Kingsmen

We see the Kingdom of God forcefully advancing through a vibrant, thriving brotherhood of believers who love God with all their heart (worship), head (Word), hands (work), and feet (witness), who are maximizing their potential as kingdom men, and mentoring others to carry on the mission of spiritual mentorship.

Forcefully Advancing

• On the offensive, going forward, advancing.
• We’re not going to Hunker in the Bunker!
• It’s called the Book of Acts not Reacts!

Vibrant, Thriving

• We see a ministry that is excellent, effective, and efficient.

Brotherhood

• No more isolation!
• We see a ministry where men are linking arms, building friendships, working together, and being accountable to one another.

Love God with all their Heart, Head, Hands, and Feet

• What does a mature disciple look like?
• Would we know one if we saw one?
• It is our understanding of Scripture that a mature disciple is one who loves God with all their heart, head, hands, and feet.
  • Heart (Worship)
    • They glorify God through meaningful worship
    • (Rom. 12:1 NLT; John 4:24; Gen. 22:1-14; Mt. 22:34-40)
  • Head (Word)
    • They live by God’s Word, understanding that it is the authority for all of life
    • (2 Tim. 3:15-17; Mt. 22:37)
  • Hands (Work)
  • They contribute to God’s work by using their gifts to serve the body, to give financially, and to connect relationally.
  • (1 Cor. 12; Romans 12; Eph. 2:10; 4:16; 2 Cor. 8-9)
• Feet (Witness)
  • They impact their world by reaching out to the unchurched and becoming personally involved in missions.
  • (Rom. 10:13-15; Mt. 28:19-20; Acts 1:8)

Maximizing their Potential as Kingdom Men

• We see men maximizing their potential in five key areas of their life:
  • Man
  • Husband
  • Father
  • Provider
  • Mentor
    • Mentoring Others to Carry On the Mission of Spiritual Mentorship
      • 1 Timothy 2:1-2
        • Notice the mentorship/discipling process:
        • Paul to Timothy, Timothy to faithful men, faithful men to others.
        • This is the discipleship acceleration factor.
      • It is our goal to raise up godly men who will build authentic mentoring relationships with other men through one-to-one interaction and small groups, and for those who are mentored to mentor someone else. This strategy will cause the Kingdom of God to forcefully advance in our generation.
