Title: The Gift of Encouragement


Encourage one another daily, as long as it is called “Today,” – Hebrews 3:13a

Encouragement is a gift of a unique ability to inspire others to reach their full potential. As Husbands, Parents, and Christian Men, we must do so by challenging, comforting, and guiding in a way that people are motivated. Great ways to show encouragement are, speaking to others, perhaps an uplifting note, providing assistance, praying with someone, and sometimes a word of discipline. As Christian men, we must utilize this gift for others to grow spiritually. Encouragement requires us to walk the walk. We cannot encourage others without living a faith-disciplined life ourselves.


Real Men show Encouragement.
