Why Christian Men Don’t Have Friends



“A typical day in the life of the young man in the modern world is to wake up, leave home, sit in a car for part of an hour, arrive at work, interact with people from whom your existence is nothing more than a means to a paycheck. He goes home alone, maybe to interact with virtual friends on social media or video games, maybe to consume entertainment and pornography alone. He is isolated. This may seem hyperbolic. It may seem like an exaggeration, but these are the conditions that many young people live in today. It’s time that Christians learn this lesson. It is not possible to understand the spiritual miasma of our current era without recognizing how extraordinarily lonely most people are.”

  2. Christian men don't need friends. There is a Friend Who sticketh closer than a brother. If you're going through loneliness or depression, check whether you indeed accepted Jesus as your Saviour. If you really did, then get to know Him better. It takes work to have good friends…get on with it ♡♡♡

  3. If you are a grown Alpha Male and have died unto yourself only Living for The Lord Jesus Christ then you are never Alone..🤔🤨 He will guide you unto Real People, Warriors of His Male and Female. Remain Strong people… You are not of this World, Only Passing Through.. Keep Focused On Talking with Him.. People Who filled with The Holy Spirit will Know Who your are when the Chaos comes.. Leadership is from The Lord Jesus Christ.. Not of Ourselves.. 📕👋😠🙏💪☝️👍

  4. Boy, I'm so blessed of the Lord to be able to say honestly that I'm not at all lonely. Praise Him for Godly friends of the church, and Christian family. Sorry to hear of the position so many find themselves in. I'm poor in money, but rich in fellowship and purpose.

  5. One of the biggest issues I find with loneliness is that so many of the people my age (and my male friends) are not really interested in the world around them, current events, culture, etc. Everyone is consumed by several forms of semi/professional sports to which a large part of their attention is devoted. I feel like I see things very differently about what is going on around us from a spiritual perspective and feel much more conservative in my beliefs and viewpoints (for better or worse) where most of my friends want to appear as neutral and centrist on issues as possible even when things are clearly black and white, right and wrong.

  6. Join your local volunteer fire department. Get with other men and make friends.

    Quit spending ALL your time on fun stuff like video games. A little time is OK, but go outside and build something. Go stand shoulder to shoulder with some other men and BUILD.

    Build a fire station, a chicken coop, fix a car, build up other young men. Go out, conquer and BUILD.

    My tiny, rural community of 20 houses is very tight knit. When the power goes out we all check on each other and offer food or even for neighbors to stay in each other's houses. During COVID we shared toilet paper. Us married men mentor the younger boys in the few fatherless homes out here. There is social capital here.

  7. Employment usually gets friends or connections to work become friends.
    Most men get agitated with pathetic endless "worship" songs and therefore skip church and the hope of meeting other men. Mens groups/Bible study, are hugely popular at first, then drop off to half.

  8. Modern society has destroyed the family. Women don't need men and don't want real men. They like their independence and vacation travel. A Christian man is like a fish out of water. The Christian church has been femized by women, women Bible study groups and accomdating non believers. I've never heard of a men's Bible study group. Boy Scouts are gone. Veterans groups are mostly centered around alcohol. Most Christian men don't date. The only women looking for a man come with children. I think that sums it up. I am speaking from experience.

  10. I am an older Christian woman and am experiencing what you are talking about. Most women want friends in a similar situation with children and a husband etc. I do not fit this mould so acquaintance and friendship never moves to the next level.
