First Church For Men Opens Its Doors...Continued from page 2

Rebekah Montgomery

Contributing Writer

 

"I want to give churches tools to create that man-friendly environment on Sunday morning and throughout the week," said Murrow. "The answer is not to create a 'Submit to me, woman!' culture. That's does not make Godly men. The purpose is to create disciples of Jesus.

 

"What will attract men is for churches to strike a balance between the masculine and feminine spirit (in the programming, symbols, and setting). I want people to speak up for the masculine spirit in the church. I want them to start asking questions like 'How will the men react to this? Is this something men can relate to? How is our Sunday school curriculum helping boys win?'

 

Murrow believes that once women understand what he is saying, they will get behind the concept. "Women are tired of raising their boys in church only to lose them in young adulthood. And women will be delighted that something is happening in the church that they don't have to push, pull, or prod," Murrow added.
