1 | Pastor preaches about men body parts! | Luke 22:26 | Bereaniam | 172642 | ||
Is my pastor wrong to teach on a Sunday morning in front of men, women, and teenagers about what a real man is? He mentioned that Hollywood and renown painters show men and Jesus as soft and effeminate. He intimated that he's a real man because he hunts, skiies,deals with his horses, cattle, and "passes gas". He said real men do not help w/dishes, change diapers, cuddle all the time, or go shopping w/the wife. He counselled some woman if that's what she wanted in a husband...she should marry a woman. Such men, he said, are wimps. He also told all the men in the church to say "We have tes------" (a man's body part). I almost came unglued! My husband does not like hunting deer, fishing, etc., but he does like to cook. So he was squirming during the sermon. My pastor is white, (I'm Black)we have "one church...two locations". The "church" I attend is predominantly Black. I felt the pastor was being myopic and insensitive to the Black congregation, as many cannot afford to hunt at deer leases, go skiig, deal with horses, cattle, etc. My pastor does not like for anyone to critique him...do you think I should speak to him to at least help him understand how he may have offended some of the men? Or, do I just continue to pray that God speak to him about what he should preach. He tells us that he does pray and feel "led" that this is going to be a 6 week series. I just hope it is not as graphic. Bereaniam |

Bereaniam: This man preached from his opinion, not from Scripture. Go to the Elders or Deacons, and ask them what action they intend to do, as this is not Scriptual in any way. If nothing is to be done, go to the pastor and confront him according to Matthew 18. If nothing can be resolved then its' a matter of if you want to saty under such unscriptual preaching. Blessings.

I agree w/your pastor "that Hollywood and renown painters show men and Jesus as soft and effeminate." However, This pastor described a "real man of genius" from the bud light commercials. Men very much in touch with his flesh. If I were in your shoes I would not be afraid to "in your pastor's vein of thought" rock the boat. Be a man and stand up for what is holy. Let me recommend a book. Paul Coughlin, No More Christian Nice Guy: When Being Nice - Instead of Good - Hurts Men, Women, and Children, (Minneapolis: Bethany House Publishers, 2005). 224 pages. Foreword by Dr. Laura Schlessinger I agree w/justme jcdm327 |
