The questions men asked

Just finished reading Why men hate going to church? It is a thought provoking book, though as always with American based books part of the challenge in thinking about it is working out how reflective the trends it highlights in US Churches are of British churches. Wouldn't it be great to have a book specifically researched and written in the context of British churches.

One of the best chapters in the book was about teaching and the masculine spirit, the challenge as Murrow sees it is dor our churcehs to be places where men are learning. He says we need to ask men great questions, not simply give them easy answers, and addressing the questions that men have in our preaching, here are his ten questions:

1. What is true manliness?
2. What is success?
3. How do I deal with guilt feelings?
4. What is male sexuality? Is purity possible for the modern man?
5. How can we nurture family life?
6. What is Christian leadership? How is it developed?
7. What are the basic disciplines of the Christian man?
8. What ministry skills need to be developed? How?
9. What is biblical business conduct?
10. What is integrity? How is it developed?

I wonder if men in church in Britain today would agree that they are the questions they'd love teaching on?
