Men are hurting in so many ways

Men need compassion, a helping hand, and occasionally a shoulder to lean on. Men can support one another. Men are called to stand in the gap for each other armed with the "sword of the spirit" and courage. 
What can you do to help a brother?

How do you do it?

Where can you get help in time of need?
Where do I start?

These are a few of the questions you should be asking. No one should have to bear it alone.

God called holy men to courageously stand in the gap.  Ez 22:30

Later, God asked Isaiah, "Who shall I send?" Isaiah's response was, "Lord, send me!"

Today, God has committed unto us the Ministry of Reconciliation, and we are appointed Ambassadors for Christ. Many of our brethren, and we ourselves are under constant attack. Men need to stand shoulder to shoulder to encourage and support one another. Let us explore together what the Bible says and how to apply it. As men for Christ, we can stand together.

  1. Thank you for creating this blog. Yes, men do need help and also men can help one another.. from their strengths. I can lift someone, in their weak areas, while they can come alongside me in mine. We all have something to share and we ALL need help at times. Thank you for planting a seed by creating this blog.

    How can we individually help another? Believe it or not, the FIRST step is to simply LISTEN. How can you meet a need, or solve a problem, if you haven't listened and found the problem. So, the FIRST step has to be relationships. Form a relationship, develop a bond, show that you can be trusted and others will allow you to hear and help.

    Relationships are key. Thank you again for giving men a forum.

  2. I myself don't believe that all men are strong. They have their weakness too and they need help at times and they also hurt inside.
