If you take virtually every problem in America today, at the root of it you will find the failure of a man (e.g. 93% of prisoners are male and 85% of these come from fatherless homes). Today there are approximately 98,000,000 men in America, 63,000,000 of which don't know Christ. Only 8,000,000 of these are active in discipleship. This would be the equivalent of 12 guys playing on a football team and only 1 of them knowing how to play football.
Now, no man fails on purpose – most wake up in the morning wanting to succeed.
Our desire at Man in the Mirror is to come along side pastors and men’s ministry leaders who are equipping men for success.

One of the absolute first (and oldest) rules of communicating is, "Show, don't tell." Don't tell your reader or listener what to feel (e.g. happy, sad, fear). Instead, tell them stories that help them feel the effect you're after. Here are some examples.
