My blog entry is an exerpt from a sermon by Mark Driscoll, a pastor in Seattle, WA. In this video clip (23 minutes) he uses John the Baptist to help us understand how to become MEN.
Men are producers, creators and cultivators, not consumers. They're givers, not takers; they bring life, not death. Men aren't looking for the path of least resistance, they're looking for the path that brings the greatest glory to God. Those who live in the wilderness of adolescence are simply boys who can shave with a high self-esteem and low self-awareness, not men.
I'm very passionate about casting a vision for our athletes about what it means to be a man. Mark said everything I've been trying to say for the past four years, but he's much more educated, talented and effective.
