You are a WARRIOR; even if you don’t know it yet!

Christian familyI’ve never met a man who wouldn’t give up his life to protect a member of his family. Against all odds, a father will rush into a burning home to protect his child. He would step between an armed robber and his wife without hesitation. He will work all day in the melting sun to provide a home and food. The man of the house is called to provide for the physical needs of his family, and the overwhelming majority of men succeed in their goal.

Where we sometimes fall short is in providing the spiritual food and shelter for our families. While focusing on today’s problems, we dare not forget about eternity with God. Unlike the stereotypical uncaring boss at work, God will do almost anything to help us win the war for spiritual superiority. God is on your side.

Warriors, everyday guys like you and me, are needed to demand honesty, integrity, and character from the world around us.

Dad is the Warrior Protecting his familyWarriors create a positive, loving, compassionate, and forgiving way of life for their family and community. Warriors determine right from wrong, and stand on the side of right, whenever, wherever, and against whoever chooses to be on the side which is wrong. Warriors, as you will read, are not normally aggressors, but are people who know their God, and try their best to follow His plan. They know that in their corner is a manager who is smarter, stronger and more determined than any opponent. Warriors win because they have to; it is their family they are fighting for.

I will remind you, through this website and blog, that God has a plan for every one of us. His plan for us is to live abundantly; His expectation is that we will strive to obey His words, and keep on fighting for success; His definition of success.

Men are key actors on this stage because they play a special role in Christian life. Men need to lead their families into a place of security, love and Godly belonging. Men can create peace, but to do so they must first become a WARRIOR.

God promises that He will never leave our side, and never give up on us. God's son, Jesus is the number one WARRIOR of all time.
