The Battle to Focus On Christ’s Agenda

Christian Men Today Need Help Living As
Called Men Instead Of Driven Ones

Picture of a Man Who is DRIVEN

*  His life is hectic and very fast-paced, yet doesn’t
seem to have a very clear direction.

*  Often his life seems out of control.  He “bounces
off” whatever happens to be in front of us.

*   Spends 98% of our time and energy focused on
the outer world, giving our inner, private world the
leftovers

*  Is haunted by vague doubts about whether we are
really following God’s priorities for our lives

*  Is extremely busy, sometimes exhausted by the pace
of life, yet inwardly not that fulfilled

*  Carried along by internal drives and outward
circumstances without any internal compass to
evaluate or give direction to what we do

*  Very few of us
have any sense
of clear mission
for our lives.  At
work —goals,
strategy,
priorities, plan. 
In our personal
lives and homes,
we react our way
through life.

*  Truth be told, very few of us are leading our homes.
 We have no goals, no sense of direction and no game
plan.

The Tool You Need to Stay Focused

The FOCUS Notebook is the ideal tool to help Christian men stay focused on their calling as men.  The contents of this notebook were developed by PCA Teaching Elder Gary Yagel, busy church planter and father of 5, to use in his own life to help him stay focused on Christ’s mission for him.  That mission begins with enjoying God, moves outward to developing the inner attitudes of a Christ-like heart, then outward again to discover how to give ourselves to meet the needs of our wives.  It moves outward again to helping our kids become fully devoted followers of Christ,  then outward to our neighborhoods, churches, work places, etc.            

This tool became the agenda for TE Yagel’s weekly time with God Sunday afternoon or evening, which he calls his Briefing with the King.  The notebook comes with both a virtual copy of the notebook contents (CD) allowing a man to personalize the material, and the popular accountability and encouragement tool, Check 6.
