Book cover for The Marvelous Pigness of Pigs: Respecting and Caring for All God's Creation
We’re the first culture in the world that routinely eats things that have never lived. In spiritual parlance, we’re ingesting things that are an abomination to our bodies—and then requesting prayer for the ailments that result. God set up ...more

“What love needs to grow, more than incredibly romantic gestures or grand displays of courage, is commitment. Plain and simple. Keep pursuing your muse, that woman who captured your heart in a single moment and refused to let go. You must never stop the chase, even when it looks like you’ve gotten what you sought. Commit to a lifetime pursuit of her, and she will always take you deeper than you could go on your own.”
― John Lovell, The Warrior Poet Way: A Guide to Living Free and Dying Well

“You’re bored, not exhausted; apathetic, not overwhelmed. You’ve got to get your ambition back. Otherwise, the slightest problem or mishap is going to derail you. Part of learning to dance is building up the muscles to take those basic steps.”
― John Lovell, The Warrior Poet Way: A Guide to Living Free and Dying Well

“When you vicariously live through the heroes on your screens and get your taste of victory from a favorite sports team, your ambition is being robbed.”
― John Lovell, The Warrior Poet Way: A Guide to Living Free and Dying Well

“When you treat your wife the way you treat the guys, you lose her. Contrary to the current messaging of our backward culture, a woman is different from a man. She needs you to be the warrior on the battlefield of life and a poet in the home. Learning to strike this balance is difficult but, again, worth it.”
― John Lovell, The Warrior Poet Way: A Guide to Living Free and Dying Well

“My purpose is to love and serve Jesus Christ with every ounce of my being. From this source comes a love for people, a motive for protecting them, as well as a deep and fulfilling worldview, not to mention the ground rules for all relationships. The warrior needs more than war to live a happy life. So I ask: What are you living for? What will you fight for? Are you ever concerned that even as you fight, you could lose the reason you do it all? What then? We need a purpose, and that purpose must be bigger than ourselves or the love of our lives. The warrior is helped by a muse in their journey toward purpose, because she can serve as a means of drawing out who he really is as well as urging him to climb higher.”
― John Lovell, The Warrior Poet Way: A Guide to Living Free and Dying Well
