Fishers of Men pt. 2
I wanted to start off on a good foundation which is Christ and a relationship with Christ (1 corinthians 3:11). I would love you all to watch this approx. 7 min video. This is not to stir up any contention (1 Corinthians 3:3, 1 Corinthians 1:9-14; Proverbs 13:10, Proverbs 18:19) we all believe in Jesus Christ as the Only Way regardless of denomination but let us prayerfully analyze what brother Paul Washer preaches in this message. Share your thoughts and as brothers let us respect each other and more importantly see where we can ask God to guide us and lead us.
Fishers of Men Pt. 1
Dear Brothers Let Us Pray:
Holy Spirit I want to thank and worship You as You deserve. Jesus Christ I praise You for Your grace and sacrifice. You are WORTHY. Heavenly Father be Glorified in all Your magnificence and splendor. Holy Ghost I ask that Your blessing and presence be on this series which we are about to embark on and that Men of God be caught by Your net and transformed into the Wonderful image of Jesus Christ our Lord and Saviour and One true risen King and begotten Son of the Father. Amen
Have you ever looked around your church or anything remotely related to Spirituality? Have you ever held a bible study or wanted to get together on a friday night for worship? Who usually shows XX or XY? No, I'm serious. I don't know about you but God's opened my eyes to a disproportionate amount of Sisters who are "seeking God's face" passionately and with all their "heart, souls, mind and strength". It is SOO beautiful...think about your mom who prays for hours over you, your grandmother who carries that bible that's been through thick and thin wherever she goes or that Aunt who sends you cards or emails with encouraging bible verses.
May the Lord our God pour His grace on such wonderful Virtuous Women.
I have a question is it un-manly for a brother to say I love you? pray for hours? weep and cry when another brother or sister is in trouble? send encouraging bible verses to uplift fellow saints?
This World has certainly planted those thoughts into this generation. Well, as brothers in Christ I want to start a series hopefully (By God's Grace) looking at this issue and focusing on what we as Men of God can do about it. Sisters I urge you to share this and use it as well but I believe as God has put on my heart it is time for MEN to rise up and walk the steps He destined us to walk. To walk on the seas and not fear sinking, leading billions into His arms.

Bodek Lounge, Houston Hall
3417 Spruce Street
Philadelphia, PA 19104
**Admittance is FREE; we just ask that you bring a friend and/or warm winter items (i.e. blankets, gloves, scarves, jackets) to be donated to the homeless.
The Heart of Love Cafe is a community outreach event focusing on the homeless and needy in West Philadelphia. The night will feature various forms of worship (i.e. song, dance, mime, rap etc.) coupled with, testimonies of God’s love. The overall purpose of the event is to explore, with the campus and surrounding community, the idea of real love, through the lens of Christ.
As we prepare our hearts to serve those in need, let's dwell on Ephesians 3:17-19
And I pray that you, being rooted and established in love, 18 may have power, together with all the Lord’s holy people, to grasp how wide and long and high and deep is the love of Christ, 19 and to know this love that surpasses knowledge—that you may be filled to the measure of all the fullness of God.

Is the Church a Business?
Who are we to please?
by Rodney E. Zwonitzer
I address you today from the following background which has shaped my life and I believe has given me an interesting perspective for this symposium. I was involved in a career in product marketing with such corporations as Westinghouse, Storage Technology Corporation and United Technologies for nearly fifteen years before entering the Seminary. I graduated from this Seminary in 1988 and served two congregations in British Columbia, Canada before accepting a call in December of 1991 to my present call in Dearborn, Michigan.
Much of my experience in product marketing was in brainstorming sessions as to what could be adjusted to either bring in more sales or increase profits, or the usual demanded objective, increase both. Such frequent discussions generally entailed a microscopic look at all areas of our marketing effort. For those of you unfamiliar with marketing (who might define it incorrectly as “sales”), I offer the following definition from a classic university marketing textbook: “Marketing is the performance of business activities which direct the flow of goods and services from producer to consumer or user in order to satisfy customers and accomplish the company’s objectives.”[1]
Useful for our purposes here today is a traditional marketing way of looking at business by breaking it down into the Four P’s of Marketing: Product, Price, Place, and Promotion. Thus, the brainstorming sessions that go on in corporate America revolve basically around this discussion: which of these four variables or “marketing mix” can we adjust to gain a higher share of our market? For instance, if I lower my price on a given product ten percent, how will it affect sales? If I improve the product significantly or replace it with a new design, how much more of the market can I capture? Sound analogous to any discussions within the LCMS these days?
This type of analysis goes on continually in business with constant research, planning, implementation, and follow up being done in looking at changes to the marketing mix – the four P’s – which will result in higher sales, higher profits.
[FEB22ND] The Discipline of Spiritual Tenacity [Oswald Chambers, My Utmost for His Highest]
February 22nd
THE DISCIPLINE OF SPIRITUAL TENACITY
"Be still, and know that I am God." Psalm 46:10
Tenacity is more than endurance, it is endurance combined with the absolute certainty that what we are looking for is going to transpire. Tenacity is more than hanging on, which may be but the weakness of being too afraid to fall off. Tenacity is the supreme effort of a man refusing to believe that his hero is going to be conquered. The greatest fear a man has is not that he will be damned, but that Jesus Christ will be worsted, that the things He stood for - love and justice and forgiveness and kindness among men - will not win out in the end; the things He stands for look like will-o'-the-wisps. Then comes the call to spiritual tenacity, not to hang on and do nothing, but to work deliberately on the certainty that God is not going to be worsted.
If our hopes are being disappointed just now, it means that they are being purified. There is nothing noble the human mind has ever hoped for or dreamed of that will not be fulfilled. One of the greatest strains in life is the strain of waiting for God. "Because thou hast kept the word of my patience."
Remain spiritually tenacious.
