MAN NIGHT 5/16 ....but I found none. Ezekiel 22:20

As men of Seven, Pastor Paul has tasked us with the following responsibilties:

1: Build up the Church
2: Stand before God in prayer
3: Stand before God in your failures
4: Stand on behalf of others

If you missed Man Night, you should have been there, the food was terrific (thanks Harbor), the Dodge ball was challenging ( thanks Richard Dees), and Paul's study of Ezekiel 22:20 was moving.

What does it take to be a man of God? Look at a quote from Gostanian

" As a man, I want glory, honor, respect, adventure, conflict, and passion. I deeply want my life to count and I want to live for something bigger than myself. At the end of my days, I want to know it wasn't a waste, but all the failures, difficulties, scrapes, bruises and dangers meant something."

Ezekiel 22:20, " I looked for a man among them who would build up the wall and stand before me in the gap on behalf of the land so I would not have to destroy it, but I found none."

DOES YOUR LIFE SAY "........BUT I FOUND ONE"?

WHAT WOULD YOU SAY IT TAKES TO BE A MAN OF GOD?

Dodge Ball Champs!
