Man Up!

The Call

Brothers
 
We stand at a critical time in God’s history.  Forces are in place in the world that are chipping away at civilization.  Much that calls itself the church would be an embarassment to the likes of Luther and Zwingli not to mention Christ Himself.  The family, too, is falling apart all around us.  Husbands have no clue how to love their wives.  Dads have stopped training up their children in the way they should go.  With the disintegration of the church and family, it should surprise no one that we see the demise of Western Civilization taking place before our eyes.
 
We can’t stop it.  Things will continue to get worse until the time of Christ’s return to set all things right.  So says the word of God.
 
Such a sobering look does not release us from God’s command to have dominion over his creation.  It does not release us from God’s design for man to lead, to lead in the home, to lead in the Church, and to lead in the world around us.  God has called you and me to LEAD.
 
That’s why this next eight-week Sunday school is so important and so relevent for us.  Pastor Counterman and Keith Pond will be examining what God has called us to do and be as MEN.  He has created us to LEAD.  The world’s idea of manhood and how men ought to lead misses God’s mark.
 
So you are invited to come and see.  Come and hear.  Come and invest an hour a week toward becoming the man, the leader, God would have you to be in your home, in our church and in the world around us.  God’s turned the world upside down with a rag-tag group of twelve before.  Let Him do so again with us starting in our hearts, in our homes, in our church and in our community.
 
See you Sunday at 9:30!
