In 1 Timothy 3:2 Paul uses a unique word translated in many ways, one of which is prudent—“An overseer, then, must be…prudent.” Wikipedia explains prudence as, “The ability to govern and discipline oneself by the use of reason. It is classically considered to be a virtue, and one of the four cardinal virtues.” It is showing care and thought for the future. Merriam-Webster says, “The prudent are marked by wisdom. They are shrewd in the management of practical affairs. Discreet.”   Get Your Copy Now! of Tell Them, What Great Fathers Tell Their Sons and Daughters www.meninthearena.org Men in the Arena Books and Swag Support the Podcast

I have noticed something in guys that attend the church that I want to address. Since our target is men in the stress bubble of 28-55 years old this will be very helpful. Biblically speaking every Christian is a minister and every minister has a ministry. Here is the problem I want to address. It is the man who does not serve others because, as he puts it, his family is his ministry. THIS IS ADMIRABLE and THIS STATEMENT PUTS HIM IN AN ELITE CLASS OF MEN. But here is the lie.  God has called ALL MEN are ministers to the family. This is a biblical mandate to love, lead and serve the family unit. The Biblical Mandate is DIFFERENT from your Personal Mission. Your mission is what things God has wired your to-do and placed on your heart Based on your SHAPE.
