Dr. Patrick Morley has been the president or managing partner of 59 companies and partnerships, many around the commercial real estate industry.
After building one of Florida’s 100 largest privately held companies by the age of 35, he thought, “There must be more to life than this. There’s gotta be.”
Motivated by his own search for meaning, purpose, and a deeper relationship with God, he started a weekly Bible study in a bar with a handful of guys in 1986—a study that now reaches thousands of men around the world every week.
Inspired and challenged by those studies and conversations, he wrote The Man in the Mirror, named one of the 100 most influential Christian books of the twentieth century.
The deep hunger he saw in men for a more authentic life led him to found Man in the Mirror at his kitchen table—a global men’s ministry impacting thousands of churches and millions of men.
Widely regarded as a leading authority on men’s issues, Patrick has written 23 books and more than 750 articles—all focused on helping men solve their most compelling problems. With over 7,000,000 copies in print, his award-winning books have been translated into numerous languages and printed in 48 countries.
He earned a PhD in leadership and organizational change, a master’s degree from Reformed Theological Seminary, a marketing degree from the University of Central Florida, and completed postgraduate studies at Harvard Business School and Oxford University. He and his wife live in Winter Park, Florida. They have two married children and five grandchildren.
He speaks and writes to audiences throughout the world, sharing stories and insights gleaned from personal experience and lifelong learning.
I’m Patrick Morley. But everyone calls me Pat. My passion is helping you make sense of your life through my writing and teachings. You will find a link to some of my credentials below, but first I’d like to speak to you from my heart.I have listened to you, and I understand. As men, we all want the same things. We want our lives to count and make a difference. We want to succeed and have great relationships. We want to be great husbands and fathers. We want to be fully alive.What we want is so clear. But equally clear are the soul-crushing obstacles, blows, sorrows, and even defeats that block the way. I can relate — I still face all these things too.Millions of men, just like you, have used my books and teachings to take their “next steps” — to figure out who they are, what their lives are about, and become fully alive in Christ.Today, I feel fully alive in Christ. Here’s God’s promise: You can too. So, whether you’re just starting your journey, still investigating, have been off track for a while and want to reconnect with God, or you’re going strong and want to stay that way — I would be honored to walk with you for a season as a fatherly figure, or perhaps an older brother.
