The Introduction to the Will of Men Series<\/h1>\n
<\/div>\n
Will\u2019s father walked away. His mother\u2019s love was slipping out of reach. Agni knew exactly how to use both wounds.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Will grows up longing for a father who was never there and a mother whose trauma leaves him searching for the love he needs. Isabella offers a glimpse of what it feels like to be chosen. August, known as Agni, offers an escape from the pain\u2014and draws Will toward a darkness he does not yet recognize.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
Caught between Isabella\u2019s love and Agni\u2019s deception, Will enters a wilderness shaped by grief, anger, and lies about his worth. To find his way out, he must confront the father wounds he buried, the love he never received, and an enemy who knows how to turn his deepest needs against him.<\/div>\n
<\/div>\n
The Wilderness Within: The Origins of Will is a psychological and spiritual journey through a young man\u2019s fight for his identity. At his lowest point, Will discovers that Christ is still reaching for him. His healing begins when he opens his heart to the Way, the Truth, and the Life.<\/div>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
