Men, and especially younger men, have become one of our largest neglected people groups. Men are confused about what it means to be a man, much less a man of God. How did they get so confused?
They've run the wrong race (Galatians 5:7). As a result, they've conformed to the values and customs of this world (Romans 12:2). As a result, they've been taken captive by hollow and deceptive philosophy (Colossians 2:8). That yeast has worked its way through the whole batch of dough (Galatians 5:9). As a result, they've exchanged truth for a lie (Romans 1:25). And now it has become a crisis. How do we clear up this confusion?
Some men really don't know how to live their lives. They don't have the knowledge to grasp what it means to follow Christ--not really.
For others, they already know what they need to do; that's not the problem. Their problem is that they lack power to do what they already know they should do.
