A couple of months ago, Aaron and I were approached by an elder at the church to talk about men's ministries. He asked us, "Would we be willing to host the next men's breakfast?" Well, of course we would, but we also started thinking that it would be great to come up with a way for men to encourage each other more often than every few months.
Now, we both love meeting up with friends for coffee in the morning (not too early mind you). Fellowship around a meal or coffee is a great way for getting to know people. But you can't meet for coffee, with everyone you'd like to, every day. We began kicking around ideas of how we could express our heart for studying and discussing Scripture to the other men. Outside of reading Scripture, we both enjoy reading good Christian blogs. Since a blog can be read anytime, we thought this might be one way to keep in touch.
So after the "hard" work of creating the blog itself (thanks Aaron!), we hope to keep your interest by posting a variety of subject matter to get (and keep) us thinking of what it means to rejoice in the truth of God's Word.
We hope that you will have time to check in occasionally. We look forward to continuing the conversation in person as the Lord allows.
As this is a new endeavor for us, be patient as we try to pull it all together for God's glory.
Thanks,
Rich C
The ministry of the pen is apostolic! :-)
