Really, I think after what we just heard, there's nothing else to say. It's really not, thank you. Thank you, brother. Well, as I'm going to be real brief, because I had a big meal and I ate too much and I'm feeling that cheesecake right about now. But as Tom has said, I am an LDAT Mount Zion Bible Church located in Pensacola, Florida, and I also help oversee the Chapel Library, which is a ministry of Mount Zion Bible Church, where we publish somewhere over 800 titles of Christian literature from tracts, small and large booklets, paperbacks, and we send them all over the world.

I think we sent somewhere around 103 countries so far this year. And so that's what I'm doing five days a week. And we try to attempt to encourage at least the men in our assembly to take their responsibilities as fathers. That's a hard job to do, but it's a job that needs to be done. And we do the same thing with the mothers in our assembly, the wives, calling them to take their responsibility as well as mothers, but the primary weight lies on the men.

And so that's our push, if we would say it that way, and The Lord has been pleased to encourage us and bless us. And I think one of the things lacking, which we will talk about more tomorrow, is fatherhood. We need men who would simply be men. That's the simplest way I can put it. I made the record.

I'm short. Thank you.

In this brief talk we learn about Clarence Simons and his ministry at Chapel Library. He also talks about the Church’s role in raising up godly men. He says that Church must start teaching men how to be men.

Speaker

Clarence Simmons labors at Chapel Library Publishers (a ministry of Mt. Zion Bible Church), which sends Christ-centered literature worldwide without charge. He serves as an elder in the church, preaches to a group of men in the local rescue mission, and encourages young people in a local Safe House to seek the God of the Bible. Passionate about the gospel of Jesus Christ, his goal in life is to live the truths of that gospel before his family and his community. He is husband to Candace and a father of seven children.
