This is one event in a series of free workshops introducing what we mean by "Christlike Masculinity." This workshop is specifically about Feelings - what creates emotion, how we experience emotion, and how to handle it in a healthy way.

Men today are taught conflicting messages about what emotions are acceptable to feel, how it is acceptable to express emotion, and when it is safe to show emotion. There seem to be unspoken rules about emotion for men, but the rules change and can be challenging to navigate. Is there something wrong with a man who gets angry at work? What about with his family? Or at a football game? Or what about sadness, is it ever acceptable for a man to cry? At work? At a wedding? At church?

If Jesus Christ was the only “perfect” man, then doesn’t it follow that he is the perfect male role model? How would the world be different if more men were men like unto Christ? The reality today is that boys and men turn to pop-culture or other stereotypical icons or worst of all pornography to learn how to be a man, and it is leaving the world wanting for mature men.

 How did Christ exemplify healthy emotion? Curious?

We’d love an opportunity to share what we have discovered with you, as well as gather your thoughts on the subject. In addition, we want to demonstrate for you what the experiential processes are like on our men’s retreat, As I Am.
