The Internet presents many opportunities and challenges to men. This presentation is what was shown during a 35 minute talk to men in May 2011.
Covers topics such as
- Men's purpose
- Internet | Distractions
- Internet | Knowledge
- Internet | Temptation

lest strangers feast on your wealth
and your toil enrich another man’s house.
Prov 5
