Synopsis

Wild Places invites men into the wilderness to discover rest and a deeper connection with oneself and God. On his father’s back, a boy takes his first steps into nature, beginning a lifelong adventure of faith, healing, and discovery.

Blending memoir, practical outdoor wisdom, spiritual reflection, and encouragement, Wild Places addresses the quiet crises of modern men, including burnout, disconnection, and loss of purpose. Through stories of business collapse, fatherhood, and time spent in the wild, Matt shows how God’s creation becomes a sanctuary for healing and clarity. Each chapter weaves outdoor experiences with Scripture and hard-earned spiritual insight, offering both inspiration and guidance.

From stillness beside a mountain stream to the laughter of a shared adventure, and through quiet moments in a local garden to the transformative work of forgiveness, Wild Places shows men how to listen deeply, rest fully, and step into the wholeness God intended.

Grounded in honest storytelling and rooted in faith, Wild Places is more than reflection; it is a call to action. Step into the wild not to escape, but to be renewed, restored, and equipped to live with purpose, courage, and faith.
