MVP Masculinity
from Kingdom Moments with Rusty Thomas · host Rusty Thomas
Here is the second message delivered at out first annual KLI Manhood Bootcamp. It is based upon an interview between Jordan Peterson and Tim Tebow. Jordan was curious to know how can Tim be so fiercely completive in sports, hate the thought of losing and have this sense of a higher calling and service to the least of these. Tim didn't flinch, "I must fight for those who cannot fight for themselves." This is Tim's vision statement, "“to bring faith, hope and love to those who need a brighter day in their darkest hour of need.” Through the competition of sports and his work with his family on the mission field he learned to pursue being the MVP, Most Valuable Player to rescue the Most Vulnerable People. This episode covers this topic Biblically by studying the life of Job in chapter 29. He was the MVP of his day. C S Lewis stated, "“In a sort of ghastly simplicity we remove the organ and demand the function. We make men without chests and expect of them virtue and enterprise. We laugh at honour and are shocked to find traitors in our midst. We castrate and bid the geldings be fruitful.” To remedy that dreadful state, C. S. Lewis wrote that the disparate strands of manhood-- fierceness and gentleness--can find healthy synthesis in the person of the knight and in the code of chivalry. Here these competing impulses--normally found in different individuals--find their union." God’s word affirms this call men, "Be brave, be strong and do all things in love (1 Corinthians 16:13). Jordan Peterson stated, "“A harmless man isn’t a good man. A good man is a dangerous man who has everything under voluntary control.” He also declared, "“And if you think tough men are dangerous, wait until you see what weak men are capable of.” "Hard times create strong men, strong men create good times, good times create weak men, and weak men create hard times" Gentlemen, become an MVP for Christ and for the Most Vulnerable People! AMEN.
