A day in the life of OCF

[…]couples. As the transitioning takes place, learning the ropes of conference center management, there are also upcoming programs, speakers, and staff that need to be lined up now. It’s a long day as interim director Charlie Sturgis works through budget issues at Spring Canyon.    1700 For over twenty-two years Greg and Lucy Lane have served OCF on Council, in small groups at Fort Campbell, and in ROTC ministry. Greg’s leather Bible and Diet Coke stand in stark contrast to the Austin Peay State University cadets’ iPhone-accessed Bibles and neon power drinks. But together they are examining what the Bible […]

Service Separations

[…]People.” In the poem, a traveler asks a prophet in the town he is entering what kind of people are there. The prophet asks the traveler what kind of people were in the town he just left. When the traveler replies that they were knaves and fools, the prophet tells him that this town has the same kind of people. Later in the day, another traveler asks the same question, and the prophet again asks what kind of people were in the town he left. This person replies that they were good, true, and wise, and the wise man smilingly […]

Professional Perspectives for Senior Officers

[…]have significant implications for leaders in their professional and spiritual responsibilities. There are several important principles you can glean from them– Counsel, guidance and vision are leadership responsibilities. They flow from the top down.

The beneficiary is to be the people, the nation, […]

Some Thoughts for Christians

[…]is about all I find prescriptive or direct in Scripture about the role of government. There are several roles implied by example of governments set up by God in the Old Testament. But, again, the only clearly prescriptive role seems to be that focused on in Romans 13:1-7 which I would summarize as providing a modicum of justice and order in societies of sinful men. Further, conspicuous by its absence in Scripture, is clear support for a particular form of government. What strikes me is that these matters which seem so very important to us seem not so to God.

Operation Iraqi Freedom

[…]the last several months. And continue to pray for the Iraqi people and the soldiers still over there. There is a long and unconventional road still ahead of them.

Six Generations: 3

[…]Jesus as my Lord and Savior 20 July 1996…that Scripture has stayed with me until this day. “There was something different about this man, different from other chaplains I had met previously in the battalion. At the time I didn’t know what it was, but later realized that he had a light that shined. There was something in this man’s life that I wanted, too. He was compassionate and very friendly, always had time for others and what was best is that he brought people together. We had services in Bosnia and people came to hear what this man of […]

Through A Glass Darkly

[…]of his not coming back. There was always that chance, but I prayed for the strength for each day, and each day brought enough to be concerned about. I did get discouraged with the voices that said, They won’t remember their dad. On especially wearing days, it was a temptation just to tuck them in bed, but we kept on with the prayers and kisses. Were they too young? I wondered. Months passed and Beki was growing. While dainty Laura had begun walking at nine months, chunky Beki was now fifteen months old and a hefty armload–and she still wasn’t […]

How does the Lord see you?

[…]you hold a spiritual commission from Him to love and serve others, placing you right where you are to share the same joys, tears, fears, challenges, and broken hearts with those around you. It is a very special calling that only you can fulfill—serving the Lord while serving your nation. I encourage you: spend time with the Lord, and think about how He sees you, even if you haven’t fully come to terms with it yet. But once you do, you will hear the Lord say, “Whom shall I send?” Step out confidently in God’s great love, “Here I am. […]

Further insights from Mike and Angie Moyles

[…]“Why me” is more difficult, but the answer is largely the same: faith, fitness, family. There are explanations—smoking, obesity, malnutrition, other clear links—in some cases. In my case, there’s no explanation. I was in the lowest risk group. But it didn’t matter. The key is to be ready to fight at any time. Be ready, every day, to fight for your life. …His wife, Angie…  I saw something in her that was different from many of my friends and other girls I had dated—clearly unique, having a special spark. I now know it was the light of Christ that I’d […]
