Can you actually know God without knowing yourself? In week three of our Rhythms series, Pastor Brian makes the case that emotional health isn't a side quest to spiritual maturity — it's the road in. He traces his own way out of a rugged-individualist masculinity that left no room for friendship or feeling, then walks through the false self Jesus refused to build: I am what I do, I am what I have, I am what others think of me. Along the way there's Thomas Merton on hollowness, a three-word prayer, and four rhythms — silence, trusted companions, discomfort, and courage — that open up what he calls the spacious place.
