Last rites.

I'm off to Thailand and will be back in two weeks so this is my last blog until then and I'm closing the chapter on the men thing.
I don't want to go back to the man "must assert his role of head of the household thing." Husband's love your wives and wives submit to your own husbands, are two sides of the one coin. It's a mutual thing. I defer to Priscilla in her areas of gifting and expertise and she to me. I decide the issues of world peace, the environment and poverty. While she decides the minor things like where we live, what we spend our money on and what I do for a living....
Seriously though, we men have got to take responsibility for our own lives. Start making good choices about our families, our jobs and the things that are affecting us. How many would choose a lower standard of living for a better quality of life?
Let's meet with other men and start talking about these things in a safe place. Let's make our churches a place where men can bring friends without being embarresed. Pray about it! I think its' a safe assumption that if we can't talk to God about it then we're not talking to anyone else.
Read Spephen Hill's comment and statement on manhood. It's very insightful. Talk soon.
