Masculinity has come under scrutiny recently with the rise of toxic masculinity labels for some things that are toxic and some that are not. There is a biblical truth for masculinity though. A truth that allows Believers and followers of Christ to understand and embrace God’s perspective of masculinity.

Marcus Pierre has a wealth knowledge on the biblical truth for masculinity and shares it here.

Marcus Pierre is an author and speaker who is passionate about edifying the body of Christ through God’s Word so that they can thrive in their God-given identity and purpose. He couples scripture with thought-provoking practical principles to educate others on what it means to be a believer and follower of Jesus Christ.

As a man living in today’s society, Marcus has witnessed the dichotomy between masculinity from the Kingdom perspective and the cultural perspective. Through his own life experiences and growth, Marcus seeks to empower men with biblical truth so that they can defy culture and live according to God’s view of masculinity.

If you haven’t already, then over the next few weeks you’ll likely start to hear prophets giving prophetic forecasts for the year. If you or anyone you follow goes by the Hebraic calendar then you have likely heard that this is the year of open doors.

God has called me to teach and equip or build up, so while I don’t have a word for the body for the year like a prophet does, I do have instructions for how we should posture ourselves to put us in the best spiritual position for what’s to come in 2024. There will be moves of God and moves of the kingdom of darkness. Some of the doors opening in 2024 will be doors of great opportunity and great promise that have actually been opened by the enemy.
