Reclaim What God Intended for Your Manhood

A man will only gain the power to live free once he has found the purpose worthy of his death.

What if the most dangerous thing in our lives as men is a desire for safety? What if the reason men feel so unfulfilled is that we are spending so much time trying to fill ourselves? What if the freedom you long for is actually locked behind the sacrifices you are running from?

The world is lying to us. Everywhere a man looks, the messaging has been carefully orchestrated to keep us in bondage: “Just do what makes you feel good. Pain is evil. Responsibility is a burden. Sacrifice is bad.” And yet, Jesus said, “For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it.”

In Masculinity on Mission, you will learn:

• How modern man has been emasculated
• Why Christian men start out passionate, but slowly slip back into sin
• What is your purpose as a man according to the Scriptures
• Why you must have enemies
• How to pursue a woman and love her well
• How to serve God, family, and country
• What it means to be a man on mission for Christ

Join Mark Ballenger as he unpacks the Scriptures to provide men with a biblical blueprint for getting their hearts back. After each easy-to-read chapter, there are reflection questions and assignments that can be used for individuals or small groups.
God has an important mission for each man. Sadly, few men experience the joy of responding to this call. Don’t let your life slip by. We are here only for a moment. Be on mission.

John 12:24-26, “Truly, truly, I say to you, unless a grain of wheat falls into the earth and dies, it remains alone; but if it dies, it bears much fruit. Whoever loves his life loses it, and whoever hates his life in this world will keep it for eternal life. If anyone serves me, he must follow me; and where I am, there will my servant be also. If anyone serves me, the Father will honor him.”
