Masculinity has fallen on hard times as of late. Culture values comfort over character, safety over goodness. It prefers an androgynous wisp of what God created in His own image. The spirit of the age campions a distortion who inspires no confidence, but he is quiet and uncontroversial. Fear masquerades as nobility, to the point that most won’t even make enemies of sin and the devil.

There are many reasons men of conviction are an endangered species. Credit Adam’s fall. Credit the disintegration of the home. Credit the church and lukewarm version of Christianity.

But our Good Father has a different plan for men. He salts them with grace and with fire. He does not replace them or even reform them. He redeems them and makes them like His Son. Not safe, but good.

Join us today for a special Father's Day Challenge from 1 Corinthians 16:13 & 14.
