Men's Equippers

In November of last year, I took on the role of discipleship team leader in our church in Perryville. One of the concerns God laid on my heart then was that we could see more of the men in the church step up to the roles as leaders, husband and fathers. Brian, our new men's discipleship leader, was also feeling the same promptings from the Spirit to help and equip the men of the church to be prepared for what God has planned for us.

The exciting thing was watching things unfold today at our first Men's Equippers meeting. (Brian picked the name from II Tim. 3:16-17.) Twenty-four men and one young teenager showed up to hear Brian give a lesson. We spent time looking at passages on the uniqueness of the God's Word, the Bible, and learning facts about it as well as what it has to say about itself.

(An aside here: did you know that the Bible is the most accurate historical document there is? It's no accident.)

It was an incredible thing to see so many guys hungry for the truth of God's Word. We're looking forward to great things ahead as God speaks to us through His book.
