A Tim Ballard Update

Remember how I described Tim Ballard’s Sound of Freedom as displaying manhood in action as one of 3 societal events in the Prism of Manhood?  I was surprised by how suddenly everything turned on Ballard, he was out of an organization he founded, every search was instantly negative, and I didn’t understand.  Now I know why.

Apparently, allegations arose (to a tabloid) from within the Mormon Church that he had been inappropriate.  Now that the charges have been dismissed, he issued a statement that you’ll find here:  https://thepostmillennial.com/breaking-tim-ballard-speaks-out-against-false-allegations-leveled-at-him-after-announcing-senate-run

In his statement, he repeatedly refers to being in good standing in the Latter-Day Saints (Mormon) church. He talks about believing in Jesus and I’ll leave discussion of Mormonism for another day and time.  Except, I will say that if Andrew Tate is a Muslim lifestyle evangelist to young men, Tim Ballard is a Mormon lifestyle evangelist.

It does not diminish my appreciation for what these men are doing, attempting to restore masculinity and manhood, but I look at the Evangelical Christian world and wonder, where are our lifestyle evangelists?  Oh yeah, debating about whether a woman can be called by the title of “pastor,” and we’ll look at that vote by the SBC again shortly in our Prism of Manhood.

Questions for further thought:

Evangelical world, what are you doing?

Have you lost your first love?

Revelation 2:1 “To the angel of the church in Ephesus write: These are the words of him who holds the seven stars in his right hand and walks among the seven golden lampstands. 2 I know your deeds, your hard work and your perseverance. I know that you cannot tolerate wicked people, that you have tested those who claim to be apostles but are not, and have found them false.  3 You have persevered and have endured hardships for my Name, and have not grown weary.  4 Yet I hold this against you: You have forsaken the love you had at first.  5 Consider how far you have fallen! Repent and do the things you did at first. If you do not repent, I will come to you and remove your lampstand from its place.” (Revelation 2:1-5)

Lifestyle evangelists for many other groups are gaining an audience. Where are you?
