Patient, Practical Patriarchy is not just an example of alliteration.It’s what Jesus practiced. Not all women or all people these days appreciate how practical Christianity has been throughout the ages, or how Jesus had genuine pragmatism in certain areas of His ministry. Importantly, pragmatism was not in His values, message, or beliefs, but in the […]
As we continue to look at the Prism of Manhood and the 3 societal events happening concurrently in our culture, we’re in the thick of the SBC’s vote regarding women in the pastorate. With a flood of yellow cards, a wall was built. . But was it a protective wall or a dividing wall? Protective […]
“Then Jesus said to His disciples, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest, therefore, to send out workers into His harvest field.” (Matthew 9:37-38) That was my life verse, confirmed in many ways, when I made the choice to obey God and endure seminary though I really […]
In what might seem to be a case of FAFO or “play stupid games, win stupid prizes,” more than a few churches have neglected sound doctrine and inched a bit too close into the riptide of WOKE culture wars—only to get sucked under, destroying everything– their legacy, their present witness, and their future. It does […]
Not all “muscular Christians” are muscular. Some are just Biblical Chads…buff in their theology, exercising strong principles, working out their doctrine with actions, and full of the Accountability, Authority, and Action that form the 3 sides of the Prism of Manhood. This brings me to the third of three societal events in this Prism of […]
Still thinking about the Prism of Manhood and the “Sound of Freedom“, if Indiana Jones is the manhood of Hollywood, fictional adventure, leather jacket, good-guy wins, and you were to contrast that with “Sound of Freedom“ with its godly manhood of true heroes rescuing actual children, it’s clear which of these show authentic acts of […]
Jake Meador writes about the decline of Christianity in America in a recent Atlantic article saying, “Nearly everyone I grew up with in my childhood church in Lincoln, Nebraska, is no longer Christian. That’s not unusual. Forty million Americans have stopped attending church in the past 25 years. That’s something like 12 percent of the […]
Tim Ballard is a Christian man who exemplifies the protective manhood qualities of Accountability, Action, and Authority in A Prism of Manhood. His mission is to help the least of these: children who have been kidnapped and sold into situations of slavery, abuse, torture, and organ harvesting. He’s a true hero who continues to make […]
Andrew Tate isn’t all bad. He preaches a positive message of manhood which is magnetic to men and women alike. Contrary to what popular culture would have us believe, many women (in addition to men) would prefer a culture with strong men and strong women who appreciate strong (and I’d add biological) men. The West […]
Andrew Tate is dangerous, but not for the same reasons as he is experiencing house arrest in Romania. He is charged with human-trafficking of women through social media using the “lover boy method.” No, Andrew Tate is dangerous—even more so than Mike Tyson, Kareem Abdul-Jabbar, Cassius Clay/Muhammad Ali, and Shaquille O’Neal before him. He’s more […]
