Manhood: Introduction


Him:  Our culture has had a large influence on the role that men are perceived to be required to play. We are the bread-winners; we don't take care of the home. We do the yard work (maybe); we don't do the dishes. We take the kids to their practices or games; we don't help them with their school work or get involved with shaping who they become. Our domain is the TV room and the garage; the rest of the house is our wife's responsibility.

All these and more are lies that we've allowed to become reality. Manhood is much more than compartmentalizing what we prefer to be involved in. I'm going to attempt to dive deeper into this in the coming weeks and offer some practical tips for being the man you were intended to be. See the post below for more on leading your family.
