Where are the men of God who will lead your homes and love your wives.
Where are the men who protect our families from the moral and spiritual chaos in our culture that seeks to destroy her.
Where are the men who will serve our church faithfully.
Not being a spectator at a sporting event.
Where are the men who will bring their lives and their homes under the Lordship of Jesus Christ?
Where are you man of God?
