Message to the Christian Churches
July 26th, 2022 by G.
From Jordan Petersen. Worth thinking about.
It’s amazing how many advocates for being non judgmental, reaching people where they are, being inclusive, etc. get uncomfortable when its not socially approved victim categories. Include . . . young men? Affirm . . . their identity?
We live in a golden age of gross hypocrisy.

“Ask more of them than anyone else ever has!”
YES!! What a fabulous message.

But seriously, I think that our leaders anticipate his message, because I’m in a YSA stake calling right now, and what I see is that they have started calling us adults and letting us act like it. They are giving young men, especially, real responsibility, and expecting them to shoulder it well. And I hope they continue, because we are attracting aimless youths to the cause of Zion.

“The Christian church is there to remind people, young men included, and perhaps even first and foremost, that they have a woman to find, a garden to walk in, a family to nurture, an ark to build, a land to conquer, a ladder to heaven to build, and the utter terrible catastrophe of life to face stalwartly, in truth, devoted to love, and without fear.”
Wow. Makes me excited to be a man. Marrying and having a family is the great adventure of a lifetime. I’m glad I get to.
