Sleeping Giant Week #2

We had a great group this last week. We are working to build a foundation. Here are the highlights from Week #2. 

Romans 5:19 "For just as through the disobedience of the one man the many were made sinners, so also through the obedience of the one man the many will be made righteous."

Your attitude about men reflects your ministry to men. 

The church all over the world is struggling to deliver its mission unnecessarily.
-Churches lack a network of men who are equipped and empowered. 
-We must move men from the audience to the army of God through leadership. 

Jesus started with men. 

Job one for Jesus: Start calling men and fully train them. 
-Matt 4:19 "Come and follow me and I will make you fishers of men."
-Fully trained men, mentored by well the discipled, are the key to transforming today's church for the Lord's purpose. 

Jesus Christ practiced intentional men's ministry. 

The hope of the world is the local church and the hope of the church is it's men. 

Session #3: Mission, Vision, and Alignment. This Wednesday 6:30pm at FBCBA or Thursday 6:30am at Coweta Football Fieldhouse. Come and join us.

Sleeping Giant in the Church = MEN

We are on week #2 of the Sleeping Giant study. Meeting times are 6:30pm Wednesday at FBCBA and 6:30am Thursday at Coweta Football Fieldhouse. Come even if you missed week #1. 

Week #1 highlights:

The behaviors of men are at the center of most suffering. 

Broken male culture is the wallpaper of modern journalism. 

Men are being called by God into a movement of spirituality and justice. 

The hope of the world is the local church and the hope of the local church is it's MEN. 

If the men of our churches are not healthy, the churches are not healthy. 

Week #2 is "A movement begins with a man"

We are working to establish a foundation of what "Men's Ministry" is in churches and where it needs to go. Come be a part and invest in the community of men. It doesn't matter if you miss a week, just BE THERE.
