ADDITIONAL RETREAT DETAILS:
We are partnering with other area E-free churches for a Men’s Retreat on Jan 31 and Feb 1 at Lost Timber Bible Camp. This is a great opportunity for us men to pause and grow together in courage and integrity as men of God. The ways of the Enemy are invading our culture, homes, schools, and workplaces. The Devil is seeking to turn away and destroy the next generation. It is proven that when men are thriving in Christ, then marriages, homes, and communities will thrive as well.
Joe Smith, founder of Broken Strength Ministries will be our speaker. Joe has decades of experience leading men to courageously live out their God-given design as well as helping them experience their redemptive potential in Christ. In addition, Joe has been instrumental in helping men be released from addiction and bondage to sexual sin or pornography. Joe has been married for 54 years and has served in various leadership roles like, Area Director for Fellowship of Christian Athletes, Athletic Director and Head Basketball coach for University of Northwestern St Paul. https://www.apathtopurity.org/who-we-are
Over the course of 3 sessions Joe will be leading us through “The Call of Christ”
1. Who is calling you? And who are you called to be?
2. What mission is Christ calling us to as men – and What are some of the obstacles?
3. What are the results if we (daily) submit to Christ’s yoke and what is our “battle strategy”
Our mission is to disciple and equip the men of Grace for their roles as men of God by doing life together in spiritual friendships and discipling relationships.
“As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.”
We stand on this verse. The principle given here is that men need the encouragement, teaching, fellowship, and modeling of the Christian life from other men.
