THIS BOOK IS A DISCUSSION AROUNG THE FIRST BIG QUESTION AND PRESENTING STEP BY STEP GUIDED SOLUTIONS ON HOW TO DEVELOP A SPIRITUAL MAN FOR CHRIST AROUNG THE SECOND BIG QUESTION.THIS BOOK CONTAINS DIFFERENT OPINIONS SORROUNDING THE DISCUSION AND COMPREHENSIVE GUIDE ON HOW TO DEVELOP MEN AND MEN'S MINISTRY. THIS BOOK WILL CHALLENGE MEN TO TAKE UP THEIR GOD GIVEN POSITION IN CHURCH AND SOCIETY. IT WILL ALSO HELP PASTORS AND MEN'S LEADERS TO HAVE A TOOL TO USE TO DEVELOP A TOUGH SPIRTUAL MAN OF THE 21ST CENTUARY FOR CHRIST JESUS .IN HERE I WILL BE DEALING WITH MANY ISSUES THAT HAS CAUSED MEN NOT TO BE IN CHURCH AS WELL A S HELPING TO PUT UP A PRACTICAL PLAN THAT WILL HELP TO BRING MEN TO CHURCH AND DEVELOP THEM. THIS BOOK ALSO CONTAINS IMFOMATION HOW YOU AS A MAN CAN DEVELOP SPIRITUALLY . IN THIS BOOK ALSO THEY ARE DISCUSSIONS BY ANONYMOUS PEOPLE WHO HAVE VOICED OUT WHY THEY THINK MEN ARE FEWER IN THE CHURCH. I WILL QUOTE FEW HERE BUT READ OVER 10 CONTRIBUTORS IN THE BOOK.This discussion was initiated by Bishop Gary Hawkins, Sr, The question he posed was "Lack of Men in Church. Why? and anonymous one said, "It is feminization of the church", some experts claim. "The churches are run nowadays in a way that soothes female ears more than male ears, that caters more to women's needs than men's." That sounds sensible at first glance, but is it the whole truth? And it matters. God's heart is for both males and females to love Him and live for Him. According to this "feminization" theory, men do not like singing love songs to God, flower arrangements in the church, emotional preaching? Etc. And little more than the feminized men stay in church, as those are the only ones not too upset with things like this. Can this be the whole truth? King Solomon, for example, wrote and sang love songs, some of which are collected in the Bible as "Song of Songs". His father, David, sang of God's love and wrote Psalms. Neither of the two strikes me as effeminate. And today's male, love-song-singing stars? Well, by what the tabloids write about some of them, it would not seem pansies are the only men who sing love songs. AND ANONYMOUS PASTOR ALSO SAID, "I believe there is a lack of men in the church because they are not being spoken to. The messages going forth from pulpits these days really do not address the basic needs of men. Men want to and need to feel like leaders. Men want to feel as though they have decision-making power and can influence change. Of late, the society we live in and even in the homes, men's "natural" right to live out these roles have been stripped. You have talk show hosts, actresses, politicians, and even preachers telling the world that a woman doesn't need a man to survive, a woman doesn't need a man to raise a child, and a woman doesn't need a man to be complete. GOD never intended for man or woman to be alone. Yet, the value of men has been subjected to a trivial status. You want men to come back to church? Teach them that they have value and worth in their homes, on their jobs, and in their communities. Then, you'll see a renaissance take place in the church." THE CONVERSATION IN THIS BOOK IS HEATED, ANONYMOURS 7 SAID,"some things that are complex have simple answers. I believe your question can be answered in 2 words: Shame and Pride. Some men are shameful to confess and praise in front of other women. They do not want others thinking "Dag, what did he do in his life-I thought he had it together " Even if no one in the congregation is thinking of them in that manner. Some men, think praising God in public is too "feminine". SO GOD HAS TOLD TO SETTLE THIS MATTER BY PROVIDING ANSWERS AND MORE IN THIS BOOK: DR JOEL SOKO AND PROPHETESS KALAY PILLAY- SOKO.
