Like the epic battle of David vs. Goliath, Christian men also face giants in their lives. Inspired by David’s faith and courage, we will face three of these major giants; the inner giant of male self-doubt, the giant of the male sex drive, and our giant culture of self-centered entitlement. With faith in God and the support of other men, we can conquer these giants instead of freezing (numbing out), avoiding, or running away. We choose the heroic over fear. This men's workshop will follow David into battle and overcome our own giants today.
Boys are destined to become men. Yet many boys never arrive—and remain boys, mama’s boys, and play boys for a lifetime. This men's class or men's workshop gives parents and churches the keys to raise their boys into a Christian manhood of responsibility, commitment, courage and love. Topics include: How our Peter Pan Culture Keeps Boys from Growing Up, The Differences between Mothering and Smothering Your Sons, What Boys Need from Fathers to Become Men, A Christian Rite of Passage from Boyhood to Manhood.
