MANLY TRAINING

Launched in the summer of 2015 as a community for Pastors, Church Leaders, bloggers, and TV/Radio host rock stars, Manly Training is a quickly growing collective of go-getters from all around the world who understand the importance of Training Men according to God’s design.

If you believe men are important and that men need to be trained on how to be husbands, fathers and godly men in an ungodly world, then Manly Training is for you! Subscribe to Manly Training to get updates.

I write and speak about three very important aspects of manliness that can change the world as we know it. At the very least, it will change the world as you know it.

I write and speak about being a man. Not just a man, but a Godly man according to God’s design. I also write and speak about being a husband. Yes, you guessed it… a Godly husband, according to God’s design. And when I can, I also write and speak about being a Father. A Godly father according to God’s design, of course! (As you can see, I have a one track mind).

Putting these three things together will show us an aspect of maleness that the world we live in today does not recognize or even understand. If Pastors, leaders and persons of influence that have a platform get involved in Training Men, we can positively change the family structure which is important because as you already know….”as the family goes, so goes the nation”.

I write and post twice a week on a schedule that covers all aspects of manliness. On Mondays, I will post an encouraging word on the Blog and on Wednesdays the Podcast will be available for you to listen to.

Look for these Hashtags to know what is being discussed in the blog or the podcast!

I. #RealMen covers everything about being a Godly man. From how to read your Bible and have family devotionals that will knock everyone’s socks off to financial responsibilities and everything in between.

II. #RealHusbands covers our relationships with the opposite sex. Everything from marital counseling to teaching your children a proper way to view sex. From planning a wedding to honoring your wife.

III. #RealDads covers all aspects of fatherhood from disciplining the children to adopting them. From how to spend more time with the kids and even some ideas that will help you bond with your children when the relationships have been lost or broken.

I started Manly Training when I realized that Manliness is under attack. When a young boy grows up in a fatherless home and is raised by the TV because mom has to work two jobs, that boy grows up with a distorted image of manliness. He learns to believe that the macho womanizer is the ideal of a man. Boys growing up in fatherless homes are at a higher risk of dropping out of school, becoming addicted to drugs, committing suicide, and even becoming abusive husbands and terrible fathers.

Most religious organizations and churches are doing little to nothing to minister to the men. As proof of this I offer the typical American Church which is made up of 3 times more women then men. Some churches have a men’s ministry but most do not. For those churches that do have a men’s ministry, the average age of the men that are participating is 48 years old. Men’s ministry has to start with our boys. How many churches do you know that have men’s ministries that include the kids? Train them when they are young and when they grow up, they will stay the course.

“Once upon a time, men wore the pants, and wore them well. Women rarely had to open doors and little old ladies never crossed the street alone. Men took charge because that’s what they did. But somewhere along the way, the world decided it no longer needed men. Disco by disco, latte by foamy non-fat latte, men were stripped of their khakis and left stranded on the road between boyhood and androgyny. But today, there are questions our gender-less society has no answers for. The world sits idly by as cities crumble, children misbehave and those little old ladies remain on one side of the street. For the first time since bad guys, we need heroes. We need grown-ups. We need men to put down the plastic fork, step away from the salad bar and untie the world from the tracks of complacency. It’s time to get your hands dirty. It’s time to answer the call of manhood. It’s time to WEAR THE PANTS.”
