Friends, please be careful about assumptions because they may be false. I have a husband and sons and if any of you think that I do not love men you are totally wrong! This book is written totally out of love for men.
Jesus loved men so much that he said the things that he said too! Jesus had to be very careful about what he said because men would have killed him sooner. He spoke in parables to encourage men to think deeply in order for them to gain a broader understanding of the problems that he tried to address.
Oh, and by the way, Jesus is my shepherd.
