Key Bible Verses
1 Corinthians 12:12 For as the body is one, and hath many members, and all the members of that one body, being many, are one body: so also is Christ.
Colossians 3:17 And whatsoever ye do in word or deed, do all in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God and the Father by him.
1 Corinthians 15.58 Therefore, my beloved brethren, be ye stedfast, unmoveable, always abounding in the work of the Lord, forasmuch as ye know that your labour is not in vain in the Lord.
Beginning the Process
The first step in forming a vital men's ministry at Word of Grace that will positively impact our families, church and community is to decide what we want to see happen in our men's lives. For this vitality to flourish, we need to raise up leaders who will catch the vision and help us lead an army of men into deeper relationship with the Lord.
