What is God Doing?

It has been a while since I was asked to take over the leadership of the Men's Ministry at Lamb's and I thought it was about time to share with you what God is doing...

With the help of a few brothers, we started a Tuesday Night bible study that has been going strong for over a year now. More than 35 guys have joined in at one time or another and we, mostly me, have been blessed by what we have seen, shared and discovered about ourselves and those guys at Lamb's. We still meet on Tuesday nights at RJ Sizzlin Steer @ 6:45pm. We will be starting another study coming up in August on Thursday nigths as well.

Over the past 6 months, God has been changing lives of those men that have stepped out and stepped up to take an active role in the Men's Ministry. We are a small but mighty bunch of guys who, just like you, struggle with stuff on a daily basis. We may be a little different, because we like to talk with other guys that are going through life like we are to make sure that we encourage and provide a bit of cover for our brothers too.

Those guys have joined together to produce a great campout with 20 guys in attendance. We have a golf outing coming up, we have hosted monthly Men's Breakfasts as well. As our community gets bigger, we will have more opportunities to create times for guys to get together with each other.

As the Men's Ministry Leader, God has put on my heart to serve and encourage as many men at Lamb's that need it. I work best when I can encourage a brother to step out in faith and take a challenge that God has put on his heart. I love to see men step up and put their hand in the air to be used by God. We are so fortunate to have a relationship with Christ that we must be counted on to stand up for that relationship, as well as the others that God has entrusted us with.

If you need someone to hang out with and talk to for a while, I love to get me some coffee and would happy to meet with you. If you need some encouragement or prayer, don't hesitate to contact me. If you want to talk about opportunities that we should be or could engaged in - bring it on! There is so much going on at Lamb's that you could feel like the Men's Ministry is not doing anything, but let me tell you - the Men of Lamb's are involved in every ministry at Lamb's...so fear not. God is bonding a solid group of men together on Tuesday nights and at our monthly Saturday breakfasts.

  1. Wow ! Can you believe that it's been a year already? I've attended, been inspired, and watched from a distance, the Men's Ministry grow in purpose and people, under your leadership. I love how God has worked through you, encouraging yourself and others, in this awesome Ministry. As you say . . . Stay Strong Brother. May God continue to lead us to serve, and help figure out His will for us? Thanks for what you do Rob.
