"Congrats, Class of 2022! I am proud to have you s

"Congrats, Class of 2022! I am proud to have you serving in our military during such a consequential time in our global operating environment. As you close this chapter, pin those glorious 2LT bars, and walk over the finish line of a long and arduous college experience, WELL DONE. The next chapter of your life will be challenging in new ways and rewarding in even greater ones.

If you’ve spent the last four years grounded in the Truth and within a loving, Christ-like community, keep that glorious momentum going! If (like me) you were dying to drive away from campus and not look back, having spent those years separated from God – there is always a way home. Our God is a loving Father who is always waiting with open arms for His children to return – no matter how far they have wandered. This new chapter of your life may be a perfect opportunity for rededication and commitment to knowing Jesus better.

Wherever the Lord sends you, there are fellow Christians there that are searching for and needing community just like you. Isolation is the devil’s foothold and it is easy to find yourself in isolation when PCSing – especially for the first time! I’ve been there. My husband has been there. We have friends that have been there. But Joshua 1:9 says, 'Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the Lord your God will be with you wherever you go.' Wherever you go. OCF was the home away from home for me. When I was alone at a new duty station, I found a family within my OCF bible study (which my mom made me go to, even at 22 years old) and they kept me accountable as I found my way back into relationship with Jesus. I pray you can find community wherever you go, too.

As you continue your journey in relationship with Christ, may you remain in His will and grounded in His truth so that when the day comes that you enter the kingdom of Heaven you hear those beloved words, 'Well done, good and faithful servant.'" -@lindsbowen4 (ROTC at Baylor University, Class of 2014)

Our home office team enjoyed its own #ocffellowshipfriday today as we dove into the new OCF Handbook with Director of @ocf_field_engagement Hous Waring. In addition to developing steward-leaders across the ministry, this resource casts vision for military ministry, explains OCF, discusses the military Christian life, encourages personal spiritual growth, and gives ideas for executing member-led ministry. Stay tuned for more details when this tool becomes available later this year!

Rocky Mountain High at @springcanyon is so much more than an adventure program. Like RMHer Anna Sandlin, joined by husband and fellow RMHer Aaron, says here, the big benefit of this program is the mentorship that prepares the next generation of military officers for the unique challenges ahead. Visit springcanyon.org/rmh to choose from one of eight available weeks today!

Have you had an Elijah experience where you called

Have you had an Elijah experience where you called out to the Lord with a prayer He answered differently than you expected?

Our home office staff reflected today on Charles Spurgeon's devotional, excerpted here, on 1 Kings 19. Elijah prays to die and the Lord denies this prayer as Elijah meant it but ultimately answers by taking him to heaven in a chariot of fire.

Even when God doesn't answer our prayers how we think He will, we can trust He, in His sovereignty and goodness, will always answer in a way for our good and for His glory.

Be sure to thank the military spouses in your community on this fine #militaryspouseappreciationday! This lifestyle is as much a calling as that of the servicemember. We're so grateful for all the military spouses who support his or her servicemember in countless ways, and it's been an honor to serve these spouses and share their stories over the years. Head to our website (links in Instagram stories) to check out these reads.

On this #NationalDayofPrayer, how can we be praying for you? Visit the link in our bio today (and any day!) to submit a prayer request through our website so our team can lift you up in prayer.

We begin this next #ocfmonthlytheme of prayer by posing one question: Who is the object of your prayer life?

We may be quick to think prayer is a way for us to ask the Lord for our heart's desires, but a right focus on His heart for prayer in His commands to "pray without ceasing" (1 Thessalonians 5:17) shows us how we ought to view this spiritual discipline. The object of a life of prayer is less about what we ask and more about Whom we seek—the infinite, holy God who desires continual community with us. How does seeking God first in relationship transform your prayer life?

Happy #NationalMilitaryBratsDay to all the militar

Happy #NationalMilitaryBratsDay to all the military kids out there! The military lifestyle means moving across the country and across the world, making new friends and reconnecting with old ones, saying the hardest goodbyes and the happiest hellos, and so much more. So many unique experiences make up the "military brat" title, and it's a title proudly used. Tag your favorite brats in the comments below!

ROTC cadets at Furman University meet for fellowsh

ROTC cadets at Furman University meet for fellowship and prayer in style as they get together once a week right after PT! Cadet Chase Kuhlman reports the OCF group has been studying chapters of the New Testament and seeing God work through their academics and leadership development.

They ask for prayers as they’re currently in the thick of final exams. Once the spring semester comes to a close, @_chase.k_ says the group looks forward to sending a few of their cadets to Rocky Mountain High, @springcanyon's leadership development program!

Welcome to OCF's Home Office, located in Denver, C

Welcome to OCF's Home Office, located in Denver, Colorado! Did you know OCF used to be based outside of East Lansing, Michigan? Leadership began to think about a relocation back in 1969 due to Denver's proximity to USAFA, @springcanyon, and a variety of military installations, and airport accessibility to visit local stateside fellowships was a bonus, too. The Home Office serves as a hub of OCF ministry activity ranging from connecting members to developing programs to stewarding finances and everything in between.

Continuing April's #ocfmonthlytheme of leadership.

Continuing April's #ocfmonthlytheme of leadership... How are Jesus’ words in Matthew 20:26-28 countercultural, and what does servant leadership look like in your own leadership roles?

Today's #ocffellowshipfriday features not one but

Today's #ocffellowshipfriday features not one but two OCF ministries, who enjoyed Easter retreats at @springcanyon in Colorado and @wssocf in Pennsylvania this past weekend.

Pastor Roc Bottomly walked 52 USAFA cadets through the topic "The Wonder of Jesus," and, to God's glory, several cadets chose to be baptized in the ponds at @springcanyon.

Meanwhile, CH(COL) Doug Ball spoke about 1 Corinthians 15 with 43 midshipmen from @ocf_navy, who joined over 100 military singles, couples, and families at @wssocf's annual Resurrection Retreat.

Looking for Christian fellowship at a service academy? Message us! We'd love to put you in touch with our Field Staff at those locations.

What keeps you from sharing your faith with others

What keeps you from sharing your faith with others? #OCFCrosspoint host Josh Jackson (left) sat down with Captain Ryan McCary, Georgia Air National Guard (right), yesterday to talk about this question and more. Listen now to what Ryan wishes he'd known about sharing his story, and stay tuned for the full episode, coming this summer wherever you listen to podcasts.

In the meantime, we still need guests to share their stories about military life at the intersection of faith, family, and profession for the third season of Crosspoint! Visit the link in our bio to learn more and let us know if you're interested.
