Boys and Girls are different. Fifty years ago we wouldn’t have to clarify what we mean by this or defend this simple truth. And yet, there is a clear agenda by the Left, including Hollywood and the media to downplay masculinity. Gender roles and distinctions are being blurred at best and erased at worst. Is this by design, meaning, is there an agenda against men and boys?

Today’s Guest Mark Hancock began his career founding a national advertising agency and running it for fifteen years. His conversion to Christ led him into ministry as a Youth and College Pastor, Associate Pastor, and Homeless Ministry Director. He holds two Masters Degrees in the Mental Health Counseling field, and is a writer and conference speaker.

Mark serves as CEO of Trail Life USA and lives near Greenville, SC with his wife of 27 years and two sons. 

“As leaders of boys in schools, homeschools, churches, and youth organizations, we must recognize and affirm their unique strengths and challenges. We are positioned to instill the principles and character traits that can prepare boys to become courageous, successful, focused men. But will we?” How can we successfully engage and disciple boys? If your attempts look anything like a typical classroom or Sunday school class, you are fighting a losing battle. Boys aren’t defective, they are different and to engage and disciple them effectively, we must Let Boys be Boys!” – Mark Hancock

Longtime Boy Scout Leader, Joseph Carballo, whose two sons are Eagle Scouts, as saying that girls have no place in Boy Scouts. “Boys and girls should have separate organizations for activities,” he said. “There is an organization for girls. It’s called the Girl Scouts.”

Similarly, Bob Adelmann, an Eagle Scout and longtime writer for the The New American, decried the Boy Scouts’ continued slide into cultural compromise. “The Boy Scouts was at one time in our nation an esteemed and worthy organization because of its commitment to helping form generations of boys into solid and dependable young men,” he recalled. “Now it has become little more than a sad footnote in history, known more for compromise than commitment to the boys and families it claims to serve. The welcoming of girls into its ranks is one more predictable step on its way to irrelevance.”

“Wisdom, Knowledge, Understanding, Counsel, Fortitude, Piety, the fear of the Lord, the gifts of the Holy Spirit… What better legacy can we give our children than to help prepare them to receive those gifts…developing our boys into men of God, teaching them how to make moral choices… to walk in a manner worthy of the Lord, this is the rock on which any youth organization should be built; a strong foundation not built on sand, not built on moral relativism.” – Richard Matthews, 1958 – 2020

Anonymous letter to Stand Up for the Truth, read on-air by David:

“I am a freshman in High School here in the Green Bay, WI area and a committed Christian. You would not believe how many of my fellow students thing they might be “transgender.” I try to explain to them that their confusion or emotions are just a result of hormones and puberty and to just give it time. But they usually just reject my advice. I am telling you that this problem is more far reaching than any of you can imagine. These days, if you are not a homosexual or transgender or fully support their delusions, you are cast out of friendship circles altogether.”
