God promises that when we keep our word-even when it hurts-we will never be shaken. Part of your survival strategy is to keep your word-to cling to your integrity. If you do your part then, as the Scriptures promise and I can testify by my own experience, you will survive. Keep your oath even when it hurts. - Pat Morley, How to Survive the Economic Meltdown [HSEM], pg 42.

How Grace Changes Men
Come to Atlanta April 24-25!
The Gospel Men Conference is a time to help men reflect deeply and enjoy the grace of God in Christ. The Gospel itself is the source of ongoing power to change us into men that enjoy and glorify God. The conference seeks to explore the implications of His grace in all the areas of a man's life over time, facilitate men in local churches growing together, and point us toward a lifestyle of 2 Timothy 2:2 influence in other men's lives.
We want to explore and be transformed by how God's grace changes men! Join us and pray for this time. Get more info at www.thegospelman.com! |

Garfield Park church takes to basketball court (and other venues) to build its team Outreach includes hoops, job training
Rev. Michael Eaddy and his two sons came across a few guys playing basketball on a broken-down court in Garfield Park known as "The Hole" and challenged them to a game.

"It's in the best interest of every coach to know and apply the truths of the Bible to their daily life and coaching methodologies," he adds. Continue reading here. |
