After having been 100% invisible to women all my life, I am beginning to think it has been a blessing in disguise.
RE: “The Problem With Servant Leadership”
Leftist ideology twists everything.
I subscribe to the idea of servant leadership in this manner;
As a leader, I must be proficient in doing, willing to do and actually doing the same things I lead others to do. As a leader, you don’t always have the time to do the things you task others with doing, because you’re in the role of leadership over the tasks, but you better be fully ABLE, SKILLED and EQUIPPED to do those tasks. When the need arises for “more hands on deck”, the leader, in humility, must be ready and willing to actually help to DO the tasks and not feel entitled in your leadership role by feeling that you’re “above” such menial duties. The leader must have the demonstrated, fruit bearing evidence for the same skills over which the leader is charged to lead others.
If you don’t have the skills, you earn no respect.
If you don’t have the care, you after heartless.
If you don’t have the humility, you are a petty tyrant.
People easily see through such frauds and is often why people don’t respect their bosses, their parents, or their church leadership.
This “new and improved” definition, as put forth by these neuvo pontificating authors and “teachers” is the wimpification and demasculation of the original intent. They propose the servant leadership is akin to the examples in contemporary marketing, where the man of the house is a spineless loser with a title, yet no skills, intellect and a chump. This is NOT servant leadership.
If they are driven away then they were not men in the first place.
Men do get a harder sermon than women do.
Perhaps Evangelicals should read and comprehend the full bible, laws of Moses and the prophets. Set examples and expectations.
What about men who really do need to man-up? We all know a few.
“Nathanael Blake from EPPC wrote an essay arguing that an aversion to marriage by men is unmanly.”
Pastors continually ignore Paul’s advice that it is better not to marry.
A man needs to work to find a good woman and eventually a wife who is also God fearing.
This all sounds like a load of crap from “organized religion”.
Masculine men exist in individual churches. In those churches, they do not so much talk or scold about it, but they just quietly live it. It’s a culture.
Fortunately, most animals know how to treat Adam 2.
They don’t even want a divorce.
The others, not much so....%
