A few days ago, I wrote a post  about recruiting men to do missions (thru this epic journey for leaders). Christina responded that churches need to do more to attract men to the church.

I'm wondering if Christina's response is representative of what women think about church. Here's what she said:

"The North American church experience generally caters to us women:
  • more women's conferences than men's wilderness retreats,
  • women's brunches than men's happy hours,
  • more hugs than high-fives,
  • more biscuits than burgers!
I'd like to see some more testosterone-infused, man-church activities! I'm sharing this post with the men in my life."

What do you think? Do you agree with Christina? Should churches be doing more to attract men? And if so, how?
