This weekend I had the honor of speaking at a Men's Retreat. The retreat was organized by Jerry Barnett and "his best friend" Kenny Nelson. The retreat took place at Camp Cale just outside of Hertford NC. The location was beautiful, the accommodations great, and the staff friendly.
One of the reasons I agreed to speak at this retreat was because it was an inter-denominational gathering of men. It seems to me the Church is far too fractured today. I think if Jesus returned today he would look at all the different denominations and ask, "What have you done with my body?"
I went expecting to give a short devotion and to enjoy a little time away from work. I got so much more than that! It was a time of renewal, refocusing, and re-dedication to God's work in the world.
Thanks Jerry and Kenny.

21st Century Sheep
Why 21st Century Sheep?
John 21:16 A second time Jesus said to him, "Simon son of John, do you love me?" He said to him, "Yes, Lord; you know that I love you." Jesus said to him, "Tend my sheep."
I believe the command to "Tend my Sheep" is one that persists through the ages. If we are to tend the sheep of the 21st century it is important to know the issues our people are facing and to understand the tools that are available to reach them. That is the purpose of this blog.
