I wasn’t the only one who grew up playing a game the older kids called “man can.” It was a dangerous game that put your courage to the test and it wasn’t for the faint of heart either. Every participant would lay with their heads together in the form of a circle. Then one would take an aluminum can (occasionally filled with rocks or sand) and throw it into the air. Whoever the can hit in the face became the next lucky player who got to throw the can. This gave the victim an opportunity to get revenge if he had the skill and aim it took to do so.
There are many things men can’t do and not everything a man can do should be done. Thankfully the Bible has plenty of encouraging sections that lead men to consider what a man can and should do.
