• Genesis 2:15 reveals our mandate to work and watch over God's creation with our strength
• Cultivation means creating, building, and helping things flourish under God's direction
• Meaningful work in a fallen world is painfully difficult but ultimately rewarding
• Men must first cultivate a healthy sense of self before cultivating other areas
• Understanding your behaviors requires archaeological soul-work to uncover patterns
• Listen intentionally to those around you, especially your wife's perspective on your strengths
• Let truth be your guide: you are made in God's image with unique gifts and talents
• Your role as a watchman starts with ensuring your soul is growing in Christ
• This calling will leave us tired but fulfilled, "wrung out for the glory of God"
