Man Up For Pete's Sake

Newman
Apparently there's a crisis of masculinity.  Apparently we need to rediscover how to be men.  Apparently there's a particular need to learn what it means to be a Christian man.  Mmmm...

As one who finds it hard to raise much interest in this stuff, one who is positively turned off by organised chapathons I must confess to not paying much attention.  Occasionally though the odd OTT nutty roaring muscles its way into my attention and from time to time I come across an article or blog post that seems worthy of note.  All of which is a very long winded way of saying that I think that this from Mark Sayers is worth a read.

Theres a couple of men called Carl Beech (The Code) and Anthony Delaney (Diamond geezers) both written books lately that have more than a little Male Machismo sprinkled in them..I tried so very hard to take them seriously at the Iron sharpens Iron day at wythenshawe forum recently,but a million men into "church". If you want to borrow them Glenn send me an appropriate mode of contact!

Thanks Brian, I'm aware of Carl Beech but not Delaney. Think I too might have to try vwey hard like them as well, so thanks for the offer but I'm a bit too busy eating raw steak and punching the wall with my bare fists.

"Vwey"? How unfortunate! Sounds a bit like an affected, and none too butch lisp!
