Dave Nelson is the host of this show - so we thought, maybe you could hear about his need for God before he interviewed others! In short, Dave is a Catholic, man of God, a father, former high school and college football captain, near death survivor, ECAC award of valor recipient, salesman and business owner, former mental resilience teacher, fundraiser, and a lover of people.  He is a person broken without God, but made whole with Him, and for Him, knowing that God takes all broken things and makes them even more beautiful, more glorious, and more fruitful when we surrender to His love - but Dave knows he Needs Him, as he often throughout his day prays, simply, “Lord, I love you, and I need You.’ Amen. Please enjoy getting to know Dave more as we kickoff A Man's Need for God podcast.  (A very special thank you to CatholicTV for allowing us to use their podcast studio at no cost - this wouldn't be possible without their help! Thank God.)

What Men Live By and Other Tales (Version 2) Leo Tolstoy This is a collection of 4 stories by Leo Tolstoy, all dealing with the question asked in the title of the first story: What Does Man Live By. What is the purpose of life? How are we expected to live with others? What is all of this about anyway? And the answer to that question by the way is answered in a style that is uniquely and perfectly Tolstoy's. But these are not essays, but well written stories that tell about real people as they live real lives. The first story is broken into two parts and but is is read by the same person. Also the last story, How Much Land Does A Man Need has been broken into two sections for easier reading and it is also read by the same person for continuity and ease of understanding. The two stories in the middle, are much shorter but just as fascinating. Tolstoy was a deeply spiritual man and he always brought out the spiritual side of all the myriad questions he dealt with. (Summary by phil chenevert) Acres of Diamonds (Version 2) Russell Conwell One of the most requested motivational lectures of all time. "I say that you ought to get rich, and it is your duty to get rich ... The men who get rich may be the most honest men you find in the community. Let me say here clearly ... ninety-eight out of one hundred of the rich men of America are honest. That is why they are rich. That is why they are trusted with money. That is why they carry on great enterprises and find plenty of people to work with them. It is because they are honest men. ." The central idea of the work is that one need not look elsewhere for opportunity, achievement, or fortune—the resources to achieve all good things are present in one's own community; look in your own backyard for those acres of diamonds. This theme is developed by an introductory anecdote, credited by Conwell to an Arab guide, about a man who wanted to find diamonds so badly that he sold his property and went off in futile search for them. The new owner of his home discovered that a rich diamo Ambassador Morgenthau's Story Henry Morgenthau Ambassador Morgenthau’s memoirs of his years in the service of the United States in Constantinople, (today Istanbul), are an important primary historical resource for the study of the dissolution of the Ottoman Empire and the Armenian Genocide. During this genocide, approximately 1,500,000 Armenians living in Anatolia were murdered in an attempt to rid Turkey of its non-Turkish populations. Mr. Morgenthau left Turkey a frustrated man, having done all that he was able through diplomatic circles to halt the murders, to no avail.Today, Turkey’s official position is that their attempt to annihilate the Armenian population in Turkey was not a genocide. In 2010, the American House Foreign Relations Committee passed House Resolution 252, officially recognizing the Armenian Genocide.“If we hope to stop future genocides we need to admit to those horrific acts of the past. When Hitler had to convince his cohorts that the world would let them get away with it, he turned to them and said, ‘Who t David Mozaffari David Mozaffari Hi!
