Braveheart...the next generation deserves better
The Edge magazine pulls no punches this month, check it out - good job John. So here I go.
"The real duty of real men goes beyond 'live and let live'. We are mandated to protect widows, orphans, the alien, and all those who lack sustaining relationships. As long as men and boy fail to be protective, they will fall prey to the typical male sexual fantasy that sells porn mags and films...
.
...The only real solution is to teach young men that the source of their power is the nurturing and protecting image of God created within them." E. James Wilder
We're meant to slay the dragon, win the war, protect and provide.
David was at home while his buds were fighting the war - David was supposedly living royally and got screwed up royally. Adultery, decepton/lies, murder - ouch....
This could me one of the more important things that I have ever written. I covet the next generation, but OHHHHHHHHHHHH do I covet the next generation and my generation of males that they would get of the bench and into the arena - realizing our purpose, potential, personhood in Christ Jesus.
When we do, watch out! The next generation deserves better!
