Have you ever wondered about our priorities? Things that seem so important today weren’t even on our radar screen that first little while we were saved. We were so thrilled with Christ and our new found joy and so focused on seeing others won to Christ – we wanted to do all we could possibly do to reach others. But what happened?

If you are a caring and sensitive Christian male are you a bit of a limp-wimp? Do you believe that by cultivating such virtues you will be robbed of your masculinity? Is showing kindness, shedding a tear, apologizing and worrying about offending someone a sissy thing?

Someone just emailed me and told me the biggest blight in the lives of Christian men of all age groups is the pollution of the mind. Filthy thoughts.

Have you ever met someone who doesn’t quite have their act together?  He’s not sure whether he’s a cool dude with shades or a father with children. Not sure if he’s a Demolition Derby driver or an accountant. Not sure if he’s playboy or a committed husband – a clown or a responsible Christian. Brown hair one day and bleached the next. Not sure if he’s a fashion model built for designer clothes or a serious believer with his priorities straight. Uncertain whether his raison d’être is to climb the corporate ladder or to live for eternity.
