ABOUT THIS EPISODE
In episode 49, I will give some practical advice for men. These are the kinds of things that will be useful to men whether (1) they are single and trying to stay single like the apostle Paul, (2) single and hoping to get married, or (3) men who are already married. In other words, this practical counsel is intended to build men up no matter where they are at in life.
In this podcast, I’ll lay a biblical foundation for two categories of manliness, namely, spiritual and physical. First and foremost, Christian men are to grow in godliness. However, Christian men are also to be disciplined and to physically train themselves. So, we’ll discuss everything from cultivating spiritual discipline to having healthy testosterone levels.
What we will see is that in order for a man to thrive his life must be one of settled conviction, fixed priorities, discipline, and self-control. Manliness doesn’t happen automatically. In a world designed to make men effeminate, where you are also daily battling your own indwelling sin, you will have to put forth an intentional effort to cultivate genuine manliness.
The greatest need of our day is for more godly men to lead. God doesn’t typically bless institutions. He blesses the efforts of individual men. Currently, there is a great shortage of godly men. May God raise up many such men our day!
