You Must Utterly Destroy Sin

Have you ever found yourself stuck in the same routine, day in and day out? I know I have. It’s so easy to fall into a pattern where we feel safe, comfortable, and in control. Our comfort zones are like warm, cozy blankets that we wrap around ourselves, protecting us from the unknown. But as men of God, we are not called to live a life of comfort and complacency. We are called to be warriors, ready to step into…

Transitioning from Participant to Leader of the Faith

Every Christian’s journey is unique, both from their starting point before salvation, and then all the way through where God ultimately takes them in their walk with Jesus. What I’m going to focus on in this article is where Christian men are after receiving Jesus Christ as their Lord and Savior. Many believers are “on fire” for Jesus for a short bit and then quickly transform into lukewarm participants in the faith. However, to truly embrace and embody the teachings…

How Pride Can Ruin Christian Male Leadership

“When pride comes, then comes disgrace, but with the humble is wisdom.” – Proverbs 11:2 [ESV] Pride is a powerful and insidious force that can undermine the effectiveness of Christian male leadership in a variety of ways. At its core, pride is all about self-aggrandizement, seeking to elevate oneself above others and to place one’s own interests and desires above the needs and well-being of others. When pride is allowed to take root in the hearts and minds of Christian…

Making a Lasting Impact: Why Discipling Others is Crucial for Every Christian

As a follower of Jesus Christ, I firmly believe that one of the most critical pursuits we can undertake is discipling others. Discipling is all about pouring into people’s lives, aiding them in their spiritual growth, and empowering them to positively impact the world for the Kingdom of God. It is not merely a suggestion but a royal summons that Jesus has extended to each of us. The Apostle Paul’s message to Timothy offers a clear example of the importance…

Why Aren’t More Men Involved in Men’s Ministry?

In the 5+ years that I’ve been directly involved with men’s ministry leadership, it’s often disheartening to see a general lack of interest from Christian men in any type of spiritual focus on them. Books have been written on it (Pastoring Men by Patrick Morley is an excellent read), and men’s ministry proponents are regularly confounded about why men aren’t engaged more. Often, the average Christian man sees that attending a Sunday service is adequate…that is if he even makes…

How To Be Sexually Pure As A Man

Sexual purity is an essential aspect of any man’s life, and it is a concept that is emphasized throughout the Bible.

But anything that deviates from that is outside of what God intended and fits in the broad category of sexual immorality.  Sexual immorality includes any sexual activity outside of marriage, including pornography, premarital sex, adultery, homosexuality, and…
