Pastor Tim's Thoughts

Last week, retreat was awesome. Sunday was like nothing I’ve experienced before! Second service was unforgettable!

Men, how are you doing? How’s the creed being applied to your life? How have you upheld the Brotherhood?

I walk with walk through the fire.
I will follow orders.
I will be accountable.
I will carry my cross.

This creed is not easily lived out. You will not be perfect. It is the effort that God is concerned with. Make sure you keep the brothers in the loop. Let us help you carry the weight. Your decisions have an impact on us all. Therefore, let us all strive to press toward the mark.

Women, how has this last week been for you? How has your husband been effected by retreat? Are you praying for him? Are you encouraging him? Are you acting as a partnership, as a team, so others can see God working in and through you? Is God with you in your marriage? Is God the priority in your marriage?

As your Pastor, men and women, I am pulling for you. I am pulling with you.

You next steps are to be connected. We have so many opportunities: Lifegroups, Sunday setup/breakdown, MasterLife, Men's outings, Women’s socials, Squad reunions, possible Men's Bible Study.

Let us be unified, as both a Brotherhood of men and a church family as a whole – men and women together. Let us avoid a critical spirit.

Men, if we all lead our families, then we can confidently know that greatness is our future.

I love you all.

Pastor Tim
