What Does it Mean to Be a Man? – Mark Batterson Part 1

You can become the man that God has designed you to be. In this two day Focus on the Family broadcast, Jim Daly and John Fuller talk with Pastor Mark Batterson on what it means to be a man of God and how dads can teach these truths to their sons.

He gives an overview of what virtue is and looks at the attributes of tough love, will power, raw passion and moral courage by taking a deep dive into the lives of some of history’s greatest men. On day two he discusses how we can make men out of boys by developing a family vision statement to guide our families, and how he personally led his sons through a ‘Year of Discipleship’ and a ‘Rite of Passage.’ This program is a powerful reminder that as churches we need to come alongside men and help them understand that God has called them to rise up as men.
