About this sermon
Every man struggles with PELF — whether he realizes it or not. PELF, an old English word meaning ill-gotten gains, isn’t just about money. It’s about anything pursued as an end rather than a means. In this episode of 13 Minutes, we explore the original meaning of The Guy in the Glass (1934) by Dale Wimbrow, the poem that has guided generations of men toward integrity and self-reflection. We discuss: • Why chasing money or success for its own sake never ends • How men rationalize crossing moral and ethical lines • The “decimal chase” — the endless pursuit of just one more • What it really means to face the man in the mirror and live honestly If you’ve ever told yourself “just a little more,” this episode is for you. Learn how to pursue success and wealth as a means to live a good, meaningful life, not as an end in itself. #TheGuyInTheGlass #PELF #MensWork #MensDevelopment #MasculineIntegrity #MoneyAndMeaning #PurposeDrivenLife #MensPodcast #13MinutesPodcast #SelfDeception #ChasingSuccess #IntegrityMatters #MensGrowth #InnerWork #MeaningOverMoney
