Men and Authority! Luke 7:1-10 – CCFV Men’s Breakfast – May 17, 2025

Pastor Rick Lancaster continues a series for the Men’s Ministry – SHEPHERD: Reclaiming man’s role in the world! One of the characteristics that God built into His creation of men is a need to be in authority. With that comes a need to be under authority. If those two needs are not balanced and in the appropriate things a man will struggle and not be fulfilled.

SHEPHERD is a series of messages for men. If you were to ask 100 people what the role of a man is in the world you would get one of three answers: leader, provider, or protector. These words all describe an aspect of a man’s role but it isn’t inclusive enough. A better word is shepherd. Unfortunately, most men in our western culture have little contact with shepherds and know very little about what they do. This series is meant to expand our understanding of what God calls His men to be, to be shepherds.
