After the Call: Living the Mission Everyday

Hey Guys,

What kind of man are you becoming?
That question echoed in our sanctuary this past Sunday—and for good reason. As we gathered for a special Father’s Day message, we weren’t just celebrating dads; we were challenging every man to step into his God-given identity with boldness and humility.
In the sermon, “Man on a Mission: Called, Confronted, and Commissioned,” we saw that biblical manhood isn’t about having it all together—it’s about living a life of purpose, power, and perseverance rooted in Jesus Christ.

Here’s what we were reminded of:

1. You Are Called to Lead
God doesn’t call men to comfort—He calls us to courageous leadership. Whether it’s in our homes, in the workplace, or in the church, we are to reflect the character of Christ by leading with humility, integrity, and faith.
? “Be on the alert, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.” – 1 Corinthians 16:13
Are you leading with conviction? Are your children and your spouse seeing Christ in you?
2. You Are Confronted With Real Struggles
We broke the silence on struggles many men face—doubt, temptation, grief, lust, anxiety, and worldly pressure. Every man in the room felt the weight of that truth. But we also proclaimed the greater truth: God’s grace is sufficient, and His Spirit is stronger.
You’re not alone in the battle. You’re not disqualified by weakness. You’re invited to rely daily on the strength of Christ.
? “My grace is sufficient for you, for power is perfected in weakness.” – 2 Corinthians 12:9
3. You Are Commissioned to Love
At the heart of godly manhood is the call to love like Jesus—not selfishly, but sacrificially. That means forgiving quickly, serving generously, and laying down our own comfort for the sake of others.
True masculinity isn’t defined by dominance but by devotion.
? “Husbands, love your wives, just as Christ also loved the church and gave Himself up for her.” – Ephesians 5:25

What Now? Living It Out
Sunday was the rally cry. Monday begins the mission.
The calling to be a godly man doesn’t end when the service ends. It’s lived out:

• In how you open the Bible before you open your phone.
• In how you pray over your wife and kids.
• In how you fight your battles—with truth, not pride.
• In how you pursue community with other men who sharpen you.

Let’s Keep the Momentum Going
Men, don’t isolate. Don’t go back to autopilot. Don’t settle for passive Christianity.
This week, ask God:

• Where are You calling me to lead?
• What do I need to confront in my heart?
• Who are You commissioning me to love today?

Let’s live the mission. Not just for a day—but for a lifetime.
?️ You are called.
⚔️ You will be confronted.
?️ You have been commissioned.
Let’s rise up and be the men God is calling us to be.
Share your takeaways from Sunday in the comments or with a friend. Let’s encourage one another to stay on mission.
