Obviously I need to go put a veil on my head or something.

At one of the churches I belonged to all the men got into skeet shooting for a time. That was fun, but it started getting expensive after awhile and the novelty of it wore off. Other than that, I can't say I have been part of a church that had an organized men's group.
Ummmm...I quote, you said, "where men are concerned...". If thats not a reference towards the EXCLUSION of women, I need to go back to english class.
I don't mean to be unkind either but...men comment on women's issues constantly so I definitely will never hesitate to comment on a men's thread.
I think your looking for something that isnt there.
where men are concerned is a reference to this thread and the question asked here.
Sister it appears to me you have a lady sized chip on your shoulder. Believe me. if I want to roll sexist, I can. I know how. this isnt that. and let me say that it is a little irritating to see you go to this place. It boarderline feminism.
if you want to comment be my guest. have at it. tell us what you think mens ministry ought to be or tell us about a successful one you know of.
but please dont walk in and bash men to make you feel better or find some derogatory compairison where none was offered.

Excellent post, Ferd. My husband said that is why there are not more men in the church. He said that men know what they need to do and they don't need to hear someone harping at them all the time.
Personally, this woman doesn't need someone someone harping at her all the time either. Thus I don't attend the ladies stuff. I'm all for activities...well, for the most part. I'm not big on shopping and for the record...especially for Rico...
I HATE WALMART!!!
