Men
Uniquely gifted (by God), uniquely tempted (by the enemy)
For every 10 men in the average church:
• 9 will have kids who leave the church
• 8 will not find their jobs satisfying
• 6 will pay monthly minimum on their credit cards
• 5 will have a major problem with pornography
• 4 will get divorced – affecting 1,000,000 children each year
• Only 1 will have a biblical worldview
• All 10 will struggle to balance family and work |

A Man’s Obligation in Marriage:
1. Own and understand headship “For the husband is the head of the wife as Christ is the head of the church, his body, of which he is the Savior.” Ephesians 5:23
2. Love your wife with a Christ-like love “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her to make her holy, cleansing her by the washing with water through the word, and to present her to himself as a radiant church without stain or wrinkle or any other blemish but holy and blameless. In this same way, husbands ought to love their wives as their own bodies. He who loves his wife loves himself. After all, no one ever hated his own body but feed and cares for it just as Christ does the church—for we are members of his body. ‘For this reason a man will leave his father and mother and be united to his wife, and the two will become one flesh.’” Ephesians 5:25-31
