Last week at Sisterhood Mornings I talked about the male/female dynamic and how it fits into the big picture of God’s redemptive plan for humanity. Even as I type that sentence I realize the “hugeness” of the topic. I am in no way saying that I have it all figured out, but scripture does give us guidelines for health and wholeness in this arena. I based my message off of a series I did a couple of years ago called, “She Does Him Only Good: Loving and lifting the men in your world.” Let’s face it, sisters: men make up roughly half of humanity. Unless we get great (or at least functional!) at working with them in every arena of life, we will be seriously hindered in our potential. Genesis shows us that God’s original intent for men and women was fruitful partnership. I believe that is still His intent today in marriage, in work, and in the church. Unfortunately, the enemy has greatly distorted the relational dynamic between sons and daughters of God. Too many times we as women view men as obstacles to our success rather than partners in it. Too many times men view women as accessories to their life rather than partners in their lives, crucial to their success. I want to encourage you to listen to the message from last week. It’s on the sidebar to the right and it’s free until the end of the group semester. It’s called, “A Beautiful Life: Men.” Love to you all!
