Love is an action word. As men, we are not called to be lackadaisical or lazy in our approach to life. As leaders, God has asked men to be responsible for what he has been given. To be the leaders God has called us to be, we must love sacrificially, just like Christ Jesus. No servant is greater than the master; if Christ loved sacrificially, we must do the same. Participate in these mandates with friends who can hold you accountable as you focus on developing yourself into a Godly man.

The Lord is our defender and has put men in positions of leadership to defend the helpless. We are called to care for widows and orphans in their need, those who have been marginalized by society.

Over the next 30 days, we will look at examples from the Bible and use them as a roadmap to learn to defend the helpless.

Throughout the Bible, we see the theme of generosity and the significant role it plays in the Christian life. But true generosity is about much more than just what we do with our money.
