Courageous

 
We will be hosting a free screening of the blockbuster movie “Courageous” on
 
Monday Night September 17th
7:30pm
 
Come on down and experience the awesome film that took America by storm last September.
Honor begins at home with godly men who are not afraid to conform themselves to Christ and not the culture.
 
“In my home, the decision has already been made.
You don't have to ask who will guide my family because by God's grace, I will.
You don't have to ask who will teach my son (and daughter) to follow Christ because I will.
Who will accept the responsibility of providing for and protecting my family? I will.
Who will ask God to break the chain of destructive patterns in my family's history? I will.
Who will pray for and bless my children to boldly pursue whatever God calls them to do? I am their father...I will.
I accept this responsibility, and it is my privilege to embrace it.
I want the favor of God and His blessing on my home.
Any good man does.
So where are you men of courage?
Where are you, fathers who fear the Lord?
It's time to rise up and answer the call God has given you, and to say
I will, I will, I will!"
 
Will You?

Courageous!

On Monday Night,
September 17th
The Men of the Cure of Ars
will be
COURAGEOUS....
 
 
 
Come to our FREE screening of the hit movie "Courageous" and find out what our Men's Formation Group is all about.
 
"....A father should love his children and seek to win their hearts. He should protect them, discipline them, and teach them about God. He should model how to walk with integrity and treat others with respect, and should call out his children to become responsible men and women who love their lives for what matters in eternity.

Some men will hear this and mock it or ignore it. But I tell you that as a father, you are accountable to God for the position of influence He has given you. You can't fall asleep at the wheel, only to wake up on day and realize that your job or your hobbies have no eternal value, but the souls of your children do. Some men will hear this and agree with it but have no resolve to live it out. Instead they will live for themselves and waste the opportunity to leave a godly legacy for the next generation.

But there are some men who, regardless of the mistakes we've made in the past, regardless of what our fathers did not do fur us, will give the strength of our arms and the rest of our days to loving God with all that we are and to teach our children to do the same, and whenever possible, to love and mentor others who have no father in their lives but who desperately need help and direction. And we are inviting any man whose heart is willing and courageous to join us in this resolution.

In my home, the decision has already been made. 
You don't have to ask who will guide my family because by God's grace, I will.
You don't have to ask who will teach my son (and daughter) to follow Christ because I will. 
Who will accept the responsibility of providing for and protecting my family? I will. 
Who will ask God to break the chain of destructive patterns in my family's history? I will.
Who will pray for and bless my children to boldly pursue whatever God calls them to do? I am their father...I will. 
I accept this responsibility, and it is my privilege to embrace it.

I want the favor of God and His blessing on my home. 
Any good man does. 
So where are you men of courage? 
Where are you, fathers who fear the Lord?
  It's time to rise up and answer the call God has give you, and to say I will, I will, I will!"
