Yesterday we kicked off our new fall series, Iron Man. What a phenomenal response as God's Spirit showed up and spoke to men. My favorite part of both services was the conclusion when the men responded to the call to commitment and stood shoulder to shoulder and filled the altars praying prayers of confession and worshiping God.
One guy caught me between services and said, "Pastor Dave, I don't know whether I should hug you or hit you." That's how we feel when the Spirit speaks to us through someone else and brings a word of challenge and conviction.
Here's what the men committed to yesterday:
- To attend all the Iron Man weekends in the series
- To go to the Iron Man Retreat Sept. 26-27
- To sexual purity
- To serve their home, church and community faithfully
- To take a stand for Christ
