CIRCLE OF TRUST/BOM:

On this day in 1917 = the U.S. entered WWI
– thousands of men were called into action – called into active duty service for their country.
What would it look like for us as high impact men to answer the call God gives us to go into active duty service as servants for HIS kingdom?
– ‎and you could say “man I don’t feel qualified to talk to my neighbor, coworker, friend, or family, about my faith or God.” Or “That’s not me, I’m not that guy”
– ‎but hear this: You are the guy. Because God doesn’t call the qualified, he qualifies the called.
Ephesians 6:19-20 (MSG) = And don’t forget to pray for me. Pray that I’ll know what to say and have the courage to say it at the right time, telling the mystery to one and all, the Message that I, jailbird preacher that I am, am responsible for getting out.
