- On this episode today I’m tackling one of the biggest issues for men, being lonely. Truly lonely. Even when surrounded by other people, men today are lonely in their souls, and it’s a pain unlike anything else. Guys it has to change, it can’t remain as it is. There is something you can do about it, and that’s what I’m going to talk about on this episode. So let’s get started.

Modern women won’t let you lead. There is not a moment went by I ignored. All the good men I know are busy trying to keep the cast and crew from drilling holes in the bottom of the boat. It’s not good to be alone. God knows things about the devils ways that we don’t. Know it haven’t ever lied about it and still find myself alone with the heavy burden of trying to keep all the responsibilities together. Society and culture get in the way. Risk is not my problem it’s time. Part of the way to destroy the family is destroying a work life balance and corporate American and consumerism loves to keep you slaving 50 and 60 hours. Good men are hard to find that share values in an independent and Godless society. So many ignore reality. Very good talk sir.
I was talking with one of my sons the other day, he said - My problem is I worry about what others think of me. I told him - You'll lose that when you get older so, you might as well lose it now.
So true
Bless you dear brother for that much needed and spot on message!
To me it’s pretty simple. It’s easy to find male community, but let’s be real, it’s on everyone’s heart to find a partner.
In an increasing polarized culture, there is a mismatch on gendered lines. The right side has an overabundance of men, and the left side has an overabundance of women. Even in the Christian community, all of the more reformed/cessationist/“hardcore” churches are more male leaning, and the more liberal/charismatic churches are more women leaning. We’re constantly told “don’t compromise on your values for someone else!” And then the number of suitable partners in your group seems to be shrinking by the minute. In my opinion, if you’re going to take that stance, then be willing to accept the increasing possibility of dying single.
I don't think it's easy to find a good Biblical male community for many reasons, including the ones that you listed.
@@HTnutty wait really? I only really spoke about finding partners. What reason did I give? Regardless, are you really telling me that there isn’t a single men’s ministry in your area? If you live in the west, there are churches everywhere. They are designed to embrace you with open arms
@@breesty4229 you spoke about the right side being more hardcore and more male leaning and the left side being more women leaning. Neither of those is Biblical leaning.
And I never said there isn't a single men's ministry in my area. I will say that there are tons of men's "bible studies" and lots of "pancake breakfasts", that's not at all the same thing as a strong Biblical male community to truly do life with. I've been to Christian men's retreats with 300+ men there, and few willing to really talk, open, share, support, etc... beyond the surface level and expected conversations. It's super easy to wear the mask of a good Christian man.
@@HTnutty have you considered the possibility that your preferences are too rigid? As for your first point, you say neither is biblical leaning, and you made that determination on your own, when both sides I mentioned also claim to be biblical leaning. If you’ve been to men’s retreats with hundreds of people and not one guy there meets your qualifications for a good friend, I think you need some inward reflection honestly. Also, it’s good you’re going out to these events because that seems to solve the Crux of the video, loneliness.
Good luck with your "Men Only" Fellowship/Accountability Group. Tried that and what I experienced repeatedly was that Men (do not) share for the most part AND are UNWILLING to form bonds with other men for whatever reasons. The MOST COMMON reasons were....
• They are married with Family and believed they didn't have TIME for their peers.
• Too busy trying to make their (unsaved) girlfriend their wife.
Plus, church doesn't give a damn about OLDER Single Men and women. In fact, Older Singles have NO place in church and are NOT welcomed there.
Here is the reality. I have been married for 36 years. With a wife and children you are so busy you dont have time to hang out with friends. Its a time issue.
Man I needed this, thanks.
great video look forward to more great content
Oooh man I’m 26 this title made me click on this so fast. I have a lot of friends but I cannot find a good woman for the life of me. Been single 3 years
I hope to find my proverbs 31 wife tired of being alone and i have very few friends . Working on my issues to .
Religion means 'to bind again'. Religion divides.
Surrender to CHRIST first and then, if its HIS will, you may get a friend or a wife.
I wish I could find one
Single christian man 49 never married i am lonely .
If you have surrendered to CHRIST, then your life is not your own. Do you ask JESUS what HE wants you to do and dedicate yourself too? Praying you find comfort that only the HOLY SPIRIT gives.
Why just men ??
He never said it was just men. Men, in general, report being much more lonely than women.
It's not. But the channel is for men, so the videos are - shockingly - for men.
@@jojo4rmdabronx Its sad too, because if only people would look objectively at patriarchy, they would see how bad it is.....for men!
Men are CONditioned to think they are leaders. How can one lead if they dont have a MENtor and training?
The word Religion means, 'to bind again'. JESUS came to set us free.
