To be a man

I started a class tonight at the church we've been attending, the class is aptly named Mens Fraternity. Before you think it the answer is no we do not meet in the woods and beat drums, group hunt small animals or play drinking games. We also don't sit around complaining about our wifes, jobs, sports or kids. The class is for men and for helping us to define who we are suppose to be biblically. I'm not going to write a long explaination of my first meeting or try to put in words the emotions it evoked. I am going to say without knowing the answer myself that I challenge you to try to define a "man" while rejecting what the world has told us or our fathers. The fact that no one can give a compelling definition that makes men want to rise up to that meaning should teach you the necessity of the class.
