What role should the Christian church play within a man's life?

This question begs another question.  That being, why are there so many varieties of Christian churches?

Men come in all varieties, each having distinct personas and temperaments, socioeconomic backgrounds, etc.  For a Christian man to make a church his own, he must be able to find his place there, and subsequently feel as if he belongs.

So back to the original question.

What role should the Christian church play within a man's life?

Belonging syncs up precisely with community.  Therefore, the answer to the original question is centered there.  The Christian church he's a member of is a community of his own.

You might argue that beliefs should supercede community, but I would argue that beliefs don't motivate men to invest in their church.  It might get them there on Christmas and Easter to take communion, but that's an altogether different relationship.

What I'm referring to here is a weekly attender.  A man who brings himself and his family week after week.  Therefore, he's at least enduring a service every 7 days and perhaps also attending some mid-week gatherings.  In other words, he's hearing the gospel message and hopefully being provoked to commiserate his life towards it.

There are 5 Samson Society meetings in the metro Jackson area.  These are exclusive to men, and each is hosted by a Christian church.  Therefore, these churches are catering to men who look to / elevate authentic Christian community as important to them.

I think that is awesome!

I'm so proud of Jackson, MS and so thankful for these churches.
