New Man Magazine recently featured an article about what's wrong
with most men's discipleship efforts:
"We know that as go the men, so go the marriages, families, churches, communities and culture. Today these institutions are in crisis because men are in crisis...Men are largely disengaged, unchallenged,under-led, discouraged, and disconnected.

Recently 1,800 pastors from across the country gathered in Minneapolis for the annual "Desiring God Conference for Pastors".. This year's theme was "God, Manhood & Ministry: Building Men for the Body of Christ". John Piper, Sr. Pastor of Bethleham Baptist Church and founder of DG Ministries, spoke on "The Value of Masculine Ministry" and he used the life of the great 19th century churchman J. C. Ryle as his case study. Ryle was once called "the frank and manly Mr. Ryle." Click HERE for the complete video and the transcript of this powerful and callenging talk.
As Go Men, So Go Marriages, Kids, Churches, Culture
Founding Pastor of the Journey Church in St. Louis and author of the book Church Planter, Darrin Patrick gives us a sobering account in this video of what happens when men go missing in the church and older men fail to reach out and connect with the younger generation of men.
Patrick also writes in his book, "...we have a couple of generations of males who were not raised by men and the result is a prolonged male adolescence. In a culture where the influence of godly men is desperately needed, this void results in a legitimate cultural crisis".
