GMM 2024 Theme
The household is foundational in God’s created order of the Cosmos. On Saturday, August 24th, we explored the role of men in the household and what that means for us, and all of creation.
C.R. (Chris) Wiley is expert at addressing the increasingly scrutinized and challenged Biblical principles about men’s roles in the family.
What Makes a Mighty Man of the Household
In this second video short for the God’s Mighty Men 2024 conference, main speaker Chris Wiley explains a foundational reason the biblical prescription for men is different than cultural extremes of our confused times.
Take two minutes to hear what truly makes a Mighty Man.

Chris is a straight shooter. His qualifications to guide us on this topic are impressive: he’s an author and editor of magazine articles and books, pastors a PCA church outside of Portland, and he’s been a college professor. He’s a practical, hands-on sort of guy. His life experience will resonate with non-academic men too: he’s been a commercial real estate investor, a landlord, and a building contractor. Those of us who have read his books “Man of the House” & “The Household and the War for the Cosmos” have also been impressed by his interviews and podcasts, including “The Theology Pugcast.”
There was time to interact with our speaker in Q&A after each of his two keynote addresses. His first talk showed us the big picture about the role of the household in God’s divine order. The second explored men’s roles as leaders of productive households and how to make it all work. Chris was be available to autograph books during breaks.
Attendees enjoyed refreshments during a morning break, and lunch… and for those who wanted to hang out awhile afterwards, a post-event dessert. Those were also times to visit with local parachurch ministry reps, and simply enjoy fellowship with other men.
