\u201cA man sees what needs to be done and does it!\u201d Ever heard that quote? Christ set the greatest example for men to follow. Jacob shows us what that can look like in daily living.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scripture<\/h3>\n\n\n\n

Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.\u00a0 Let all that you do be done in love.\u00a0<\/em><\/p>\n1 Corinthians 16:13-14<\/em><\/cite><\/blockquote>\n\n\n\n

The culture we live in is becoming increasingly \u201cman\u201d absent.  Over 40% of children today grow up in homes with one parent and 34% of those grow up in a home where only mom is present.  I want to first of all say thank you to moms for putting in long hard hours to care for your children well.  Wives, if you\u2019re reading this\u2026pass this along to your husbands!  They need to be reminded of how important their role is in the family and in raising your children.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Is it any wonder the majority of boys growing up in our culture have no idea what it looks like to be and live like a man?  Thankfully for us, we have a great example\u2026Christ!  Let\u2019s look at a few ways we can teach our boys what it looks like to be a MAC (Man After Christ).<\/p>\n\n\n\n
