Current Issue Cover Story
- June 2009
As much as the inner workings and goings on
of the hearts and minds of men entrances both men and women alike,
an even more complex heart sits unnoticed in the shadows on the
periphery of our society – the heart of the godly man. When the
dust clears after the frenzied storm of mainstream media’s
coverage of the epic battle of men versus women, the godly man
stands in the clearing, shrugs his shoulders at all the hullabaloo
and makes his way to the weekly Wednesday night bible study group.
Single and content, though undoubtedly fostering that quiet desire
for his Eve, the godly man has purposed, disciplined and directed
his heart towards his God and silenced all the worthless
distractions of the world; distractions that the average man finds
wickedly titillating. This man is in no way perfect, but He stays
open and honest with God, himself and others allowing the Bible to
lead him closer and closer to perfection. Now at this point, there
will no doubt be several female readers who will scoff at this
description of a godly man, dismissing it as unrealistic. But let
me tell you, it is realistic! We need to set our standards higher
ladies. If the ‘godly’ man in your life goes to the club and gets
drunk on Friday night, sleeps with his ‘boo’ on Saturday night and
then goes to service on Sunday morning, you may want to skip this
article and see what insight you can gain about your man from the
ladies on Sex and the City because this article won’t help you at
all! Like I mentioned earlier, the godly man is far from perfect,
however, there does exist a clear distinction between he and the
average man in this society. Yes, they both revere Michael Jordan
and refuse to ask for directions when they’ve gotten themselves
lost, but in matters of the heart the difference is like night and
day. The godly man is one of character and dignity. Honoring God
and respecting man. Now if you’re interested in knowing about the
real deal, I can all but guarantee that the points in this article
will reflect the heart of a man after God’s own heart.Read Story

"What
Do Women Really Think About Men?"
The oldest and
longest running disagreement in history isn’t between Democrats
and Republicans, or conservatives and liberals, or even between
Blacks and Whites. It’s the battle between the sexes that actually
forms the basis for conflicts of every nature, both large and
small. It is at the center of every dichotomy that has ever been
created. For eons, men and women have gone toe-to-toe on a
multitude of issues. Yet on the flip side, the love that exists
between a man and a woman contains an incredible power that has
sparked wars, formed nations, torn families apart and started new
ones. Kings have abdicated their thrones for it, and heartsick
lovers have destroyed themselves over it. We bitterly complain,
yet we can’t live without each other. “What do women WANT?” men
cry, while women ask, “Will he EVER learn?” Today, in this hour,
we’ll peel back a few of the veils covering that mystery of
mysteries…a woman’s most private thoughts, and discover what she
really thinks about men. Yes, I know I’m about to betray the
sisterhood, and it might mean revoking my Master- Card™ and taking
away my PMS privileges, but I’m not doing this selfishly. I do it
for the sake of those poor, clueless guys who have to listen to
“Well, what do YOU think it means?” and “If you haven’t figured it
out by now, I’m certainly not going to tell you!” (We really do
drive them crazy.)
