Welcome to the Wild at Heart Podcast. It's the week of July 27th. I'm Alan Arnold and I hope

you're having a good summer. One of the things that we do at Wild at Heart

during the summers,

it's kind of a tradition, is we will open our vaults

and we will find a series from the past

that we think is too good to leave in the past.

It's one that you may not have heard and if you have heard it

it's one that's worth hearing again. And so I get to introduce this series to you today that was

originally recorded in 2015. It involves a

conversation on New Frontiers, four-part series, and it's John and Craig McConnell and they are discussing what a new

frontier is what it looks like to enter into that and what the

opportunities and challenges are to the new frontiers we face,

to the things in our lives that we are being invited into.

This is part one of the four-part series.

I hope you enjoy it.

Here's John Eldridge and Craig McConnell.

Driving into the outpost and thinking about a quote by Howard Macy that I read years ago, used years ago in Wild at Heart, which goes like this.

He says the spiritual life cannot be made suburban.

It is always frontier, and we who live in it must not only accept that fact, but rejoice that it remains untamed.

I was thinking Craig, is you look at your life right now and you think back, how different is your life today from

from 10 years ago.

You mean back in sixth grade?
