SHOW NOTES:

• Today we continue our Men and the Church Series with Kevin Wishard from LCBC in Lancaster, PA
• Kevin and LCBC got connected with Men of Iron as they searched for small group material and found A Man’s Game Plan
• Kevin had been familiar with Men of Iron through local connections
• They loved how A Man’s Game Plan covers good foundational principles to help a man grow in his faith
• LCBC has seen their men’s ministry double at the city campus just with a boots on the ground initiatives and talking to men
• “Our target audience to know if our church is healthy are young families.”
• It starts with the man, he is the spiritual leader of his home
• We just want to connect with men and have them thinking through what it looks like to be the spiritual leader
• Some guys don’t really believe they are the spiritual leader of their home
• Men don’t naturally lean towards connection like women
• If you give men something of value, they will be much more available to give it a shot
• Get men to a common ground where they can trust you and get to know you
• It’s all about meeting guys where they are at
• When you help men grow you start to see a guy realize that bringing their family to church is their responsiblity
• That will change your family, and will change so much for the generations to come
• How amazing is it for your kids to know that their dad took time to know who God is
• As the spiritual leader of the home you have to first make sure you relationship with Jesus is good
• If you don’t know where to start, check out the Bible App and start a devotional
• Or just grab your Bible and open it up, start anywhere
• Just get a win, start small
• Just sit and spend time with God,
• Journaling has always been big for me, just be able to write down my thoughts and get them out
• Asking God to show me my purpose and where you are leading me
• I want to be where God wants me to be
• “I love A Man’s Game Plan because it has practical next steps for men to take with them that week.”
• Gives guys an opportunity to set SMART goals in their Core5 – faith, family, friends, fitness and finances
• When you are setting goals for yourself, make sure to have a friend or mentor to hold you accountable
• You don’t have to do this by yourself
• We want to impact the men in our community
• We do that by going into the community and serving well, getting to know the people
• Those are the people and men we are trying to reach
• We won’t impact our community if we stay within our four church walls
• Surround yourself with people who are going to lift you up and hold you accountable when you need it
• Guys need other men
• Men, you cannot do this on your own. Let us be a resource for you, contact us today
