In part 1 of this topic I pointed out that women are known historically for being contentious. That means that some women tend to say things that make for argument and strife.
“It is better to dwell in a corner of the housetop, than with a brawling woman in a wide house.” Proverbs 21:9

Being a “Man” challenges us at the very core of Western values. Our culture teaches us to look out for Number One, and to seek things which will please ourselves. Self-Interest, then, is a core value in Western culture.
So God’s intention that men live by Sacrificial Purpose cuts across our instincts and cultural training.
However, the [...]

A true understanding of what it is to be a “Man” has been damaged in today’s feminised and secularised Western world.
Pastor Chris Field addresses that problem, helping to clear away the confusion and point to the Biblical case for real men to step up to the Calling which God has on their lives.

The Problem
The Bible clearly teaches that women are made to take [...]

Freedom is something that westerners take for granted. Consequently we don’t really know what it is. And consequently many Bible truths remain undiscovered, because we do not have a frame of reference for them.
The Son will set you free. The Truth will set you free. Stand strong in your freedom. A Christian slave is God’s [...]

A lovely young couple are currently expecting their first child. I recently felt to encourage the young dad to speak to his unborn baby. I asked if he spoke to the baby in the womb. He replied that his wife spoke to the baby at times, but he didn’t do it.
That prompted me to reflect [...]
