We need men in our churches

On Saturday, Aug. 20, and Saturday, Aug. 27, I visited with our Holston Conference men and others at "Calling All Men." We had a great time ... learned a lot and celebrate the transforming power of Jesus.

Statistics tell us that if we win a man to Christ -- if the man is married -- we will about 90 to 95 percent of the time also win the wife and children. We also know that men typically come to Christ as a result of a personal witness and not a corporate witness.

This is why we need men in our churches to begin to personally witness to other men. It is imperative that today's church understand the different spiritual needs of men if we are to win men to Christ.
