Key Theme
The measure of biblical manhood is not power, success, or independence, but faithful responsibility exercised through steadfast faith, Spirit-empowered strength, and sacrificial love after the example of Christ.
Key Application
Reject passive or worldly definitions of manhood and intentionally pursue Christlike manhood by abiding in Christ, taking responsibility for those God has entrusted to you, and using your strength to serve and protect others in love.
Key Verse
1 Corinthians 16:13 “Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.”
Key Questions:
1. Where are you most tempted toward passivity rather than responsibility?
2. What responsibilities has God specifically entrusted to you in this season of life?
3. How can strength become destructive if it is not governed by love?
4. What is one concrete step you can take this week to become the kind of man Paul describes?

Church family, we praise God for how faithfully in so many respects you give. Our church family is undeniably generous, but we still have great needs for supplication. We ask that you give joyfully, faithfully and sacrificially in response to how our great God and Savior has given to us.
