haunts most men. Its a sense that theres more to life than the day-to-day existence were living now. But the culture of this worldambition and greed and fearteaches us to ignore that feeling. Our culture nudges us toward isolation and insecurity boredom and fatigue selfishness and survival. It teaches us to keep our heads down to follow the system to man up and power throughbecause that's what we men are supposed to do. So we silence our questionsIs this really all there is? Wasnt I made for more? But we are designed for more.The universe's Inventor designed us like he designed the world: with passion and precision and purpose. He made us for confidence and significance joy and relationship. He made us to be part of something massive and majestic to contribute to his work of remaking the world. He made us to play vital parts in his Kingdom. But the one ruling this world now is a vicious enemy hell-bent on keeping us from becoming the men were meant to become and from doing the things were meant to do. This enemy spins lies that convince us into distraction and dependenceon alcohol drugs pornography and success-at-all-cost.Can we see past these lies? Can we begin living the way were meant to live?Jesus said I came so they can have real and eternal life more and better life than they ever dreamed of. (MSG John 10:10) He said that about us.Invention is an invitation to join a band of renegades and revolutionaries change-makers and troublemakersmen who dont accept the world as it is because they know theyre made for something better. Its a guide to living with the depth and purpose God made us for. It will help you see the lies that obscure Gods intention for you and reconnect with Gods design for your life.Is this really all there is? No. Theres so much more.
