Men of Steel

By Scott Chafee

Men today want to be Superman for their spouse, their kids and appear to have it all together. But even Superman had his vulnerability; kryptonite! This is a call to men, to become a Man of Steel, living out Proverbs 27:17, “as iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” So, we created Men of Steel…

Why is Men’s Ministry So Important?

 

Men’s ministry is so much more than just providing activities for men, like men are looking for something else to add to their schedules! Consider this information:  

 

maninchurchI was reading Leadership magazine last week and this information gripped me (click the image to the right to better read the statistics).

 

Add to this list… that eight do not find their jobs satisfying, six pay only the monthly minimum on credit cards, and the four who get divorced will affect 1 million children each year. Indeed, men are in a battle for their souls; and many don’t even realize it. Do we believe that we are immune to these problems?

 

What about discipleship? The biblical model is not outdated: You then, my son, be strong in the grace that is in Christ Jesus. And the things you heard me say in the presence of many witnesses entrust to reliable men who will also be qualified to teach others. Paul writing to Timothy, in 2 Timothy 2:1-2.

 

So, how does a disciple wannabe find a “Paul” who is willing to invest his life into another person? How can a mature believer find a “Timothy” who desires to learn and grow into an authentic follower of Christ?

 

Think of what a ministry to men can do for our community, for marriages, families and businesses… ponder, plan and pray with me about how God will work in the life of our congregation, and that a ministry specifically involving men can come to fruition. Share your ideas!
