I regularly attend Women’s Bible Studies, where this is a common theme, but I can’t say I’ve ever seen anything like this outside of the church.

Men, you are needed and appreciated. Just look at the effect you have on families. When men stick with their families, that family has a good chance at success and decency. When men abandon their families, their families often become dysfunctional.

Good men really are the backbone of our culture, and it’s simply not said often enough.

Great sentiment. I’m glad this sort of thing is going on in your church. From what I’ve seen in churches though, I’m wondering if you are missing some perspective on family break up. Most family break-up doesn’t happen became men “abandon” their families. 75-80% or some such divorces are initiated by women. Overwhelmingly, men are abandoned - not the other way around.
