I am reading in 2 Timothy.....always have been challenged and empowered by 2 Tim 2:2..." and what you have heard from me in the presence of many witnesses entrust to faithful men who will be able to teach others also."It is all about Reproducing...it was God's first and ONLY plan...so how am I or you "teaching others"?...
End of chapter 3...verse 17 "that the man of God may be competent, equipped for every good work."
Paul goes on in Chapter 4..."I have fought the good fight, I have finished the race, I have kept the faith."....and then comes the promise...given to those who have reproduced-were equipped-have finished the race...through God's grace I am rewarded...because of what He has done for me....my works are because of His love.........thanks be to God.
If you are planning for one year, grow rice.
If you are planning for 20 years grow trees.
If you are planning for centuries, grow men.

In Acts Jesus speaks of us being His witnesses in Judea & Samaria and Palm Beach County, Florida...yep that is how my version reads!
September 23 The Gathering will host TWO outreach events....please join me in prayer for:
* Table Hosts who will invite non-Christian men & those who need encouragement in their faith. May the table host be bold & courageous in seeking men he will invite.
* That men will be receptive to the breakfast invitation extended to them.
* For Michael Franzese as he prepares God's message for the men.
* For sponsors whose partnership will provide financial support for this breakfast.
* For breakfast logistics to go smoothly.
* For those who serve at the breakfast to hear and see God's love.
* For the men who will be involved in our discipleship process following the breakfast.
* That when all is done....God will be Honored!
