IS CHRISTIANITY ‘TOO FEMININE’? RETHINKING FAITH AND MASCULINITY

It’s Witness Wednesday! Todd Friel is at Georgia Tech to talk with students about faith and masculinity, doubt, and pluralism. Segment 1: • Men and Faith: Todd tackles the perception that church is “too feminine,” encouraging men to deeply commit to God’s word. • Cultural Expectations of Masculinity: Why are some traits linked with masculinity and where does faith align or diverge from cultural norms? • Godly Masculinity Defined: Todd examines the distinct, God-designed traits of a man that set him apart for a purpose. Segment 2: • From Faith to Doubt: A “kind of atheist” student from a Christian background shares how science and peer influence pulled him away from faith. • Challenge of Good vs. Evil: Todd explores the student’s struggle with Christianity’s moral framework, using the Ten Commandments as a foundation. • Sin and Salvation: A thought-provoking discussion on why Christianity’s message of sin and redemption may be hard but essential to grasp. Segment 3: • Questioning Salvation: A self-identified Baptist grapples with certainty about his salvation and understanding of repentance. • Need for Relationship: Emphasizing that faith isn’t just belief; it’s a relationship with Jesus grounded in understanding and repentance. • Ten Commandments as Guide: Using the Commandments to discuss what a true commitment to faith looks like. Segment 4: • Faith or Flexibility? Todd talks with students who identify as “Christian but non-religious” or hold a postmodern view on faith. • Exclusivity of Christianity: Todd challenges the relativist mindset, emphasizing Christianity’s unique and exclusive claims about salvation. • Exploring Core Beliefs: Encouraging students to seek a full understanding of Christianity’s core tenets and its distinctive message. ___ Thanks for listening!
