@@1badjane493 it's ok, you can call me jezzybell. That doesn't really affect me because I don't believe in your whole reasoning behind why the word is bad. I can be a slut and that's totally fine because unlike you, I actually enjoy freedom. And saying I'm going to burn? Wow! There truly is no hate like Christian love. Want to have a phone conversation?
@MarkDriscollMinistries This cant be 100%. Christ himself did not marry. The spiritual conflict within a person is not resolved by merely maintaining a status quo. We do have to grow as men AND women, but it doesnt mean that the men who came before us, many or most of whom were motivated to do all of what you said through lust, greed, worldliness, shallow mindedness, and ego were altogetger right. Or else we'd have nothing to grow up to and away from... If you follow Christ, his message is a spiritual one that did not directly involve any of what you are saying. I cant trust your message even if it is well intentioned. This is not to say that what you are saying is wrong... but it is only one barren and lifeless side of the story. We all know when we are walking in the Spirit and not weak in the flesh... spiritual freedom has always been gradually won like the story of Christ in the desert. In an odd way, rejection of stress and faith in the worldly things you demand, makes at least myself better at doing them... and better at doing them honestly/naturally. And i think this may be because any orderly thing i do in this world must be done in the Service of God and for the sake of heaven for all his Creation, and not primarily for me to be the "Best" or "Good" man. I am Willing to believe that God Will Guide me if my Goal is Right... that I am dependent on God... if not then what are we even believing in?
@@MotownModelsYes in seeing how Christians interact with people like you am i increasingly disillusioned. Certain messages seem to lead them to settle and feel comfortable in certain ways of being. The change we need begins as an internal one that it expresses itself to the outside... it cannot just a surface appearance doing of things on the outside. It just cant be and i refuse to believe it. Edit: But i will say this as i am being fully transparent. My experience has shown me that what you are calling "freedom" is by far the exact opposite. The Christian message is still a beautiful and saving one from what i can gather, and just because individuals can spurn you while like me-- attempting to call themselves Christian or while attempting their best to properly interpret things (theyre only human); it doesnt mean that you have to select an opposite extreme as your solution away from them. If you were outside the flesh, would you truly direct it to do such frivolous things with inevitable internal consequences? If the answer is no, then did you ever truly exercise your own freedom when you chose those things? The sane question can apply to Mark Driscoll's message in fairness--i dont think God made billions of individuals to grow ideally in that one way he advises. Many have tried and many have failed as a result of even doing it.
ALL because these men were raised by their mothers WITHOUT a father. I was one of them. Born in 1980 coddled by my mother while my father was belittled and removed. I ended up a homeless alcoholic drug addict and by the grace of God finally grew up. I am now the father of 2 children and am doing everything I can with the help of Jesus Christ to take care of them and their mother. Someday I will rekindle the relationship with my mother when she is done hating men.
She May need a gentle view and voice before continuing to abandon her. She is missing real love. She needs Jesus and God. But you could be that bridge.
I’m sure ur Mother LOVES U VERY MUCH !!! Big difference between being a Mother & hating other men…U must forgive her cause GOD forgives us…U only have 1 Mother, u can have many Dads !!! Forgive & renew ur relationship w/ her…A Mothers Love is very stronge…May JESUS Help u w/ this & Bless Ur whole Family…💜💜✝️✝️🙌🙌🕊️🕊️✨✨🥰🥰🙏🙏
You cannot have one mother and many dads. That’s apart of the problem with our culture and society. We act like the father is replaceable and/or interchangeable.
It's nice to hear someone acknowledging that this isn't all on men. Men alone can't fix this. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially enslaved men and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
Better woman? Just be a woman, and you will have come a long way. Women today have forgotten what it is to be a woman, and they dress like men. Sunday, I was in church and only saw one dress.
Well my dad behaves based on emotions and doesn't think rational and places himself above everyone else and is just an all around despicable human... So don't let this sermon be the the be all end all of resolution
God is our dad. If you follow God's teachings he will gladly be your dad. I saw many people turn their life around for the better after they found God. Thank God.@@RickJames-qq1re
@@RickJames-qq1re The man who raises you to be a man doesn't have to be your father, if the father is unable to raise a man. Could be an uncle, older brother, or grandfather, or some other figure like that.
My son hasn't been able to find a decent woman that wants a relationship or marriage and family. They either have several babies from different men or do drugs. This society is messed up.
It's a common problem and even if a good woman can be found, the odds are firmly stacked against him. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
It’s always easier to gaslight men as this pastor is doing instead of addressing the problems that made men react accordingly. Men just adapted to the broken system that was laid out in front of them and it was applauded as inclusive and progressive.
This is why the establishment of the big-tech/banksters crony-capitalists and their Global international Corporatism are already engineering a backshift loss stepback of their own orchestration. They are correcting the CRT, Trans, Peddo, direction because they knew it was too far, too fast for the West and USA to accept. They fix it before real men do. They are making things appear to be fought by the good guys at the top levels, so that only artificially will it seem like the rough times coming will bring back a majority of real tough men, when gatekeepers, upper elites are reorganizing to give the masses a short battle “victory” (to stay on their target fir a ww3 to win the next huge WAR.

The vast majority of men and women will not realize the ‘Goddess’ worship dominance coming (with future News, MSM, Government & corporations in support), and will only see the “kink” side or sxx side that will attract young men like Bees 🐝 to a honey 🍯 pot.

Nah, imo youre just hearing a nice monologue--a good man's opinion about how he wants society to be and what he thinks will save many. I THINK dissenting voices and comments are deleted here too and so you only receive this one man's well spoken opinion with very little apparent counter opinion(and they dont need to be combative or aggressive commebts to be deleted either). I say that he may be boiling down and distilling virtue to his own narrow path. And though I respect his point of view, peoples' experiences show that he clearly hasnt stumbled upon a panacea. The path he mentioned has not protected many people from spiritual or even earthly ruin. Those who are neither prepared nor compatible with it have made systems dysfunctional and dreadful. Those who are compatible with it often become bullies of those who they consider weak or those who God would have likely fulfilled had they simply gone a different route. I assume that this mah's advice backfires often only because for many the motivation to act on this kind of advice is based on a belief and fear of the world rather than a Faith in one's own sufficiency and dependence in God. Im not saying that he is wrong at all, but maybe that the well-adjusted life he has won is not the goal, but rather the symptom of doing things right on the inside. If it is the goal before God... well that becomes idolatry and worship of the god of this world: Satan... doesnt it? Maybe im wrong, but i still want this side of the story to be considered. I believe i had something more worthy to say on the matter and though i didnt even necessarily disagree with the sermon, my comment was promptly removed. I also assume this one will be removed too. All i have to ask you is did Jesus Himself do what was recommended here? In fact... did He Himself even recommend something like this for others to follow? And is He not the leading authority in that Book?
He said there's no motivation for a man to work if he doesn't have kids but said a single man should work 60-80 hours a week ie two jobs, while he talks for a living lol very contradicting
One of the best things that ever happened to me was my wife getting pregnant when we were "not planning" to have a baby. Caused me to take 21 credit hrs in one semester to finish my grad degree and started applying for hobs in order to provide. My Family is the best thing I have and I am so thankful for God giving us our first son when he did. Boys, pull your pants up, man up, get married, and make a family!
Don't put this man on a pedestal he has a lot of common sense suggestion to be a man. There's a big difference of being male or being called a man or a Man of God that's something your not just called it's earned...
@@My2sense427 So they can’t thank Mark for encouraging men to be Godly men in comparison to the echo chambers that are telling me to go out and sleep with numerous of women, to not marry, to not have children, etc??? How is a simple thank you putting him on a pedestal?
He (Mark) needs to address and encourage Young White men to become men period!! Because you sure heck don't see this stuff going on in the Hispanic culture or community!.....Praise the Lord Jesus Christ (Yeshua HaMashiach)! ✝️
Yep I too was raised by a single mum who was controlling my father left when I was 5 I wouldn't wish this on anyone I will add that this epidemic is just as bad in Australia this country is almost gone there is a very small remnant of true believers and I thank Jesus for the grace to be one I wouldn't have survived without him
I think a lot of western countries in general are struggling with this crisis. Then you have a similar yet different crisis in Japan, South Korea, China, and other asian countries where they don't want relationships or children as a whole. Everything is so backwards.
Agreed. So many men not stepping up to take more responsibility. My employment organisation is made up mostly of female Management. The lower positions are made up mostly of men. I also blame the false gender-quota culture in Australia that seems to prefer women over men in middle management positions.
Im 39, i have two children, im married & my wife is pregnant & i work 11 to 12 hours a day 6 days a week. I didnt grow up with my dad in the house. I want to earn more & be a solid provider, but i dont know how. I pray everyday 2 or more times a day for Gods guidance to lead me to do something more, it just hasnt happened yet. I wont give up, i just need to catch a break. Im not relying on what I can do, Im relying on The Lords guidance.
Having children is a blessing and they are expensive. For a season some women need to contribute, like work from home or doing something to add finances to the household. 5 people to take care of us lot of responsibility. So, look at accessing her skills and see if you can add skills or education, training to your life It takes a lot of money now to make things happen and God will support whatever you put both hands to accomplish
Me, I wasn't all that interested in guns - only on carnival when we dressed up as cowboys 😉 I played wooden ice cream sticks to be street cars in the sand and gravel backyard 😆 but certainly I wasn't interested in dolls...!
20+ years ago when I was a young lawyer, discussing hiring at the firm, one of the senior partners, a woman often said: "we need more young married men with kids and mortgages." In her experience, they were the hardest workers. Her observation, not mine. Oh, and the firm is defunct, so there's no use making trouble for it.
You ever notice that his channel has no dissenting voices? That's not because there are none. He deletes all dissent. That lacks courage. Not much of a man if he can't take criticism.
Mark, agree 100%. However, there is one catch. For the life of me I cannot find a woman worth marrying. I've searched high and low yet here I am alone. It's one bitter pill to swallow realizing there is no prize (wife and family) after dedicating so much blood, sweat, and tears preparing myself to be a good father and husband. Not here to complain as I've given in the towel, but I'm fed up with only hearing that it's men's fault. Are women ever held accountable!?
That's what they all miss. They act like guys don't want to get married. The reality is so few honorable women and 80% of women go for the top 10% of guys and feel like they're settling. Feminism promised women freedom and independence and gave them a 7th century Middle Eastern Harem culture.
Women are as primarily driven to be socially compliant as men are driven to protect & provide. The problem is that the education system of the last 35 years or more has messed up girls' minds about what they should want.
The sloth index is through the roof (sadly). I moved out of the house when I was a senior in high school (Gen X mid-80s). Couldn't wait around till graduation, lol. Bottom line: FEMINISM is the root cause.
Truth! Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
It’s two way street, I’m a single father with full custody and I refuse to date ever again as much as I’d like to I simply don’t trust anyone to be involved in my child’s life after the last few relationships including her mother so I’m tapping out just being a dad and trying to focus on building my empire and teach these lessons onto my daughter. The culture is rotten and depravity is celebrated. You make some good points but feel like you’re missing why all these things are happening it’s no “anomaly” or coincidence it’s by design
That is why it is called the Satanic Six, it is by design. Satan wants to completely destroy every pure and good thing. He revels in the pain, and the mental and spiritual destruction of humanity. As God has given us free will and we are sinful, then Satan uses that weak spot or spots to decemate us to thumb his nose and God and laugh. However, his time is even shorter now and he knows it. It will get worse. Prayer is protection.🌼

We need to abolish no fault divorce and child support. No sane man is going to put his well being in the hands of an entitled woman and hope she doesn't ruin his life when all of a sudden she's not happy.
This is excellent teaching. I'm a Christian Psychologist and from my experience working mostly with Christian men (and knowing my own mistakes) I can give you a hearty amen. Thank you for being you.
4 and a half years ago I was drunk unemployable and a terrible father. To the point I had my kids taken away from me. Around that time I decided to get Sober. Fast forward to today I have primary custody of those kids, I have had a child since then and am also a step father of 6. I got sober for myself (it's a selfish program that's the way it has to be) but I'd be lying if a lot of that wasn't also for my children. I am not a perfect man I still fall short, I still have to pray for forgiveness and guidance, but the reward of being a present and caring father is immeasurable.
THANK YOU for speaking out on what we all know is true. The crisis our nation and world is living through is the result of many generations of failed fathers. This needs to change. Fathers need to step up to become the Dads they're called to be and their children and families need them to be.

Part of this is due to the school system in this country. I have seen more successful young men leave school at age 16, get GED, enter construction or a trade and be more successful as a man than what the public school system is producing. The school system culture is delaying manhood.
OMG yes. I’ve been saying this. They’ve created all these institutions for troubled teens. None of them work, and all of them cause severe trauma. Allow them to drop out and get their own place and enter the work force at 16, that’s what humans did for centuries without kids from broken homes.
I needed this pastor I honestly am blessed to have found this on my feed and was able to follow I love listening to pastors who truly are getting revelations of the seasons we’re in as a generation! In Jesus Name let those who have ears let them listen!🔥🔥🔥

My daughter is with a man that doesnt want to work and cries about everything. Asking her for him to stay at home with the kids but wanting her to do all the chores. He wants three more children even though he does nothing to help with their new baby. Hes forever making fun of her or stressing her out over small things. She says theres a shortage of good men as she has been in and out of relationships prior to this one. Its so sad and i feel sorry for her.
The reason guy's don't want kids or a wife. Is because of all the horror stories. Child court divorce court always siding with the women. Taking the kid's and the life they worked so hard for!! I'm 48 and been through all of it and don't blame them for not wanting it.
The pastor made some good points that we've all heard before, and as usual for those in leadership, stayed silent about the reason many men aren't marrying. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
Lol. Yeah blaming men for women being lesbians. Sorry, 80% of women think they DESERVE the top 10% of men. Modern women are raging narcissists and have destroyed their ability to pair with their promiscuity by the time they graduate college. With the cash and prizes award system the feminist courts set up, women file 80% of divorces. 90%, if they have a degree. It's a suicide pact for even the most alpha of males. Transgenderism and lesbianism is a direct result of the feminist movent. By reversing the gender roles for decades that is of course going to manifest in a very literal and physical sense where women will think they're men and men will think they're women.
If you're going to talk about young men not getting married, you should mention divorce court and marriage laws. That's why alot of young men are embracing mgtow or going overseas to find a wife.
Facts! Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem.

To me, this largely the result of unchurched families and 2) church associations are not fulfilling because pastors are failing to preach Genesis thru Revelation. The simple approach is stop at the 4 Gospels and have "happy church" with lotsa loud music.
So proud of all all my kids, but in the context of this video, my boys. My older son (26) "launched" maybe a little earlier than we expected. He hasn't been other than a visitor at "home" since his freshman year of college- worked in another state all college summers, then went full time there when he graduated. When the pandemic measures caused him to be laid off, he did "gig" work and then found a job in his field 2 states from where he was. Now he is married and doing very well. My younger son (18) does welding school 1/2 the day and works the other half. Lately, we have been talking to him about saving so he can buy a house by about 21. Good young men are out there. I see it in many of my community's sons as well.
I was literally trying to tell a non-christian why I agree that women shouldn't have authority over men in the church. He obviously didn't get it, thinks God makes no sense, but I said to him....where are men going to learn to be men? From their absent father? Their gay teacher? Their female preacher? They need strong male figures who can show them what it means to lead, and to provide and protect those they love. Sadly, toxic and abusive men have tarnished what a real man should be like, and we now praise men who wear wigs and dresses on social media. But the bible says he should be sacrificial, and love his wife like Jesus loves the church. Women have so much power and intelligence that it's so easy for us to take over everything....but is this world really what any of us wanted? Having to work 3 full time jobs (cleaning, cooking, raising kids, and a career)? Then we get told we nag too much cause we expect our husbands to get to our level and help out more, but this in turn hurts their ego and they don't even want to try anymore. They have a second mother who puts them down instead of a wife who encourages them. Since I was in high school a decade ago, as much of an independent tomboy as I was, when I read the bible and made sense of God's design for the family, it was beautiful, and I would happily let my man lead and provide, while I support him and take care of the household. We get less Eve, Delilah, and Sarah scenerios this way imo 😅 God clearly preferred men to do his work and spread the message, kings, priests, judges, disciples, apostles, etc. That doesn't mean women are useless, they have their moments in the bible, but why do we have to compete? Women say they want to be equals, but ask most of us...we don't want to work in sewers, we don't want to be putting up power lines after a storm, we dont want to fight in the military. Yes, some do, but in general, its just not in us. Having children and taking care of ones home or their community is amazing work, but sadly it's not appreciated since it doesn't bring in the money. That's just what our society has done to us :/ Millennials like me don't want to get married cause there is really no benefit. You get a sexual roommate instead of a faithful partner. And the world is too expensive and messed up to even consider kids 🤷🏾♀️
If we handed this generation the economic opportunity of 50 years ago where a guy could have a full time job and provide for his family with kids and get a nice pension and retire around 60 years old I strongly believe we would see the youngest generation launch much more successfully than we see now. We can't hand the youngest generation the economic mess of the past 20 years and expect them to have comparable results to previous generations. I say that as someone who finished college in 2001 and got out and got started in life in just the nick of time. I'm so glad my generation had a better launching pad than the current generation.
Fix the men and fix everything else? In most of your categories I would agree. But in regards to men not getting married, that’s because majority of women are not worth marrying today. Women in the US initiate 70% of all divorce, they are choosing to break apart the family the two individuals started together in the first place. Not to mention 40-50% of marriages fail today anyway. Women also becoming lesbians because there aren’t good men is also pretty ridiculous to say. Women are choosing to participate in that lust all on their own. This is the type of preaching we need, but I’m not sure Pastor Mark can relate to these defeated young men as much as he thinks he does. None the less, no other church leaders and officials are even batting an eye at this crisis so I respect that a lot. I hope this continues to get attention, and I do appreciate your content Pastor Mark.
I agree that men need to get their act together but if you want men to get married then fix the broken marriage law system that is currently rigged against men.
theres a lot distorted here.of course its one view. My parents divorced when I was 21.I didnt have a grandfather figure either.3. generation of divorced and remarried couples. There is no vision for the future having kids.Having kids to let the school brainwash them ? Send them to war?Or some 2030 agenda. We need a better society to support the men that are there.Nobody pulls himself out of a pit. What about better women? Women who dont pursue a career and become lesbians. How to better lead when those suppose to give feedback about the leadership call it patriarchy,tyranny and other nonsense and have no intention to follow? A leader cannot lead alone without anyone being led.
It takes a godly responsible man to teach his children, specially his boys, how to be(come) the next generation of godly responsible man through taking self sacrifice and selfless acts each and every single day.
You can't just ignore the bad economy variable. Rising housing prices and inflation, (arguably caused by the boomer generation) good luck moving out successfully. "I am living on the street but thank God I am better than the person who is still living with his parents who love him." - Christian suffering from pride and self-righteousness.
Funny when I was growing up, I thought I was going to be a player for life and never have kids. I have been faithfully married for 16yrs and have 3 kids. I can say having my family has made my life much better than being single and having no direction in life. My wife has brought me to God and I am working to better my life through Christ to be a better husband and father.
Pastor Mark, You ended it perfectly. WE DON'T NEED BETTER GOVERNMENT WE NEED BETTER MEN! Hallelujah, praise be to Jesus! Thank you TH-cam for giving this man a Platform
I am blind and I married an older man. I firmly believe that our marriage was and is of god. Age and looks weren’t that important but where he stood with God and how he treats me are the important things. it’s been 26 years we are still going strong. I have had a lot of younger men tell me that they wouldn’t comit to a disabled person. for life.
I was born in 1978... Been working since 1996. I just walked from a 23yr career in Aviation Fuels because I absolutely refuse to work for Ukraine. My tax dollars aren't being spent properly so there for I will choose the unemployed homeless combat vet route. It is a sin to continue to fund a tyrannical government.
This is a powerful speech and I totally agree with everything you have said this generation are really weak and it’s our governments that have made people like this with there agendas
Men are going the route of Corinthians. They would rather stay unmarried than risk their livelihoods on the slim possibility of a godly marriage ... or, worse, their family when the woman decides to leave and take the children with her. We don't need to marry to be godly. We don't need to sacrifice ourselves to an ungodly world. And we are finally starting to realize that and the world hates us for it. Even the church is berating us for it. Sorry, but we're done. Besides, "it is good for them to stay unmarried ...."
YES MEN MATTER TO US, CHILDREN, THIS WORLD, AND TO THE GROWTH OF GOD'S KINGDOM. I praise the Lord for this message. All males need to hear this inspiration. We women need to hear it to properly support them and appreciate them. God Bless Father's, Husband's and Godly men living everyday to it's fullest according to Gods will. Yes this video made me subscribe to this channel.
I agree with the family values being promoted in this video. But, promoting being a "successful member of society (in a financial sense)," "launching businesses," etc... in a world the Bible tells us is run by satan, is not good Christian advice. One of the worst things you can do, as a Christian man, is "get yourself two jobs." That is promoting mammon worship. The Bible specifically tells us you cannot worship money & God. One of the worst things you can be is a blind order-follower (the kind of jobs he's telling young men to seek), where you're doing whatever you're told regardless of what is right. You absolutely do NOT need to turn yourself into an NPC like this to get a wife, start a family, etc. It's simply not necessary. Matthew 6:25-34 25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]? 28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you-you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own
Thanks for staying true to this ideal that the LORD has called you to preach. After being unjustly shut down at the 2024 men’s conference by the head pastor, I not only feel burdened for the men of the future, but feel the calling to promote and implicate these disciplines in my life. I won’t allow myself or my children to be castrates by a wicked culture. Don’t grow weary in doing good, Pastor. Us as men cannot tolerate or compromise. We cannot be dominated.
I totally enjoy listening to your logic. Another reason men aren't marrying is because many of today's Western Women are raised with the attitudes that they don't need men for happiness or anything else.
I'm still going to tell my son to wait as long as possible to start a family because his chance of meeting a decent woman will be even slimmer than my chances were.
Did he just call older men dirty. Like we don't have any genuine love to give no matter who. And that we need to buy someone to love. What a horrible thing to say.
He worships single moms. I'm 40 and a long line of pretty girls are interested. In me. Like it's my fault women my own age a are infertile and divorced their husbands. I'm supposed to find some needle in haystack 40yo woman. When there's a ton of pretty submissive fit young girls who would love to follow. And they are naturally attracted to and respect older men. 30+ women don't even flirt w me. It's 29-18
This cant be 100%. Christ himself did not marry. The spiritual conflict within a person is not resolved by merely maintaining a status quo. We do have to grow as men AND women, but it doesnt mean that the men who came before us, who were motivated to do all of what you said through lust, greed, worldliness, shallow mindedness, and ego were all right. Or else we'd have nothing to grow up to... If you follow Christ, his message is a spiritual one that did not directly involve any of what this pastor is saying. I dont trust him.

@@incognitoblack8661 Christians divorce as often as non-believers. Women are often incentivized to divorce. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
Ben Carson was raised without a father but by a solidly Christian mom. Pastor EV Hill was raised by a Christian mom with no father. There are thousands of examples of godly women who raised strong men of God. God compensates for women who are abandoned by men if they remain faithful to Him. There are women who hate men but most of those have been damaged by men. The Lord is a Father to the fatherless. His word says so. Its not a “bitter woman” problem. Its a “not knowing Jesus intimately as a parent” problem.
Much of the fatherlessness is due to the courts taking children away from the fathers for no good reason. A mother will lie in court and do her best to alienate the children from their father. It's an epidemic.
Facts! Men alone can't fix this. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
I have 4 boys that are well step sons even though I do not claim them as such,that being said, I came into their lives as teens and one was 21. I have done what I can to help give them a push to be their own "man" and for the most part they are doing well,with God's grace they will mature like they should.
I have to strongly disagree with the kid thing. Being a parent is a responsibility that should NEVER be taken lightly. One of the problems is there are too many parents that shouldn't have ever had kids.
I'm a father of 2 beautiful daughter's and myself and my wife of 21 years have rasied them up in church their entire lives. Girl's need father's just as much as boy's do.
Hey man, as a young, single guy, I feel some of that as well, but hopefully this will be encouraging to you too: read the first few verses of Jeremiah 29. Jeremiah is writing to the Israelites in Babylonian captivity. Although not a one to one comparison with what we see in Revelation, I’m sure their world felt dark and hopeless too. Nevertheless, God tells them to build houses, plant gardens, get married and have kids. He even tells them to “seek the welfare of the city (of their captors).” Don’t let the dark overpower the light in your life. If you have the desire to be a father, I’d say that’s God-given and to pursue it! Children are a blessing from the Lord. Also if I might add, no man knows the hour (Matt 24). I feel like we could see these things come to pass in my lifetime, but I can’t be sure. It could happen tomorrow or a thousand years from now; our commands to walk in the light and be a light are the same. If the contents of revelation don’t unfold quickly, we’re gonna need to build godly homes and train up the next generation of believers. If you think God’s given you a heart for this, I guarantee He’ll be with you through it all. God bless, brother!
@jenniferwyatt8945 Let me rephrase. If God decides to bless me with a child, I would be overjoyed. If it happens, it happens. His will be done. I will not personally go out of my way to seek a woman who wants children. I have faith that if He wants me to find one, I will. As for the world always being a hard place? You're right. I never said it hadn't. All I stated was that it is getting worse. Anything else you need clarification on?
@@zSwS Well said. Choose wisely and pray without ceasing before getting married. The odds are firmly stacked against you in family court and Christians divorce as often as non believers.

@MarkDriscollMinistries This cant be 100%.
Christ himself did not marry. The spiritual conflict within a person is not resolved by merely maintaining a status quo. We do have to grow as men AND women, but it doesnt mean that the men who came before us, many or most of whom were motivated to do all of what you said through lust, greed, worldliness, shallow mindedness, and ego were altogetger right. Or else we'd have nothing to grow up to and away from...
If you follow Christ, his message is a spiritual one that did not directly involve any of what you are saying. I cant trust your message even if it is well intentioned.
This is not to say that what you are saying is wrong... but it is only one barren and lifeless side of the story.
We all know when we are walking in the Spirit and not weak in the flesh... spiritual freedom has always been gradually won like the story of Christ in the desert. In an odd way, rejection of stress and faith in the worldly things you demand, makes at least myself better at doing them... and better at doing them honestly/naturally. And i think this may be because any orderly thing i do in this world must be done in the Service of God and for the sake of heaven for all his Creation, and not primarily for me to be the "Best" or "Good" man.
I am Willing to believe that God Will Guide me if my Goal is Right... that I am dependent on God... if not then what are we even believing in?
@@MotownModelsYes in seeing how Christians interact with people like you am i increasingly disillusioned. Certain messages seem to lead them to settle and feel comfortable in certain ways of being. The change we need begins as an internal one that it expresses itself to the outside... it cannot just a surface appearance doing of things on the outside. It just cant be and i refuse to believe it.
Edit: But i will say this as i am being fully transparent. My experience has shown me that what you are calling "freedom" is by far the exact opposite. The Christian message is still a beautiful and saving one from what i can gather, and just because individuals can spurn you while like me-- attempting to call themselves Christian or while attempting their best to properly interpret things (theyre only human); it doesnt mean that you have to select an opposite extreme as your solution away from them. If you were outside the flesh, would you truly direct it to do such frivolous things with inevitable internal consequences? If the answer is no, then did you ever truly exercise your own freedom when you chose those things? The sane question can apply to Mark Driscoll's message in fairness--i dont think God made billions of individuals to grow ideally in that one way he advises. Many have tried and many have failed as a result of even doing it.
"We don't need bigger government, we just need better men"
Excellent teaching. Thank you Pastor.
Joe Biden is a product of an era when times were supposedly better. Explain that. Same with Hillary Clinton, Nancy Pelosi, Joseph Stalin,
GLOBAL Supremacists and WOKE ENEMIES: My Children and I are NOT YOUR PROPERTY. Cease and desist death threats, poisoning, all harassment and abuse
ALL because these men were raised by their mothers WITHOUT a father. I was one of them. Born in 1980 coddled by my mother while my father was belittled and removed. I ended up a homeless alcoholic drug addict and by the grace of God finally grew up. I am now the father of 2 children and am doing everything I can with the help of Jesus Christ to take care of them and their mother. Someday I will rekindle the relationship with my mother when she is done hating men.
God bless you and praise the Lord for His work that He has done in your life
She May need a gentle view and voice before continuing to abandon her. She is missing real love. She needs Jesus and God. But you could be that bridge.

My son hasn't been able to find a decent woman that wants a relationship or marriage and family. They either have several babies from different men or do drugs. This society is messed up.
That’s a reason why men are refusing to marry nowadays.
I’ve already told mine he’ll need to go overseas to find a good woman. These American women ain’t gonna cut it.

A decent woman for marriage, first she must be childless.
It’s always easier to gaslight men as this pastor is doing instead of addressing the problems that made men react accordingly. Men just adapted to the broken system that was laid out in front of them and it was applauded as inclusive and progressive.

This is a ted talk not a sermon. I think its helpful but there's no gospel here.
Amen! Every middle school too!
Nah, imo youre just hearing a nice monologue--a good man's opinion about how he wants society to be and what he thinks will save many. I THINK dissenting voices and comments are deleted here too and so you only receive this one man's well spoken opinion with very little apparent counter opinion(and they dont need to be combative or aggressive commebts to be deleted either). I say that he may be boiling down and distilling virtue to his own narrow path. And though I respect his point of view, peoples' experiences show that he clearly hasnt stumbled upon a panacea. The path he mentioned has not protected many people from spiritual or even earthly ruin. Those who are neither prepared nor compatible with it have made systems dysfunctional and dreadful. Those who are compatible with it often become bullies of those who they consider weak or those who God would have likely fulfilled had they simply gone a different route.
I assume that this mah's advice backfires often only because for many the motivation to act on this kind of advice is based on a belief and fear of the world rather than a Faith in one's own sufficiency and dependence in God. Im not saying that he is wrong at all, but maybe that the well-adjusted life he has won is not the goal, but rather the symptom of doing things right on the inside. If it is the goal before God... well that becomes idolatry and worship of the god of this world: Satan... doesnt it? Maybe im wrong, but i still want this side of the story to be considered.
I believe i had something more worthy to say on the matter and though i didnt even necessarily disagree with the sermon, my comment was promptly removed. I also assume this one will be removed too. All i have to ask you is did Jesus Himself do what was recommended here? In fact... did He Himself even recommend something like this for others to follow? And is He not the leading authority in that Book?
Every parent should remove their children from the high school indoctrination programs. Self responsibility...
He said there's no motivation for a man to work if he doesn't have kids but said a single man should work 60-80 hours a week ie two jobs, while he talks for a living lol very contradicting
One of the best things that ever happened to me was my wife getting pregnant when we were "not planning" to have a baby. Caused me to take 21 credit hrs in one semester to finish my grad degree and started applying for hobs in order to provide.

I think a lot of western countries in general are struggling with this crisis. Then you have a similar yet different crisis in Japan, South Korea, China, and other asian countries where they don't want relationships or children as a whole. Everything is so backwards.
Its pretty shagged here. The trades are half gone. Housings wrecked. And as you say being a christian is very much the outlier now days.
Yep to all the above.
Agreed. So many men not stepping up to take more responsibility. My employment organisation is made up mostly of female Management. The lower positions are made up mostly of men. I also blame the false gender-quota culture in Australia that seems to prefer women over men in middle management positions.

Having children is a blessing and they are expensive.

So, look at accessing her skills and see if you can add skills or education, training to your life It takes a lot of money now to make things happen and God will support whatever you put both hands to accomplish

You ever notice that his channel has no dissenting voices? That's not because there are none. He deletes all dissent. That lacks courage. Not much of a man if he can't take criticism.
Mark, agree 100%. However, there is one catch. For the life of me I cannot find a woman worth marrying. I've searched high and low yet here I am alone. It's one bitter pill to swallow realizing there is no prize (wife and family) after dedicating so much blood, sweat, and tears preparing myself to be a good father and husband.
Not here to complain as I've given in the towel, but I'm fed up with only hearing that it's men's fault. Are women ever held accountable!?
Truth.
That's what they all miss. They act like guys don't want to get married.
The reality is so few honorable women and 80% of women go for the top 10% of guys and feel like they're settling.
Feminism promised women freedom and independence and gave them a 7th century Middle Eastern Harem culture.
You will find her brother. Just keep searching🙏🏻
Word. Women never get held accountable
Women are as primarily driven to be socially compliant as men are driven to protect & provide. The problem is that the education system of the last 35 years or more has messed up girls' minds about what they should want.
The sloth index is through the roof (sadly). I moved out of the house when I was a senior in high school (Gen X mid-80s). Couldn't wait around till graduation, lol. Bottom line: FEMINISM is the root cause.
Agreed.
Truth! Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
It’s two way street, I’m a single father with full custody and I refuse to date ever again as much as I’d like to I simply don’t trust anyone to be involved in my child’s life after the last few relationships including her mother so I’m tapping out just being a dad and trying to focus on building my empire and teach these lessons onto my daughter. The culture is rotten and depravity is celebrated. You make some good points but feel like you’re missing why all these things are happening it’s no “anomaly” or coincidence it’s by design
That is why it is called the Satanic Six, it is by design. Satan wants to completely destroy every pure and good thing. He revels in the pain, and the mental and spiritual destruction of humanity. As God has given us free will and we are sinful, then Satan uses that weak spot or spots to decemate us to thumb his nose and God and laugh. However, his time is even shorter now and he knows it. It will get worse. Prayer is protection.🌼
Exactly! It's all by design. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem.

We need to abolish no fault divorce and child support. No sane man is going to put his well being in the hands of an entitled woman and hope she doesn't ruin his life when all of a sudden she's not happy.

4 and a half years ago I was drunk unemployable and a terrible father. To the point I had my kids taken away from me. Around that time I decided to get Sober. Fast forward to today I have primary custody of those kids, I have had a child since then and am also a step father of 6. I got sober for myself (it's a selfish program that's the way it has to be) but I'd be lying if a lot of that wasn't also for my children. I am not a perfect man I still fall short, I still have to pray for forgiveness and guidance, but the reward of being a present and caring father is immeasurable.
Once again Pastor Mark is hitting the target on all Points. Appreciate your Ministry. Andrew Tate is NOT the example young men need.
That's why Christians get a bad name because they are judgemental why don't you pray for Andrew Tate God values his soul just as much as yours.

Oh no he’s not!
THANK YOU for speaking out on what we all know is true. The crisis our nation and world is living through is the result of many generations of failed fathers. This needs to change. Fathers need to step up to become the Dads they're called to be and their children and families need them to be.

Whatever you do, work at it with all your heart, as working for the Lord, not for human masters (Colossians 3:23)
Part of this is due to the school system in this country. I have seen more successful young men leave school at age 16, get GED, enter construction or a trade and be more successful as a man than what the public school system is producing. The school system culture is delaying manhood.
OMG yes. I’ve been saying this. They’ve created all these institutions for troubled teens. None of them work, and all of them cause severe trauma. Allow them to drop out and get their own place and enter the work force at 16, that’s what humans did for centuries without kids from broken homes.
I needed this pastor I honestly am blessed to have found this on my feed and was able to follow I love listening to pastors who truly are getting revelations of the seasons we’re in as a generation! In Jesus Name let those who have ears let them listen!🔥🔥🔥

He wants three more children even though he does nothing to help with their new baby. Hes forever making fun of her or stressing her out over small things. She says theres a shortage of good men as she has been in and out of relationships prior to this one. Its so sad and i feel sorry for her.
And more preachers that preach like bold men like Pastor Mark.
The reason guy's don't want kids or a wife. Is because of all the horror stories. Child court divorce court always siding with the women. Taking the kid's and the life they worked so hard for!! I'm 48 and been through all of it and don't blame them for not wanting it.
@Meriah7 didn't miss the point. Was giving a reason why. Toxic femininity and the court system.
The pastor made some good points that we've all heard before, and as usual for those in leadership, stayed silent about the reason many men aren't marrying. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
Lol. Yeah blaming men for women being lesbians. Sorry, 80% of women think they DESERVE the top 10% of men. Modern women are raging narcissists and have destroyed their ability to pair with their promiscuity by the time they graduate college.
With the cash and prizes award system the feminist courts set up, women file 80% of divorces. 90%, if they have a degree. It's a suicide pact for even the most alpha of males.
Transgenderism and lesbianism is a direct result of the feminist movent. By reversing the gender roles for decades that is of course going to manifest in a very literal and physical sense where women will think they're men and men will think they're women.
If you're going to talk about young men not getting married, you should mention divorce court and marriage laws. That's why alot of young men are embracing mgtow or going overseas to find a wife.

To late now! You should have been waving this flag 40 years ago!
To me, this largely the result of unchurched families and 2) church associations are not fulfilling because pastors are failing to preach Genesis thru Revelation. The simple approach is stop at the 4 Gospels and have "happy church" with lotsa loud music.

So proud of all all my kids, but in the context of this video, my boys. My older son (26) "launched" maybe a little earlier than we expected. He hasn't been other than a visitor at "home" since his freshman year of college- worked in another state all college summers, then went full time there when he graduated. When the pandemic measures caused him to be laid off, he did "gig" work and then found a job in his field 2 states from where he was. Now he is married and doing very well. My younger son (18) does welding school 1/2 the day and works the other half. Lately, we have been talking to him about saving so he can buy a house by about 21. Good young men are out there. I see it in many of my community's sons as well.
I was literally trying to tell a non-christian why I agree that women shouldn't have authority over men in the church. He obviously didn't get it, thinks God makes no sense, but I said to him....where are men going to learn to be men? From their absent father? Their gay teacher? Their female preacher? They need strong male figures who can show them what it means to lead, and to provide and protect those they love. Sadly, toxic and abusive men have tarnished what a real man should be like, and we now praise men who wear wigs and dresses on social media. But the bible says he should be sacrificial, and love his wife like Jesus loves the church. Women have so much power and intelligence that it's so easy for us to take over everything....but is this world really what any of us wanted? Having to work 3 full time jobs (cleaning, cooking, raising kids, and a career)? Then we get told we nag too much cause we expect our husbands to get to our level and help out more, but this in turn hurts their ego and they don't even want to try anymore. They have a second mother who puts them down instead of a wife who encourages them. Since I was in high school a decade ago, as much of an independent tomboy as I was, when I read the bible and made sense of God's design for the family, it was beautiful, and I would happily let my man lead and provide, while I support him and take care of the household. We get less Eve, Delilah, and Sarah scenerios this way imo 😅 God clearly preferred men to do his work and spread the message, kings, priests, judges, disciples, apostles, etc. That doesn't mean women are useless, they have their moments in the bible, but why do we have to compete? Women say they want to be equals, but ask most of us...we don't want to work in sewers, we don't want to be putting up power lines after a storm, we dont want to fight in the military. Yes, some do, but in general, its just not in us. Having children and taking care of ones home or their community is amazing work, but sadly it's not appreciated since it doesn't bring in the money. That's just what our society has done to us :/ Millennials like me don't want to get married cause there is really no benefit. You get a sexual roommate instead of a faithful partner. And the world is too expensive and messed up to even consider kids 🤷🏾♀️
AMEN!
If we handed this generation the economic opportunity of 50 years ago where a guy could have a full time job and provide for his family with kids and get a nice pension and retire around 60 years old I strongly believe we would see the youngest generation launch much more successfully than we see now. We can't hand the youngest generation the economic mess of the past 20 years and expect them to have comparable results to previous generations. I say that as someone who finished college in 2001 and got out and got started in life in just the nick of time. I'm so glad my generation had a better launching pad than the current generation.
Thank you for saying this!
😂😂😂😂😂😂
Fix the men and fix everything else? In most of your categories I would agree. But in regards to men not getting married, that’s because majority of women are not worth marrying today. Women in the US initiate 70% of all divorce, they are choosing to break apart the family the two individuals started together in the first place. Not to mention 40-50% of marriages fail today anyway.
Women also becoming lesbians because there aren’t good men is also pretty ridiculous to say. Women are choosing to participate in that lust all on their own.
This is the type of preaching we need, but I’m not sure Pastor Mark can relate to these defeated young men as much as he thinks he does. None the less, no other church leaders and officials are even batting an eye at this crisis so I respect that a lot. I hope this continues to get attention, and I do appreciate your content Pastor Mark.
correct , ... i never knew my dad - been living poor for a long time ,
but God makes me rich
Thank you br. Mark. Keep providing and beating the drum on the solution, biblically based, and sound teaching.
I agree that men need to get their act together but if you want men to get married then fix the broken marriage law system that is currently rigged against men.
Absolutely!
Exactly!
It’s hard for some men to get married when most young women in the church are looking for Christian versions of Ryan Gosling.
100% fact right here
This is soooooooo good Mark
theres a lot distorted here.of course its one view.
My parents divorced when I was 21.I didnt have a grandfather figure either.3. generation of divorced and remarried couples.
There is no vision for the future having kids.Having kids to let the school brainwash them ?
Send them to war?Or some 2030 agenda.
We need a better society to support the men that are there.Nobody pulls himself out of a pit.
What about better women?
Women who dont pursue a career and become lesbians.
How to better lead when those suppose to give feedback about the leadership call it patriarchy,tyranny and other nonsense and have no intention to follow?
A leader cannot lead alone without anyone being led.
It takes a godly responsible man to teach his children, specially his boys, how to be(come) the next generation of godly responsible man through taking self sacrifice and selfless acts each and every single day.
You can't just ignore the bad economy variable. Rising housing prices and inflation, (arguably caused by the boomer generation) good luck moving out successfully. "I am living on the street but thank God I am better than the person who is still living with his parents who love him." - Christian suffering from pride and self-righteousness.
Very good sermon.
Thank you for posting.
Funny when I was growing up, I thought I was going to be a player for life and never have kids. I have been faithfully married for 16yrs and have 3 kids. I can say having my family has made my life much better than being single and having no direction in life. My wife has brought me to God and I am working to better my life through Christ to be a better husband and father.
Pastor Mark,
You ended it perfectly.
WE DON'T NEED BETTER GOVERNMENT WE NEED BETTER MEN!
Hallelujah, praise be to Jesus!
Thank you TH-cam for giving this man a Platform
Wow! Most truthful sermon I've heard in awhile. He says what people need to hear, not what they want to hear.
Wow Mark.... your a coward for not mentioning women are a big part of the problem.
Hey pastor Mark don't hate on older men that are married to younger women they been doing it since the beginning of time...
Exactly
So because an action has been occurring since “the beginning of time” doesn’t make it ok for a Pastor to present as a Godly choice.
I am blind and I married an older man. I firmly believe that our marriage was and is of god. Age and looks weren’t that important but where he stood with God and how he treats me are the important things. it’s been 26 years we are still going strong. I have had a lot of younger men tell me that they wouldn’t comit to a disabled person. for life.
Not just men. My daughter too. Kids are getting their driver licenses way later too
That’s probably not a bad thing. Looking back it’s kinda scary that I was 16 and driving. I was such an idiot back then
I was born in 1978... Been working since 1996. I just walked from a 23yr career in Aviation Fuels because I absolutely refuse to work for Ukraine. My tax dollars aren't being spent properly so there for I will choose the unemployed homeless combat vet route. It is a sin to continue to fund a tyrannical government.
How did you work for Ukraine?
Also I work my ass off, but cannot afford a home or to support a family.
This is a powerful speech and I totally agree with everything you have said this generation are really weak and it’s our governments that have made people like this with there agendas
Men are going the route of Corinthians. They would rather stay unmarried than risk their livelihoods on the slim possibility of a godly marriage ... or, worse, their family when the woman decides to leave and take the children with her.
We don't need to marry to be godly. We don't need to sacrifice ourselves to an ungodly world. And we are finally starting to realize that and the world hates us for it. Even the church is berating us for it. Sorry, but we're done. Besides, "it is good for them to stay unmarried ...."
Amen brother as lobg as you work and love God almighty nothing else matters.
YES MEN MATTER TO US, CHILDREN, THIS WORLD, AND TO THE GROWTH OF GOD'S KINGDOM. I praise the Lord for this message. All males need to hear this inspiration. We women need to hear it to properly support them and appreciate them. God Bless Father's, Husband's and Godly men living everyday to it's fullest according to Gods will. Yes this video made me subscribe to this channel.
We’ll said and agree!
terriebrown3462
I subscribed too, only because of this preaching!
This is exactly what we all needed to hear and know.
I agree with the family values being promoted in this video. But,
promoting being a "successful member of society (in a financial sense)," "launching businesses," etc... in a world the Bible tells us is run by satan, is not good Christian advice.
One of the worst things you can do, as a Christian man, is "get yourself two jobs." That is promoting mammon worship. The Bible specifically tells us you cannot worship money & God.
One of the worst things you can be is a blind order-follower (the kind of jobs he's telling young men to seek), where you're doing whatever you're told regardless of what is right.
You absolutely do NOT need to turn yourself into an NPC like this to get a wife, start a family, etc. It's simply not necessary.
Matthew 6:25-34
25 “Therefore I tell you, do not worry about your life, what you will eat or drink; or about your body, what you will wear. Is not life more than food, and the body more than clothes? 26 Look at the birds of the air; they do not sow or reap or store away in barns, and yet your heavenly Father feeds them. Are you not much more valuable than they? 27 Can any one of you by worrying add a single hour to your life[a]?
28 “And why do you worry about clothes? See how the flowers of the field grow. They do not labor or spin. 29 Yet I tell you that not even Solomon in all his splendor was dressed like one of these. 30 If that is how God clothes the grass of the field, which is here today and tomorrow is thrown into the fire, will he not much more clothe you-you of little faith? 31 So do not worry, saying, ‘What shall we eat?’ or ‘What shall we drink?’ or ‘What shall we wear?’ 32 For the pagans run after all these things, and your heavenly Father knows that you need them. 33 But seek first his kingdom and his righteousness, and all these things will be given to you as well. 34 Therefore do not worry about tomorrow, for tomorrow will worry about itself. Each day has enough trouble of its own
Incredible sermon!
Crystal clear, on point, teaching of The Word.
Thank God.
Exactly! I'm a Life Coach for teens and young adults. I see this firsthand with young men. Great message. Disturbing, but true statistics.
But not for the reasons he's saying.
?
Thanks for staying true to this ideal that the LORD has called you to preach. After being unjustly shut down at the 2024 men’s conference by the head pastor, I not only feel burdened for the men of the future, but feel the calling to promote and implicate these disciplines in my life. I won’t allow myself or my children to be castrates by a wicked culture.
Don’t grow weary in doing good, Pastor. Us as men cannot tolerate or compromise. We cannot be dominated.
Such a good word!!! 🙏🏼
I totally enjoy listening to your logic. Another reason men aren't marrying is because many of today's Western Women are raised with the attitudes that they don't need men for happiness or anything else.
Absolute TRUTH !
I'm still going to tell my son to wait as long as possible to start a family because his chance of meeting a decent woman will be even slimmer than my chances were.
Amen Brother. This sermon needs to be beamed into every head in America.
Did he just call older men dirty. Like we don't have any genuine love to give no matter who. And that we need to buy someone to love. What a horrible thing to say.
He worships single moms. I'm 40 and a long line of pretty girls are interested. In me. Like it's my fault women my own age a are infertile and divorced their husbands. I'm supposed to find some needle in haystack 40yo woman. When there's a ton of pretty submissive fit young girls who would love to follow. And they are naturally attracted to and respect older men. 30+ women don't even flirt w me. It's 29-18
amen 100
This cant be 100%.
Christ himself did not marry. The spiritual conflict within a person is not resolved by merely maintaining a status quo. We do have to grow as men AND women, but it doesnt mean that the men who came before us, who were motivated to do all of what you said through lust, greed, worldliness, shallow mindedness, and ego were all right. Or else we'd have nothing to grow up to...
If you follow Christ, his message is a spiritual one that did not directly involve any of what this pastor is saying. I dont trust him.
It is not to say that what he is saying is wrong... but it is only one barren and lifeless side of the story.
The enemy is after our men and he is winning...I went through this 10 years ago 😢 Now that husband is dead
Overmothered, under fathered, big problem in our country. Effects both boys and girls.
He forgot to mention that marriage is a losing proposition for men. You can get destroyed in divorce court. It’s simply not worth it
You won’t divorce if God is in the middle of your marriage
@@incognitoblack8661 Christians divorce as often as non-believers. Women are often incentivized to divorce. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
I'm sorry... Praying for hope and restoration to overtake you in Jesus name...
@@debbebunch9973 He has His work cut out for Him,, but Christ is King...
@@incognitoblack8661For majority of women, God really isn't though
Ben Carson was raised without a father but by a solidly Christian mom. Pastor EV Hill was raised by a Christian mom with no father. There are thousands of examples of godly women who raised strong men of God. God compensates for women who are abandoned by men if they remain faithful to Him. There are women who hate men but most of those have been damaged by men. The Lord is a Father to the fatherless. His word says so. Its not a “bitter woman” problem. Its a “not knowing Jesus intimately as a parent” problem.
Much of the fatherlessness is due to the courts taking children away from the fathers for no good reason. A mother will lie in court and do her best to alienate the children from their father. It's an epidemic.
Facts! Men alone can't fix this. Family courts that are hostile to men and that have essentially delivered men into bondage and given the authority to women is the source of the problem. Until that's fixed, the dysfunction will only get worse. Nobody will talk about that elephant in the room though, let alone work to fix it.
Courts of the devil run by adulterers.
I have 4 boys that are well step sons even though I do not claim them as such,that being said, I came into their lives as teens and one was 21. I have done what I can to help give them a push to be their own "man" and for the most part they are doing well,with God's grace they will mature like they should.
I have to strongly disagree with the kid thing. Being a parent is a responsibility that should NEVER be taken lightly. One of the problems is there are too many parents that shouldn't have ever had kids.
I'm a father of 2 beautiful daughter's and myself and my wife of 21 years have rasied them up in church their entire lives. Girl's need father's just as much as boy's do.
What is dead, may never die but comes back stronger!
Mark kicks ass
Not this time.
This will not be reversed.
If things are So bad with men Not having Father's Preach On The Awesome Strength God Gave Mothers!
Praise the lord! Through Christ we are the light in the darkness and the salt of the Earth! Lets give our future generations a fighting chance!
Appreciate this so much!! Thank you pastor Driscoll. From South Africa❤
I would love to be a father. I'm just not bringing a kid into a world that's trending towards Revelations.
Hey man, as a young, single guy, I feel some of that as well, but hopefully this will be encouraging to you too: read the first few verses of Jeremiah 29. Jeremiah is writing to the Israelites in Babylonian captivity. Although not a one to one comparison with what we see in Revelation, I’m sure their world felt dark and hopeless too. Nevertheless, God tells them to build houses, plant gardens, get married and have kids. He even tells them to “seek the welfare of the city (of their captors).” Don’t let the dark overpower the light in your life. If you have the desire to be a father, I’d say that’s God-given and to pursue it! Children are a blessing from the Lord.
Also if I might add, no man knows the hour (Matt 24). I feel like we could see these things come to pass in my lifetime, but I can’t be sure. It could happen tomorrow or a thousand years from now; our commands to walk in the light and be a light are the same.
If the contents of revelation don’t unfold quickly, we’re gonna need to build godly homes and train up the next generation of believers. If you think God’s given you a heart for this, I guarantee He’ll be with you through it all. God bless, brother!
The world has always been a hard place, God says " Be fruitful, and multiply"
@jenniferwyatt8945 Let me rephrase. If God decides to bless me with a child, I would be overjoyed. If it happens, it happens. His will be done. I will not personally go out of my way to seek a woman who wants children. I have faith that if He wants me to find one, I will. As for the world always being a hard place? You're right. I never said it hadn't. All I stated was that it is getting worse. Anything else you need clarification on?
@@zSwS Well said. Choose wisely and pray without ceasing before getting married. The odds are firmly stacked against you in family court and Christians divorce as often as non believers.
This pastor is sent by God, for sure. Everything he says is 100% correct.
True by the time I was 22 I was in the military been on my first deployment and 2 kids
