Mission Focused Men for Christ
This 20-minute weekly podcast is for Christian men who want to hear, “Well done,” from Jesus, after running the race marked out for them. Its goals are to: 1) EQUIP men to better understand from Scripture their mission, 2) ENCOURAGE men because we fail often, 3) ENERGIZE men because our spiritual tank is often on "empty," 4) EMPOWER men to stay focused on honoring Christ with their lives. The podcast presenter, Dr. Gary Yagel, is known for his practical biblical teaching and encouraging heart. A former church planter in the Presbyterian Church in America, Gary is the founder and Executive Director of Forging Bonds of Brotherhood. He is the author of Got Your Back, and Anchoring Your Child to God's Truth in a Gender-Confused Culture, (available on Amazon) and has taught Making Missional Disciples as a guest professor at Reformed Theological Seminary DC.

Summary: At this cultural moment Christian men face the extreme risk of abandoning our calling to godly manhood, because of the cultural pressure we feel every day. This pressure not to make distinctions between men and woman or their designed roles is squeezing many Christian men and leaders into the world’s mold and resulting unfaithfulness. But in this episode we study the example of Joseph, Jesus’ earthly dad, which is a step towards enabling us to be transformed as Romans 12:2 says, by the renewing of our minds to set our sights on God's vision of manhood for us.
