The fact of the matter is that it is the women in the Church that generally do all the praying...I know few men that have decent prayer lives; if I need urgent prayer, it is the women Christians that I know that I ask to pray for the required need and not the Christian men that I know...
The men love to have the leadership at the front of the Church, but from my experience it is the women in the Church that lead in prayer, spirituality, love and patience, i.e. the real practical matters that are really important!
Sad, but true!
Yahweh Shalom
