The world doesn’t need a few nice guys in church. The world needs men who are warriors for Jesus Christ. If you're a warrior or wanting to be a warrior, read this whole report--it's important.

Change The Atmosphere!
It's a negativity tornado. Accusations, innuendos, lies, wars, and rumors fill the air in every space around us. But that’s not you. You carry a different atmosphere. And everywhere you go, the atmosphere you bring fills the space you’re in. You carry and are filled with the Spirit of Christ. He is the air we breathe. Because of His presence in you, you have discernment. You see through the manipulation that tells lies as though they were truth. But you know truth because… you know Truth Himself!

The Process Of Stalwart
The strongest trees take longer to grow. Oak trees grow for almost 50 years to become a mature, fruitful tree. They live to be over 700 years old. Their roots go deep.

And we must make them. One man told me: "Paul, I've carried heavy things my whole life. Steel beams. My father's coffin. Even my son to the emergency room. But the heaviest weight I've ever carried isn't something I picked up. It's what I didn't do." The heaviest weight a man carries isn't what he's done—it's what he didn't do. The weightiest decisions we face today must be made. When...
The Power of Courage
The story of Juneteenth, which commemorates the final act of freeing slaves in America on June 19, 1865, in Galveston, Texas reminds us that true freedom is a journey, not just a destination. In the US, we celebrate this holiday on Thursday. The holiday comes against a global backdrop of war, rumors of war, and the stark reminder that people live in bondage all over the world. Today is a day for champions, for men who stand up as heroes for their families, their cities, their nations. Men all over the world are struggling to protect their families today--from bombs...
