Steve, I got my pocket knife!

True measure of a man: Christlikeness. Good relationships.

Problem: I'm so bad at being like Christ. Not good with relationships either.

Still about performance, isn't it? Extremely difficult to get away from?

While I'm all for Christlikeness, maybe Jacob is a good example, with the whole wrestling with God thing. Maybe we just need to wrestle with Jesus as opposed to trying to be like him. We'll always fail [at being like Him], but I can wrestle him. Maybe he'll bless me and change me.

. . . just some thoughts. Great show by the way.

Great interview! I think it is important for women to read this book, too. I have several women friends that measure their husband's worth by their ability to provide a comfortable life for them. My husband and I went through a period in the 90's where he lost his job, went back to school and we lived on my income as a teacher. It was a seven year period until he found another job. Couples in the church were not kind. I had one older lady comment to me, "oh, you young people are so much into that role reversal"! Jesus told me not to hit her so I didn't (but I did imagine it). Thanks for this interview.

Honestly, I came to this article because of the name "Richard Simmons." I couldn't help but wonder how you were going to reconcile Rock'n to the 80's and short-shorts with the measure of a man – unless you were going to say, "Here's the bottom of the scale, so be encouraged if you're more advanced." Sorry for the wrong name association.
