Where do you find manhood most visible and evident? If you were looking for manhood among the men of your city in which forum would you be most likely to find it?
My manhood journey began with the understanding that I had abdicated my headship as the husband within my marriage. So is marriage the place [...]

A question I get asked around the world is how women can be expected to be under the authority of their husband when the Bible says that men and women are equal. This is an important question and one that I have an answer for.
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.

Fatherless-ness is the condition of being with the true fathering which God intended. Fathering is a divine calling [...]

Everyone has their own way of assessing things. We judge all manner of things by first impression, speech, attitudes, dress, facial expression and so on. So how does God want us to be evaluated?
God’s Litmus Test
Jesus Christ explained that there is a litmus test by which we would be evaluated. That process was one that [...]

Australians celebrated Father’s Day earlier this month and so the subject of Fathers and Fatherless-ness came to my attention. Here are some of the thoughts I shared in recent weeks on the subject.

I have had the privilege of learning about time management from some well respected exponents on the subject. Yet my own time management has never been exemplary.
