This has been on my heart for almost constantly for a while now. I feel very strongly that we need a men's forum on CGA.
I would envision this as a place where men challenge each other to become Godly Men. It would be a place of accountability as truth. "Then you will know the truth, and the truth will set you free." (John 8:32) Men need to know the Truth about Satan's lies. We as men fight talking about our problems. We try to internalize them and fight them on our own. This is why so many of us fight and fight, but never win the battles over sin that we wage day to day. "Therefore confess your sins to each other and pray for each other so that you may be healed. The prayer of a righteous man is powerful and effective." (James 5:16) Confession is the only way to bring the sin into the open and expose it so we can be healed from those sins.
I would envision this forum as being a place where confession is welcomed without condemnation, but rather with the love of God that may seem tough, but is focussed on freeing us from the shackles of sin in our lives.
How many of us struggle with this sin or others. I feel this could be a great ministry for numerous men in CGA. There would be many who have already fought these battles who can offer guidance and wisdom. To make this forum safe for the men that would use it, I think that it would be by invitation only so that only men could be invited.
