Guerreiros

The next three Saturdays I will be leading a group for boys in the community here on the theme of warriors. Too often I believe that the church has feminized the gospel and emasculated the radical and powerful words of Jesus and the truth that God is a mighty warrior.

From the beginning of God's involvement with mankind, He has had warriors carrying the banner of His name. Men who have forsaken the ways of the world and have set their eyes on their eternal homeland. 'Heroes' of the faith who "through faith conquered kingdoms, enforced justice, obtained promises, stopped the mouths of lions, quenched the power of fire, escaped the edge of the sword, were made strong out of weakness, became mighty in war, put foreign armies to flight." (Hebrews 11:33,34)

What a difference it would make if young men in this community activated passive, complacent belief for active, heroic faith. If God would have warriors in and from this community raised up for His glory.

Please pray:
God would be bringing the boys He desires to this program
Wisdom with teaching
Open hearts and true, living faith to take root
