Hope you brought a hankie. Every man should carry a hankie. And a knife. And a flashlight. Other things too, but this is not the time.
Servant leadership transforms leadership into subservience
Although servant leadership could be a biblical doctrine describing leadership as the service that men render, in reality it is a term used to convince men that servitude is in fact what leadership is.
Who do we think we are?
Feminism hates the power hierarchy that God has built into creation. But we cannot restore that hierarchy by hating it ourselves—and we do hate it.
Mission, then marriage
Finding and pursuing a godly mission tends to make finding and pursuing a godly woman easier and more successful. When you make finding a wife your mission, you are less likely to find a wife, or a mission.
Training your toddler to battle porn
The battle against porn starts while your son is still in diapers…
The threefold cord of marriage
There are three critical elements to marriage. If these are carefully tended, marriage itself is a strong and stable institution. If they are not, it is not.
You can’t image God if you don’t fear him
God represents his fatherhood through the created order; how a younger man speaks of God, and how he treats older men in real life, reflects how he treats God in his heart.
A primer on how to lead your wife, part 3: leading means calling
We get asked how to lead a wife more than anything else. We break it down like this: you lead your wife by following Jesus, requiring her to follow in your tracks, and calling her to do so.

Singleness is not normal
Marriage is the norm that God established for men and women from the beginning, so to normalize singleness is to normalize the abnormal. There is no “gift” of singleness; there is only the gift of celibacy or the curse of singleness.

The bitter taste of the red pill
Our mission is to call Christians back to father-rule. That starts by submitting ourselves to the rule of our Father—not chafing against it.
Be careful what you laugh at
Comedy is a powerful tool of acculturation—and it is effective even if you know what it is doing. If you are conditioned to treat our culture’s wrecking of good things as amusing, how will you take it seriously, or remain sober-minded about the work of repair?

Attending church is entering the heavenly court

Rebuilding the social grammar of masculinity
To restore men’s confidence in what it means to be men, we need to work beyond individual performance and judgment. We must re-establish the kind of tacit cues that other cultures have taken for granted as shaping masculine (and feminine) expression.
Middle school talk on being your sex welcomed by boys…not so much the girls
Preteen boys and girls are getting the strong message of feminism, whether their parents are secular or Christian. This message calcifies the boys, and brassifies the girls. Both need the antidote of biblical instruction.
Ms. Wrong, part 1: immodesty
The first installment of our serial guide to considering a possible helpmeet. Here we focus on what Scripture says about modesty in women, and how to apply this in the modern day.
If marriages should be fruitful, can we use contraceptives?
While contraceptives are not intrinsically wrong, the ordering of a marriage toward fruitlessness is—and contraceptives often end up being used to establish such a pattern.
Fruitfulness is normal
From the beginning, God established children as the natural fruit of marriage. Barrenness is a curse—so why would believers voluntarily bring it upon themselves?
