Heaven's Saints vs. Hell’s Demons

Heaven's Saints vs. Hell’s Demons

The writer George Wills wrote once that:

“Football contains the two things Christians dislike the most: 
Violence and Committee Meetings”

The Heaven's Saints:

*      The Owner
                God the Father
*      The Coach
                God the Son (Jesus)
*      The Defensive and Offensive Coordinator:
                God the Holy Spirit
*      ALL PLAYERS ARE BOUGHT BY THE BLOOD OF THE LAMB
*      The Quarterback …Pastor
*      The Receivers … those listening to the WORD
*      The Running Backs… any saint willing to carry the Gospel

Hell’s Demons:

*      The owner
                Devil himself
*      The coach
                also the Devil himself
*      The coordinator
                again the devil
*      The Player
                Anybody deceived by the Devil.

GREAT NEWS IS THAT THE SAINTS ARE LOOKING FOR NEW PLAYERS:

The winning game plan:

*      Run with the Gospel to every individual we can.
*      Study the playbook and understand the victory is already ours.
*      Continually talk to the owner, coach, and coordinator.

Sad reality within the church~

The impact of Suicide, even within our churches today!             Reports have emerged that Pastor Bill Lenz who was founder and longtime senior pastor of Christ the Rock Community Church in Harrison, WI died Monday by committing Suicide.   Bill was a strong advocate within the Christian community for Suicide Prevention, and along with his brother created Life Promotions, that ministers and teaches folks about Suicide Prevention and how to recover from those thoughts.             Reports that I have read have stated that Pastor Lenz reported suffering with Anxiety,   Panic Attacks, and Depression for about three months, and his staff and board responded by providing support and encouragement including giving him time to seek counseling and treatment.   However, the depression became overwhelming and on Monday, he chose to take his own life.    My prayers are with his family, friends, staff, and members of his church.   Having provided Suicide Prevention training to staff

My top 5 books …

I thank God every day for my Amazon Kindle account, Google Books, and other apps that allow me to carry hundreds of books with me everywhere I go. Then of course there is the dozen of paperback and hardback books sitting on my desk in my office, on the bookcase at home, and stand beside my chair in the living room. Yes, the reality is I love to read, I think it can be traced back to my Grandma Argue, when we lived with her while my dad was overseas with the Air Force, she would have me sit and read for a half-hour to her before anything else got started. Of course, she set the example by reading one to two books a day. Today, I average around a book a week in addition to reading portions of other books as I study various topics, in addition there are the dozen of articles I read to help prepare sermons, teaching outlines, etc. However, there are 5 books that have been my favorite over the years, and in my opinion a must read for everybody. Mere Christianity by C.S.

Five Essentials to Ministering to Men

How to have an Impactful Ministry to Men in your local church! Several years ago I was given the challenge of being the Men’s leader at a local church and the responsibility to take the lead in what would become the most challenging and rewarding ministry of my lifetime. In my experience I have found five essentials to Ministering to Men. These are the principles that I use daily as a Men’s Leader, and that teach in seminars throughout the Midwest. My prayer is that you will be blessed by these thoughts and encouraged in your ministry. 1.        Prayer: Prayer is the essential factor to the beginning and the continued success of any ministry; Ministering to Men is no different. I personally maintain a list of every man within our church and make it a point to pray for them weekly, dividing them over the Monday through Friday.   I pray for their personal needs, that they have wisdom in leading and being the spiritual head of their family, that they will continue to grow spiritually, an
