Mobilize Your Men to Meet Pressing Needs

About the Videos

These three videos will teach you about the three types of pressing needs churches generally have and specifically what kinds of pressing needs widows, single moms, and fatherless children often have. You will also learn how the love of Christ is unique to Christians and how practicing the love of Christ meets the pressing needs of widows and single moms. Finally, you will learn the specifics of the men's team ministry model and how this model can reflect the love of Christ for widows, single moms, and fatherless children in our particular culture.

Note: This is important information that requires time to study and learn. It might be tempting to just download the transcripts and read them. But I encourage you to also watch the videos. You will retain much more of the material if you do.

All videos can be downloaded and distributed by watching the video and clicking on the download icon at the bottom. Transcripts and handouts can also be downloaded and distributed.
