Book Review: Manhood Restored by Pastor Eric Mason

May 16, 2013

There is a charge that has been levied against the modern Church for at least the last two decades. It’s a claim that attacks the integrity of Church, exposes a massive weakness, and is about as politically incorrect as they come. Sadly though, I don’t believe the Church as a whole has taken it seriously.

The indictment is that the Church is too feminine. In our modern pro-feminine culture a claim like this is often taken as absurd or even offensive. Like it or not – the claim is true, the Church is guilty, and the proof is in the pudding or rather the pews.

What is a leadership development plan?

So what is a leadership development plan anyway? It really is a fair question. Most guys have never seen or heard of a leadership development plan. The concept is really as straightforward as it sounds; it’s a plan to develop leaders. These can be used either by an organization to develop its leaders as a whole - which is more of an overall business strategy - or they can be used on an individual basis to develop the leadership skills of a specific person.

Don’t be fooled into thinking that love as the root of leadership is obvious. You can’t simply glance at this concept and check it off your list because you think you believe it. You need to do more than just believe this.

I was fourteen years old when God’s love finally made sense to me. The light bulb came on when I realized that Jesus’ torturous death was actually God’s greatest gift of love and that He did it for me.

For God so loved the world… that he led us to salvation. He did it at his own painful expense. In the ultimate act of servant leadership God led an obstinate and rebellious people right to the most important, beneficial, and even painful place they needed to be. His love led us and himself to the cross. (continue reading)

Fathers, do you know the power of your words?

The LORD has blessed me with three children and an amazing wife. I am constantly shocked at how my kids crave my attention. In the spirit of honesty I will share that I sometimes even get overwhelmed by it. It can be stressful when a two, four and five year old are all trying to get you to notice them. It can be difficult at times to keep that stress from coming out in harsh or critical words and tones.

The truth is that I'm not perfect and there are times when my words are harsh. You aren’t perfect either. So what’s a dad to do?

We need to understand the power of our words. We need to understand that as Proverbs says our tongue can hurt as bad anything else we can use to inflict pain. When we make a mistake we need to realize it. We need to ask for forgiveness, from God and our families.

Most importantly we need to flip the field. (Read more)

About this ministry

My name is Ryan Reeves and I founded Men of Jesus in 2007 because I am passionate about calling Christian men to follow Jesus and lead our world. My hope is that this ministry can give men practical tools and resources that equip them to lead. Many of the leadership skills and experiences I share come from over fifteen years of retail and telecommunications management and five years of men's ministry. I have been married to my wife Amber for 8 years and we have three awesome children, Grace (5), Luke (4), and Beau (2).
