Members: Cast your vote now for OCF Council

[…]involvement: OCF member since 2001, home Bible study leader, Germany; small group leader and area coordinator, West Point; Emmanuel Baptist Church leadership board; Sunday school teacher, discipling cadets; cadet chapel, AWANA Personal testimony: I sporadically attended church growing up but never knew the Lord. That changed my senior year of college through the efforts of my grandparents and friends. I am still growing in my knowledge of the Lord and I thank Him for His abundant mercy and grace. What is the biggest challenge you see currently facing OCF right now? The current generation of leaders is more connected and […]

[…]the base to which you are being assigned, the home office can provide a list of OCF members in the area. Perhaps they can put you in contact with an ongoing study. If there is no OCF study, ask God if you should start one. A wealth of “user friendly” Bible study material is available on the OCF website.The point–stay connected with OCF. Don’t wait for someone to contact you. Be a leader who will make a Kingdom difference. Now, what can you expect from OCF at Maxwell? We see Maxwell as a spiritual “touchpoint.” Our ministry hope is reflected […]

For All Leaders

[…]advisers make victory sure” (Prov. 11:14). Incidentally, in case you are a little shy in this area, most people consider it a compliment when you ask their advice. Seek balance in being “salt and light” in the world, without being “of the world.” Jesus charged the disciples to be the “salt of the earth” and to let their lights “shine before men” (Matt. 5:13-16). However, John cautions us in 1 John 2:15 to, “…not love the world or the things in the world.” John goes on to describe more specifically those things he is referring to. “…the lust of the […]

God, are you with me?

[…]the crumpled note and attempted to smooth back the unintended folds of paper, a wedge-shaped area torn from the letter had intersected the neat, hand-written passage of words. The empty space formed an arrow whose tip pointed to a collection of words—one word on one line and two words on the following line. The rest of the respective sentences had been torn away, leaving the mystery of deciphering what else had been written. But, at this moment, his mind raced back—back to that moment his fists struck the cold locker door. He could hear the echo of the words he […]

Letter to My Sergeant

[…]see who God has put in that place to help you choose life. LTC Stu McLennan, USA, served as an OCF area coordinator at Fort Leavenworth, Fort Carson and Fort Hood and was elected to the OCF Council Class of 2002. Stu culminated a 23 year career with battalion command, and retired 1 August 2001. Stu, wife Kay and son Logan reside in Copperas Cove, Texas. Their other two children, Stuart IV and Erin, attend the University of Mary Hardin Baylor in Belton, […]

Making the ‘no greater love’ sacrifice

[…]day out of Greenland, a torpedo struck the side of the ship, killing all in the blast area, plunging the vessel into total darkness. Terrified and confused, the surviving soldiers scurried in search of exits and rescue boats. Chaplains Alexander Goode, John Washington, Clark Poling and George Fox could have headed for the lifeboats. Instead, they went to different parts of the ship, assisting panicked and wounded soldiers to the top deck and rescue boats, handing out lifejackets to those who had left theirs behind, and giving their own away when all the lifejackets were gone. Less than a half […]

Mortal Enemies

[…]next three hours I directly commanded the fifty level bombers as they pelted Pearl Harbor and the area nearby. Then I circled at a higher altitude to accurately assess the damage and report it to my superiors. During the next four years I was determined to improve upon my Pearl Harbor feat. I saw action in the Solomon Islands, Java, and the Indian Ocean. With the end of the war my military career was over, since the Japanese forces were disbanded. As I got off the train one day in Tokyo, I saw an American distributing literature. When I passed […]

[…]promotion to brigadier general acting as the registrar for a LEAD! is exercising leadership. An area coordinator organizing the leaders of all Christian ministries at the installation is exercising leadership. Our chief means of encouraging and equipping officers for biblical leadership and effective ministry is-and will remain-the small group. I get really encouraged when I see the young officers leaving Pensacola eager to get involved in military ministry; when Christian officers deploy to Southwest Asia and want to immediately start a fellowship-in concert with the chaplain; when 37 cadets and others spend their spring break roofing a church and teaching […]

Operation Iraqi Freedom

[…]Freedom. The TE Line was just south of the Euphrates River and marked the edge of the settled area. South of that is barren desert. At night, there were no lights to the south, and bright collections of them in the towns CNN made famous–Tallil, As Samawah, Basrah, Al Kut, Al Amarah, Karbala, and Baghdad. It was a privilege to look down and pray for the people. One clear day I looked down at the rich greens of the valley between two major rivers. There were the Tigris and Euphrates Rivers that I’d learned about in church and school my […]

Professional Perspectives for Senior Officers

[…]Christ and also excellent professional military servants. We encourage them to integrate these two areas of their lives by viewing the military society as their specific mission field. We are dedicated to have an ever-increasing influence on the military society as a whole, which we believe will have a positive influence on our nation for God. Senior officers in the U.S. military are given the responsibility for vision, leadership, and decision making. You will be an example both professionally and spiritually. The quality of your example in each area will be determined by your attitudes and actions. You have the […]

Service Separations

[…]and friendship of other Christian men. Sunday school and church programs can often help in this area. Be sure the father remains the central authority figure in your home. Major decisions, unless there is a time element involved, should always be referred to your husband, even though you may feel sure you know his feelings in the matter. Even if you can’t do this in all matters, you can still bring him into the situation. For example, instead of granting a request by simply saying, “Well, I suppose you can do it,” say, “Your father and I trust you, so […]

Six Generations: 1

[…]He was All-American LB (linebacker) at UCLA in ’53 and now is a minister in the LA area. His testimony and real, sincere and honest talk was, I think, one of the best we’ve had this year. He was competing with Gary Puckett and the Union Gap, a singing group, for an audience and didn’t fare too well, but I have found real peace in this matter. I figure that with the speakers we bring up, if we do our work well, we can just leave the rest up to the Lord. “This week we have started a new (Bible) […]

Six Generations: 3

[…]to share my own faith and ensure my men knew that if they ever needed encouragement in that area of life, they could call on me without hesitation. I was also still very cognizant of Jon Shine’s life and death and impact on my life. He was killed in action only three years earlier in combat in Vietnam. My memory of his brief but inspired life and my own changed outlook on life–feeling a strong need to work with men as a spiritual mentor, as God led me to those men–convinced me that I needed to share my Christian testimony […]

Spiritual Battle Plans

[…]of the Word. Participate in and/or lead a Bible study (when God provides other Christians in your area). Use your spiritual gifts; we grow when we do (1 Timothy 4:14). Make no provision for the flesh (Romans 13:14) Take care of your personal needs (sleep is crucial). Sneak a few minutes of relaxation when possible. Exercise as regularly as possible. Some of my assumptions regarding my deployment to Bosnia have, thankfully, not been true thus far. I have been blessed with a Christian brother and with a weekly church group. However, God is still providing opportunities for my spiritual growth […]
