chapter 16 men in church

A look at the bewildering lack of involvement of men in the church and an encouragement to them to get involved.

In a church service some time ago, the pastor invited all the volunteers who were involved in Sunday School teaching to stand up in order to recognize them before the congregation and thank them for their service and dedication.

As the folks responded to the call and made their way to the front, it became clear in view that "all" were women. It always hits hard in the core of the Church when we see how so few men get involved in Church. Yet, looking around, often there were many men sitting in the pews.

In another Church, where a similar call was made to honour the volunteer workers involved in Sunday School, twenty people came forward of which only two were men (10%).

You might say, yes but this is Sunday School, that's not for men. Actually, men have more impact on children in their lives than women. Women bring a fundamental nurture and love but men bring the other side of life's equation – the inner strength and logic (logic as opposed to emotion). Men’s deeper and firmer voice alone commands strength in establishing authority to an audience of all ages.
