    Contributed by Jerry Smith on Jun 28, 2021

     | 5,567 views

     | 3,001 views

    Ezekiel 22:30 has been the theme verse for lots of men's ministries. It is definitely compelling to think we might be the man God is looking for to stand in the gap. But the truth is, we are missing the point.
