Courageous

I know this is super late, but let me start by thanking the person who pushed me over the top in Movember, and helped be beat AJ the Wonderdog - you know you who are!  Thanks!

So I saw the movie Courageous at Bradford Alliance Church yesterday, second time I've seen this flick...  If you haven't see it, I definitely recommend you check it out.  As you probably know by now, it's a movie that has a great message for guys, and particularly for fathers.

But more than just that, I think TODAY, in our day and age, it is especially applicable.  For the past few years I have been of the view that men have lost their place in society.  That men are often looked down on and can be regarded as - for lack of better words - incompetent and even dumb.  Don't believe me?  Check out almost any commercial on TV, or the father figure in TV shows.  Most of them look pretty bad.

So at a time like this, perhaps a movie like Courageous is even that much more important - to help men find their place again.  Biblically speaking, that's at the head of the family, being a man of integrity, and leading his wife and kids in the way God has outlined.

I was inspired.  I hope you are too.  Let's be those men.
