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.

Authority—the Biblical vs Cultural Views
Summary
The strains of egalitarianism and cultural Marxism which identify biblical authority structures as themselves, “evil,” are infecting our loved ones, causing them to resist the rule of law. They need a biblical understanding of God-established authority in civil society, the church, and the home despite the flaws of those filling those God-designed roles. This episode reveals a surprising truth: God has ordained leadership in civil society, the church, and the home for the purpose of leaders giving their followers love.
For Further Prayerful Thought:
- How would you defend the statement, “Though sometimes authority structures are filled by corrupt individuals, undermining God’s ordained authority structures in civil society, the church, and the home is evil, because those structure’s purpose is LOVE?”
- In your own words, why does sacrificial love issue from a pure heart?
- In your own words, why does sacrificial love issue from a clean conscience?
- In your own words, why does sacrificial love issue from a sincere faith?
