Ken Graves, the senior pastor of Calvary Chapel Bangor ME, offers up his opinion of the, "Man Scale". Ken's scale has men like Mr Rogers on one end, and men like to Mr T on the other end. His advice to all men is to get on the man scale and be a man. So, are you some place between Mr Rogers and Mr T? If not, then you better look to God through Christ to find out where you are lacking, because God wants all men to be men.

It is of little surprise anymore that the religion of Islam has declared war on world, especially the West. Regardless the reasons they give for their hatred of us, the truth is that their very holy book, the Qur'an, calls for them to wage war against non believers of Allah. As we have seen, regardless the times our leaders have appeased their demands, they continue to attack and infiltrate us from within.
A quick scan of the headlines every day will show how they attack us, but the way they are infiltrating our culture is more insidious than many would realize. Islam is beginning to win more and more Western men over to their ways by giving them something for which they yearn. It is something our culture is taking away from men, who need to feel whole and worthwhile. Islam offers men a sense of direction without taking away their manliness, and it appeals to their basic instinct that the liberalization and feminization of our culture is just wrong.
I created a new chart that lists 23 women from the Scriptures. There are more than 23 women I could cover, but I took the 23 I felt were more recognizable to most Christians. Now, we all know who these women are, and their stories. From Eve to Mary, these women have had as great an impact on mankind as the men. Three, or maybe 4, are not known for their love of the One true GOD, while the others are remembered for their strength and courage in the face of adversity.
