This is War - Paul Washer
"That's what we were made for...to give ourselves to this one Great Battle!"
The Manly Stuff - C.T. Studd
As Eric Ludy talks about in his book The Bravehearted Gospel, the "manly stuff" isn't just for guys--it's for the entire Church, the whole Bride of Christ. But guess what, guys--God has called you to lead the way. "...We will dare to trust our God, we will venture our all for Him, we will live and we will die for Him, and we will do it with His joy unspeakable singing aloud in our hearts."
Elisabeth Elliot, in Mark of a Man, a collection of letters to her son-in-law:
The world cries for men who are strong: strong in conviction, strong to lead, to stand, to suffer. I pray that you will be that kind of man, Pete, glad that God made you a man, glad to shoulder the burden of manliness in a time when to do so will often bring contempt. I say to you what Paul said in his letter to the Ephesian Christians:
"Live life, then, with a due sense of responsibility, not as men who do not know the meaning and purpose of life but as those who do. Make the best use of your time, despite all the difficulties of these days. Don't be vague but firmly grasp what you know to be the will of the Lord."
