being a real man


"Men, let me plead with you: The greatest fight of your life is not lust. You may think it is, but it isn’t. The greatest fight of your life will be rejecting the passivity that has infected your heart since the fall... being a man according to God’s Word is hard. Being a boy who shaves is pretty easy. But being a real man requires self-sacrifice. Your life is laid down for the good of your wife, for the good of your children."

Matt Chandler, The Mingling of Souls
