Mums and Dads

Sure there are so many ways that the church repels men from the gospel. But one of the more obvious symptoms is the comparison of mother's day and father's day sermons.

David Murrow describes it as "Mum's, you're great. Dad's, you better shape up." but finds it unscriptural to suggest that women have less need of God's redemption.

Anyway, i bring it up because (as father's day has just passed in the usa) Jon Acuff has done a hilarious example of the kind of things that are said on these two days. Sad thing is that even though it is meant as satire, it's only a slight exaggeration on the truth.

Moms are amazing. They are like human unicorns, special, beautiful, smelling of lavender and night jasmine, deserving of our gratitude and our complete affection and pedicures....

Dads, what are you doing? Seriously, get your act together!....
