Faithful Men Ministries - Jack's Blog

I have so much to catch you up on from the last 3 weekends of ministry. It is so humbling to get to be a part of what God is doing in mens lives. It never ceases to amaze me how God's message on forgiveness is so foundational and essential ih all our lives.
Sometimes I wrestle with the repeated message of what God has done in my life in the area of forgiveness and i often seek and search for a "new message."
from God.
Yet, as I yield to the urging of the Holy Spirit and begin to minister God's heart on forgiveness it always seems fresh and new.
So on October 15, 16, I went to the One Day with God camp with Forgiven Ministries, at the Connally Prison in Kennedy, TX I knew forgiveness would be the opening message and sure enough it was God's headlines for the two days. Seems like if the enemy can keep us in unforgiveness he can keep us from the abundant life Jesus came to give us.
It is always incredible to see the children running and jumping in their fathers arms as they begin their 6 hours together. The day is filled with crafts, games, entertainment and of course pizza, BBQ and fried chicken. But it always ends with prayer and the fathers imparting the Fathers Blessing to their sons and daughters. What a sign to heaven when each of them release their helium filled balloons acknowledging that God has turned the hearts of the fathers to the children and the hearts of the children to their fathers. Mal 4:6
Maybe we shouldn't wait until were in prison to open our hearts to God and our children.
I will be sharing about the 3 days I spent inside Angola Prison in Louisiana & how God, through one man, Warden Burl Cain has taken the bloodiest prison in America and turned it into the Godliest prison in America.
I will be San Antonio at the National Association of Men's Ministries on Mon & Tues morning then driving back to Dallas for The Lions Roar Conference with Paul Cole and others Tues night and Wed morning. Hope to see you there.
Thanks for your support & prayers.

What an incredible weekend of ministry with Pastor David Garcia, Grace World Outreach, Brooksville, FL, Men's leaders Charles Donley & long-time friend of Edwin Cole, Bob Morton. 22 new Comm. men, 7 new young Timothy's for a total of 102 men who are making disciples and making a difference.Notice the Spartan shields for the young Timothy's. Big thanks to Charles & Christine Donley who have the gift of hospitality and overwhelming generosity.
It means so much to Faithful Men Ministries for Commissioned men like Clifford Hare, Ryan Hare & Ed Jost from Jacksonville, FL. to drive to other cities to be a part of forming the 'arc of swords' for newly commissioned men. It's developing life long relationships with me of like precious faith. It inspired these 102 men to find other men around the USA & the world they can go encourage to "go make disciples." Thanks all you faithful men.
