Iron Sharpens Iron

Hey Boys,

I’m back whether you like it or not!

It’s been awhile since we finished Chasing the Daylight. Time for some more heart stirrings and the sound of iron sharpening iron. Here we go...

I am going to work us through a book called “Every Man, God’s Man” by Stephen Arterburn and Kenny Luck and i know are definitely going to be worked!


Excerpt: (Chapter 1- Bogged Down in the Red Zone)

“During the past several years, I have witnessed men commit to becoming God’s man through Every man Ministries. I’ve found that it’s not about asking guys to do more; it’s about asking them to be more...

Doing more puts a man in control.
Being more puts God in control.

Doing more is a safe style for men
Being more is risky.

Doing more implies there is an end to it.
Being more is a process - fluid and unpredictable.

Doing more lets a man pick the changes he needs to make.
Being more allows God to reveal the changes a man needs to make.

Doing more requires trying harder.
Being more relies on training humbly.

Doing more engenders spiritual pride.
being more produces humility through surrender.

Doing more is about correcting behavior patterns.
Doing more is about connecting with God’s character.

Doing more attaches to the public persona.
being more reaches the private self - the man God wants to reach.”


Prayer:
God we ask to prepare our hearts as we go through this book to become the men of God you created us to be each and every moment. Prepare our hearts and minds to be open to hearing you and others as we journey forward. Amen
