True masculinity is rooted in protection and service. Any man incorporated in the principles of Christ is able to bring peace and healing to a chaotic world. Through humbly serving God in prayer and worship, a father and husband serves his wife and children in love and protects them from evil.
We need men to focus on their families and to provide an example, to stand up and be counted as the Christian men that we are, to not be afraid to use the word ‘Jesus’ in a daily conversation, to bring our faith into our daily lives.
This is an era of absent men.
It takes a brave man to be charitable and to put his family first. Because society tells us to put yourself first. To be a steward, to be a warrior for Jesus, a man must defend and protect his family. Are you loving your family and raising your sons to be honorable men, to love women, to defend women? Are you raising your sons and daughters to be chaste and—if called to marriage—to seek a spouse for lifelong marriage? Are we open to God’s gift of children and not mangled in the false promises of contraception and abortion?
It’s time for brave hearts.
