THE BECOMING MAN 19

COLUMN

with Jonoi Bowen

CAN MEN BE REACHED?

Let’s face it we all know that the ratio of male to female in churches is alarming, and it has given rise to many persons thinking and even saying that perhaps men are unreachable. I remember analyzing this situation a couple years ago not from the perspective of what I was seeing but from the perspective of what God would want me to see, this began to open my eyes up to the reality of the situation and also the reality that God can give us the tools to see this ratio return to equilibrium.

I was in discussion with a friend of mine this past week about this very same situation, she expressed to me that she believed that some churches are not doing enough to reach men to which I firmly agreed. To add to that not only is it my opinion that churches could be doing more to reach men but I also believe that the church has to do more to reach men.
