November 30, 2009 - A Plan - A Challenge

For twenty-nine years God has sustained this ministry.  We are so grateful and humbled by His many blessings and all the people we have met during the many journeys made around this great country. 

Through our messages, retreats, resources, books, newsletters, pastor’s conferences, father/child programs, men’s events, and special events we have had the privilege of boldly proclaiming God’s Word.  We take the challenge our Lord gave in Matthew 28 very seriously, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.” Matthew 28 (NIV)

The signs of our time suggest that we are very close to “the end of the age”.  Time is precious as we work together in the final harvest.  Outdoor Connection Ministries (a.k.a. Men’s Ministry Catalyst) is launching its most ambitious plan in almost thirty years.  What would it mean to you and your family if the men in your church were transformed into disciple-making witnesses for Jesus?  How could your home and community be changed if Christ-centered men began to be the husbands, fathers, and co-workers described in scripture?

Only once a year do we take advantage of this weekly message to update our friends on how God is working through your prayers, resources, and participation.  Please honor us by taking a few minutes to see our 20-10 Plan for this coming year.  You will be inspired to see what God is doing through this outreach program. 

We are reminded what the Apostle Paul said about being involved with ministry, "For the kingdom of God is not a matter of talk but of power." 1 Corinthians 4:20 (NIV)  The power of the Holy Spirit working through people like you and me can change the world for His glory.
