In this episode we hear from Peter on the subject of Courage, as well as an essay on Worship from Kinsmen Journal – Volume I. At a recent gathering, Peter spoke on the importance of pursuing what is hard and difficult, and that it often takes courage from each of us to do what’s necessary. He presents an alternative definition for the word, not one based on heroics, but one that’s a response from a life that’s consecrated to God.
Also, his essay on worship could be an applicable reset on how our worship unto God is about him and it’s a privilege to rest and worship in his presence, particularly in our local church.

Plumblines: An essay on Desire
In this episode, we kickoff our Plumblines section of Kinsmen Journal with an original essay from author and psychotherapist Jay Stringer on the subject of desire. This topic is one that can quickly lead to discussions about shame and what men shouldn’t be doing. Instead though, Jay invites us to explore the subject further and consider desire through a different lens. Jay’s book, Unwanted: How Sexual Brokenness Reveals Our Way to Healing is regarded as one of the foremost resources on the subject. This is an episode not to be missed, though it may be sensitive for listeners under 13.
