Requirements for Men's Ministry
Thursday, August 20th, 2009One of my roles is to organise the men’s ministry for our evening church. I have therefore been doing some thorough research from various blogs and podcasts and have compiled a list of requirements for men’s ministries:
- Be masculine. That is: be hypermasculine. Your men’s ministry must be the most manly, active, brutal experience the men in your church have ever faced.
- You must name your ministry with a hypermasculine name. Include words like ‘fight’, ‘club’, ‘war’ and ‘battle’. Do not use the words ‘ministry’, ‘care’, ‘group’ or ‘support’.
- Meat. Preferably raw meat. BBQ it, eat it.
- Paint ball, footy and cars are allowed. Books, singing and lettuce are not.
- The leader must shout. When giving a talk, it must be shouted.
- Ultimate Fighting is the sport of choice.
Let me know if you think I’ve missed anything.
