Today I’ve been a day conference for Christian men held at Melton Mowbray Baptist Church, under the heading “Brothers in Christ” and featuring Paul Harcourt (who led the New Wine network for a number of years) as a guest speaker. Some men’s events (not all!) can be a bit testosterone-heavy and lean into unhelpful stereotypes but this one was safely into well-balanced territory. I’d both be glad to hear Paul Harcourt again and to go back to a future event organised by the same group. Overall, I’d still generally prefer events that aren’t gender segregated but I liked this one, perhaps because it probably wouldn’t have been very different if it had been open to all.
