CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:
As I’ve observed those around me lately – specifically male Christians – I have noticed a lot of passivity. There is an old adage that goes something like this: “Share the love of Jesus everywhere you go, and if necessary, use words”. I understand the point this is trying to make, and we should be living in a way that others take notice. However as Christian men, we should also be taking a stand for Christ – which means using words, debating/disagreeing when necessary. I’m not suggesting we go around starting arguments, but we should definitely reject the passive approach and be steadfast in how we represent ourselves. So often the Christian faith is seen as curling up in Jesus’ lap and getting coddled. Yes, Jesus does offer rest to the weary and is a place of refuge when needed, but the example that Jesus set while on this earth was not that of someone in the fetal position…he was bold in his words, strong in his position, confident. As men, I pray we are attuned to God’s word and are actively looking for opportunities to be bold for him.
