Child Evangelism

[…]on God’s timing. Pray with faith, believing. Be concerned, but don’t push. The Plan 1. God loves you. Recite John 3:16 with your child’s name in place of “the world.” 2. Show the child his or her need of a Savior. Deal with sin carefully. There is one thing that cannot enter heaven–sin. Be sure your child knows what sin is. Ask him to name some (things common to children–lying, sassing, disobeying, etc.). Sin is doing or thinking anything wrong according to God’s Word. It is breaking God’s law. Ask the question “Have you sinned?” If the answer is no, […]

From Mid to Married to Mom

[…]tired, tried, and weary,Help him see Your love so clearly. Lord, I pray for comfort too,For Your love and peace to shine right throughThe dark times when I’m feeling lonely,Missing my husband and wishing that only; While he’s gone that time would fly,And when he’s home that it’d creep by.I look to You Lord, set me free,From all my worries enslaving me. For I know and trust that Your plan is best,You’re my fortress, my stronghold, and in You I rest.I thank You Lord for blessing me with suchA wonderful husband who loves me so much! It’s for him I […]

How Should a Christian Live?

[…]that I am sure must not be common. First, I am a philosophy major, and as you can assume, I love reading anything from C.S. Lewis and Sproul to Rand and Nietzsche. I am compelled to point out the flaws in the arguments that are presented, which makes me ask a lot of questions. Additionally, I am an Augustinian; I tend to binge on pleasure and then retreat to an almost monastic existence, but it is difficult for me to maintain either state for too long. I have been pegged by some as fickle and by others as just plain […]

I Only See Green

[…]We can only do that by putting our hearts and eyes on Christ and by praying for the strength to love one another unconditionally. Racism could end in a day. That day when all of God’s children accept Jesus Christ as Savior and vow to try to live up to His teachings. People would know that we are all created in the perfect image of God (Gen 1:27). We all descended from Adam and Eve so no matter what race we are, we all come from the same blood (Acts 17:26). God wants to save all mankind, not just one […]

Implicit Trust

[…]a sinner becomes a saint. It is not by prayer or holy living, not by deeds of kindness, labors of love, or works of any kind. These, like the officer’s uniform, follow after. They manifest installment in the new position. Just as the Emperor’s word gave the private the assurance that he had become a captain, so the Word of God provides the sinner who believes and trusts in the Lord Jesus the assurance that he or she has become a child of God, has passed from darkness into His marvelous light, from death to life everlasting. Romans 10:9 (KJV) […]

Lead Your Child to Christ

[…]on God’s timing. Pray with faith, believing. Be concerned, but don’t push.   The Plan: 1. God loves you. Recite John 3:16 with your child’s name in place of “the world.” 2.

Letter to My Sergeant

[…]convicted, of such crimes? God allowed the eyes of my heart to see you through the filter of His love and to respond to you with the love and compassion of Christ. An ageless military axiom comes to mind — soldiers never leave their wounded or dead on the battlefield. These words apply here, and they have added urgency on the spiritual battlefield. You should know that your soul is just as precious to God as anyone’s, even after all you have done. It may be difficult to see now, but God is working His plan of justice and mercy […]

Members: Cast your vote now for OCF Council

[…]hostile toward Christ and His followers, even while it is desperately in need of the hope, love, and healing that Christ alone can provide. The associated challenge is ensuring that all OCF members, from cadets to retirees to associate members, see the necessity and value of personally mentoring, equipping, and encouraging others.  Nominated by: CAPT Chris Blake, JAGC, USNR; COL Hunt Kerrigan, ANG; Col Mike Martin, USAF (Ret.); COL Mike Tesdahl, USA (Ret.)    LTC Eric Hathaway, USA Education: University of Southern Mississippi, BS, 1994  Present assignment: CGSC instructor, Fort Leavenworth, KS Ministry involvement: OCF member since 2007, Bible study […]

Professional Excellence (Durfey)

[…]is devotion to duty. Once again, let us look at dictionary definitions: devotion means strong love or affection or an act of prayer; a duty is any assigned service. These sound very familiar to any Christian who has spent time reading letters from the Apostle Paul. As Christians, we have clear directives to serve, love, obey, and worship the Lord. Notice the acrostic formed from the first letter from each of these directives, “S-L-O-W.” One can gain much more from any experience if “extra” time can be taken. Food shared at the wardroom table with friends in conversation is much […]

Reignited Service

by Col Larry Simpson, USAF (Ret.) “For God gave us a spirit not of fear but of power and love and self-control.” (2 Timothy 1:7 ESV) What is your synonym for fear? Is it trepidation, apprehension, alarm, or dread? Whatever your definition, that is the side of 2 Timothy 1:7 you need to address. My synonym for fear is anxious. I think I fear little, but I admit that I can get anxious about a thing or two. As recently as yesterday, I became anxious over an issue. Then I read 2 Timothy 1:1-14 for a full appreciation of Paul’s […]

Staying Up Late

[…]I asked if I could say a quick prayer for them. “Sure, sir,” the guard said. “Always love it when you pray for us.” I put my arms around their shoulders and prayed for them. I asked that God would be with them throughout the night and help them stay awake and alert. I prayed for their families. And as always, I prayed that all of us would make it through this deployment safely and return home to the ones we love. We all said, “Amen” and with that, I climbed back down the ladder, and headed towards my hooch. […]

Stretchmark Sorority

[…]we mothers share the awesome responsibility of raising children to know and love and walk with our Lord. We share with our mothers and grandmothers the experiences of nursing our children’s fevers, cheering their accomplishments, and constantly kneeling before our God in their behalf. Our Lord cares enough to give us this sense of family, tradition, and connectedness as we seek to walk with him and to be the godly mothers of our own generation, alive with the encouragement, consolation, praise, and laughter of one another. Yes, it is a wonderful sisterhood indeed! “The counsel of the Lord stands forever, […]

The Line Officer and the Chaplain

[…]by the prayers of fellow believers, such officers have unique opportunities to share the truth and love of Jesus Christ. The line of decision and command responsibility runs through the line officer. As staff officers, chaplains recommend and advise. Even their spiritual ministry, however, is justified by the military as part of The Command Religious Program. On the other hand, as line officers you make decisions influencing the lives of everyone in your unit. I praise God for Christians like you who provide leadership both for mission accomplishment and to help the personnel in your unit. Our nation needs leaders […]

The Wounded Healer

[…]that have guided sinners for centuries, “Have mercy on me, O God, according to your unfailing love; according to your great compassion blot out my transgressions” (Psalm 51:1).  The transformation in Diana over the years as she has dealt with her loss and pain is remarkable. Already a sensitive and compassionate woman, those qualities only deepened as she began reaching out to comfort countless others. Through her questions and grief she made room for action by organizing and leading the Kansas City area chapter of the American Gold Star Mothers, remembrance walks, and a local veterans’ memorial to honor the […]

Time, Talent, Treasure: ROTC

[…]studies or disciple others—and often initiate weekend events for outreach or just plain fun. We love the chance to be a part of those events with our family,” said Rob, who relishes the “forever friendships” that have been forged. Seeing a cadet sharing the Word with his roommate at breakfast, or the “aha moment” look on a cadets’ faces they begin to understand God’s love and grace are among the pinnacle moments of ROTC cadets ministry, said Rob.   ROTC Q&A One of your ministry’s most moving moments? Wiseman: There are many, but one of the most memorable was with […]

TTP – Competition

[…]promote healthy competition while maintaining an atmosphere that fits within the boundaries of “Love thy neighbor as thyself?” I learned a very useful technique for achieving this balance in Marine Corps Officer Candidate School. Early in the course, the staff sergeant in charge, our “Sergeant Instructor,” sat us down for instruction on the roles and missions of the various military services. We were expecting a presentation praising the Marine Corps and putting down the rest of DOD. Instead, our Sergeant Instructor presented the different services this way, “The United States Air Force is the premiere air force in the entire […]

We Know This Place Too Well

[…]about mystery, humility, and a hunger to learn more about Someone because of how much we love Him. There’s always an element of mystery to falling in love. USAFA is more exciting when we stumble across a new area we never knew existed. God is more exciting when we dig deep into every word of Scripture…every single day. When we know how much we can’t understand, we witness the birth of awe, wonder, and adventure. The well is infinitely deep, yet we barely scratched the icy surface before we got tired. It’s time to continue the exploration! Let’s become like […]

Wrestling with Depression

[…]hopeless, our Heavenly Father reminds me that I was worth the death of His Son on the cross. God loves me more than I can imagine–and He will never reject me or leave me alone. Jesus came to give us abundant life-lived one day at a time. L.I.F.E. = Living In Faith Every day. “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the Lord, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future” (Jeremiah 29:11). Michael Weiss served thirty years as a U.S. Army Chaplain Assistant, retiring in 2007. He […]
