| Fishers of Men for Jesus Ministries has built a strong and balanced Christian Men's Ministry. In particular, a big issue for men is battling pride. Pride tells us to be a lone ranger. It gently reminds us of our own self-worth and how isolation and self-teaching is far more impressive and beneficial. Don't give into this false thinking! Unfortunately, for many men, this is how they view the investment of committing to a men's Bible study. With a men's Bible study, one should expect a raw, under-engineered atmosphere where the Bible teacher, leader, facilitator or author hammers home God's truth dealing specifically with men's issues. There is a mass amount of unapplied truth given directly from scripture that isn't being lived out in men today. Guys are blending with the culture, rather that battling for obedience as God's men. Men are allowing their eyes and minds to wander into areas of lust and fantasizing. And, for many men, standing for integrity in the workplace when everybody else is proudly walking on the unethical road is a non-issue. Men need to chase truth and combat the lie. In today's world, men are spending more time at work, on hobbies, watching TV, and reading the paper than accepting their role and gift as a father, husband, and leader. · Christian Mentoring - Why Do Men Flee? "Christian Mentoring" is a term that drives many men full-speed in the opposite direction! Why does the term Christian Mentoring make men so weak in the knees? It's probably a little different for each guy, but speaking in generalities, here are a few ideas: · · A man's pride tells him to journey alone. · · A man's heart tells him to remain quiet. · · A man's mind tells him nobody will understand. · · A man's emotions tell him to keep it under control. Maybe you can relate to these. Maybe you're already feeling a little uneasy reading this website. Let us assure you, great gain comes when you show up and realize the discomfort you feel is a sign that something good is happening. Our Men's Ministry has built a framework of eight biblically-balanced benchmarks for a healthy ministry for men.
