Seeking the Right Kind of Greatness

from Mission Focused Men for Christ · host Gary Yagel

Episode Summary: Jesus offered men a shot at greatness—the opportunity to walk across the stage in eternity, have Jesus place a crown on our heads and whisper in our ear, “Well done.” This podcast is for the men who live for that moment—men whose greatest desire is to accomplish the mission assigned to them by Jesus. At the core of this mission is becoming like Jesus, which is one reason our mission is so tough. Yet every ounce of energy and moment of time we devote to building Christ-like character matters—it honors Him eternally. Today we examine two heart attitudes that do not come easily to us—having merciful and pure hearts.For Further Prayerful Thought:What insights about mercy can help you be more patient with others, and tolerant of the way THEIR deficiencies make YOUR life more difficult?Do you agree that in parenting mercy requires both FIRMNESS and EMPATHY? How would you explain the importance of this balance to another?If spiritual maturity is more about what our hearts love than about what our hands do, what does this mean for your heart loves?Feedback to the Host: Pease feel free to contact me at [email protected] with push back, questions about resources, other resources or additional ideas about how to help Christ’s men better be equipped for their mission.This Week’s Past Series Highlight: Winning Spiritual Battles Because We Use Our Spiritual WeaponsUsing the Spiritual Weapon Satan Most Fears Season 2 Episode #9 1/3/21How Jesus Wants Us to Fight Through Prayer Season 2 Episode #10 1/10/21Knowing How NOT to Promote Biblical Truth Season 2 Episode #11 1/17/21Understanding the Breastplate of Righteousness S 2 Episode #12 1/24/21Myths That Make Us Fear Sharing Our Faith Season 2 Episode #13 1/31/21Becoming More Contagious Christians Season 2 Episode #14 2/6/21 For the printed version of this message click here.For a summary of topics addressed by podcast series, click here.For FREE downloadable studies on men’s issues click here.
