WALK LIKE A MAN

Today males have a difficult road moving from boys to men. Our culture struggles to even define a man, much less understand the unique and specific purposes for which God made him. The Apostle Paul tells us to “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong” (1 Corinthians 16:13). Join us on a journey of manhood, walking through Scripture to find seven specific directions for men. In these we can realize the reasons for which man was created. And as we follow God’s road for manhood, we can grow to “stand firm and act like men”.

The Psalmist sings, “What is man that you are mindful of him, human beings that you care for them? You have made them a little lower than the angels and crowned them with glory and honor. You made them rulers over the works of your hands; you put everything under their feet” (Psalm 8:4-6). In other words, man is something special. But we must mature, and learn to act like men.

GET THE BOOK

Walk Like a Man is the new book that is a companion to this study and discussion series for men. Written by Gene Mason, the book details seven biblical directions for manhood. Walk Like a Man contains stories of great walks in history, as well as antidotes from Gene Mason’s life and family—these illustrate the opportunities and challenges of manhood. The book centers on God’s instruction to “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong” (1 Corinthians 16:13).

More on Manhood

Where have All the Good Men Gone?

We aren’t teaching boys what it means to be a man. They lack not only the knowledge of manhood, but any concept of the responsibilities of a man. In short, males do not know how to live and act as men.

How To Use Our Table Curriculum

Leadership Ministries provides curriculum for our Leadership Tables. The curriculum is designed to be simple, short, and easy to use, to minimize the amount of preparation required by the Table Leader.

A Man Who Walks with God

When the Bible talks about our walk, it’s equating our spiritual walk with God as something everyone can learn and do. Our bodies were made to walk, and our spirits were made to walk with God.

The Role of Manhood

Cultural pursuits have a common thread that redefines the traditional and biblical role of manhood and replaces it with a substitute devoted to self-satisfaction.

Leading a Table

The table leader is responsible for answering the question that every man attending is asking himself when he attends: “How does this hour benefit me today?” The relationships formed, discussion topic, comments made, questions asked, support and prayer given—any and all of these may be of benefit to a man.

Who Is Seated at Your Table?

No table group is like any other. We often hear of the advantages of “diversity” in the workplace, but this is most likely based on traits like skin color. The true benefit of diversity, though, is in a broad range of thoughts and experience.

When Do You Become a Man?

The Bible contains responsibilities given to man by God. In Genesis, we read that God gave man dominion over His creation, and the job of tending to it (Genesis 2:15). Spiritually, the Bible also give man clear direction in his responsibilities.
