I was disappointed to learn that Mike Farris – one of the “big names” in conservative circles – is endorsing Feda Morton for Congress. Not because I have anything against Feda Morton, but because this is yet one more indication that, as conservatives, we have almost no male leadership. (At least in the political arena. Unfortunately, this is often true in the church, as well.) Why is it that almost all of the truly conservative politicians are women? Where are all the men?
The Bible makes it pretty clear that it’s a shameful thing when the men have left such a gap that women must lead. Not because we can’t, but because they should. I’m probably preaching to the choir here, since most of my readership is female, but, seriously, people, we need some real men. Step up to the plate, guys! Don’t make us do your job.
