My first blog

Well everyone this is my first attempt at a blog post, so I'm not really sure about exactly where I am going with this. I have felt the desire to start a blog about being a manly Christian for some time, but have kept putting it off for several years until now.
I firmly believe that God has been pushing me toward this for some time now, though I have been ignoring the call for some time just like I have done before. Recently I have found a new church to attend, and an ongoing topic has been the book of Job. Just like Job ran from God's desire, I too have ran but am now submitting 100%. In addition to submitting to this call, I also believe that God has bigger plans to come for me and look forward to the opportunity to serve him more fully!
My goal with this blog is to provide a blessing and to uplift other men who may have a tough time carrying his cross and living in such a sinful world. I will likely get into my opinion of politics, but will strive to give a Biblical perspective of these political opinions. Most of my topics will be about daily living while raising a family. Some topics I have in mind for future blogs are as follows:
-Balancing a family life and career in a Christian household
-Divorce in today's societal context and Biblical context
-Abortion and the Bible
-Alcohol and the Christian life
-Family and the church
-Biblical callings and commands for men
-The role of men in the church, and women
-Raising Godly children
-Book reviews
-Homosexuality
-Disputes in marriage
-Sexuality in marriage
-The Bible verse in my signature, Joshua 24:15
-Anything else that I can think of in current events, or anything that comes to mind
My next blog will be my personal testimony, who I am, where I come from, how I was saved, and some info on myself and my family.
Thanks for reading and I look forward to you following me and giving me feedback and advice. Constructive criticism is welcomed, attacks and not uplifting criticisims will not be tolerated, we are all here to uplift and make each man here stronger than we began!
Yours in Christ,
Bill Higgins
Joshua 24:15- "And if it seem evil unto you to serve the Lord, choose you this day whom you will serve; whether the gods which your fathers served that were on the other side of the flood, or the goods of the Amorites, in whose land ye dwell: but as for me and my house, WE WILL SERVE THE LORD."
