Men Of Convenant
MEN OF COVENANT MINISTRY
We are dedicated to helping men be the godly men God has called us to be. We are servants not slave-masters. Being a spiritual leader does not mean dominating your family. A spiritual leader is there to serve your family and be a godly example to your wife and children.
Our mission is to provide men with the resources to develop godly character, connect them to Christ, and equip them to influence the world for Christ!
Men of Covenant meets every 1st and 3rd Thursday night to discuss the book titled, “The Measure of a Man” by Gene A. Getz. It is centered around 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:5-10, in which we are given the spiritual qualities of a mature man of God.
Out of all the qualities, the over arching quality is “He must be above reproach. ” This doesn’t mean he must be perfect but he should have a good reputation for most men it takes time to build a good reputation. To put it simply, it takes years to build a good reputation and only a moment to destroy one.
A christian man with a poor reputation is obviously demonstrating traits that are not in harmony with christian principles nor is his lifestyle in harmony with what people naturally expect from a mature man.
If you want to find out what kind of reputation you have or what people really think of you, ask those closest to you(wife, children) and allow them to answer freely.
As christian men we ought to strive to have a reputation fitting of a son of God. Let your YES be YES! and your NO be NO! Have a word! Live up to what you say!
My dad used to say your name or reputation will go farther than you will ever go. In other words, your reputation precedes you.
We encourage men to come out on the 1st and 3rd Thursday and experience the Measure of a Man where we put our cards on the table and submit to the Word of God. Hope to see you soon as we grow in the Word of God as a mature man.
We offer other fellowship opportunities such as:
MEN’S BREAKFAST—Held every 2nd Saturday of each month. Our breakfast will include a guest speaker who will speak on topics that are applicable to today’s Christian men. (Date TBA)
