Unity of Command

[…]He would not speak on His own authority, but whatever He heard from Jesus He would speak (John 16:13). Military officers know how this works. They may not always speak on their own authority, but more often speak the desires of those in authority over them. When I was in military staff meetings there were often arguments and debates over how we should accomplish an objective; but in the end our commander made the decision. Once the commander decided, the staff members put disagreements aside and worked together in unity to attain the objective that the commander prescribed. UOC implies […]

Professional Perspectives for Senior Officers

[…]perform properly on the battlefield. You also have these needs, which include the following: PSALM 119:105. You need light–the ability to “see.” 1 PETER 1.23-25, 2:2. You need food–energy to perform. EPHESIANS 6:10-17. You need protection and weapons. EPHESIANS 5:19 and 6:18,19. You need to communicate–up, down, and laterally. CONTINUE EACH DAY to read God’s Word and to commit your circumstances to Him in prayer. If you have never established this practice, you will need it all the more to maintain His perspective on your situation. If you are a new Christian, and you have not had the opportunity to […]

Time, Talent, Treasure: Retirees

[…]declaring, “…Your power to the next generation, Your might to all who are to come” (Psalm 71:18). Involved in OCF “everywhere we were assigned,” and starting an OCF “if there wasn’t one,” when the Vaughns located to Columbus, Ohio, they started an outreach to ROTC students at The Ohio State University.  The OCF local leaders provide guidance for the student-led Bible studies-and an occasional home cooked meal- while also mentoring cadets and midshipmen one-on-one. Gwynn Vaughn first heard of OCF while attending the Army-Navy banquet, and later led Bible studies as a West Point cadet, attended OCU conferences, and was […]

First Bible Studies

[…]word if you plan to build upon that word later. It will probably take two or three meetings to study this passage with the group. The study does not have specific break points, but you might try to keep the major sections together. In this Bible study, do not think that you have to stick with the script. The script is there to help those who need it as they begin. If you are new to OCF, I especially encourage you to read the script because it contains a lot of valuable information. Whatever you do, be familiar enough with […]

Share this spiritual gift with your teen

[…]volunteer staff. Steve, Audley (a grandfather there with his grandson), Doug, myself and Ryan (SC guide) take a quick trip and climb up to Ptarmigan Lake, which is about 13,000 feet or so. We arrived at the top just as a storm blew in, temperatures dropped, and we witnessed some incredible cloud activity. Audley is inspiring, sets a fast pace. Awesome lake, crystal clear, cold water. Humbling to witness His work here. Fellowship is special that night. Rick has a gift. A true gift. The boys build a camp fire in the pit, hang out that night. Thinking about our […]

Six Generations: 3

[…]preparing to host a Central Texas-wide Christian Men’s Conference. They had planned it for 11 months and briefed the concept to the Garrison Commander, receiving his approval to proceed. When I re-established contact in April of 2002, John and his group had just completed the conference, whose guest speakers included author Stu Weber and pro-football great, Hershel Walker. His note to me: “…we just had a wonderful, blessed time in the Lord…What I found really great about the whole conference was the prayer leading up to the conference. We asked the Lord if just one came and gave his life, […]

A day in the life of OCF

[…]Bryan and Sherri coordinate their schedules so one parent is usually home when the kids are.    1100 Having received his “marching orders” during his quiet time with God, the Simpsons’ home office is up and running planning the next Spiritually Smart Family retreat, OCF’s family outreach to the military society. Before heading off to an OCF workplace luncheon, Larry reads a thank-you note from a soldier’s spouse considering divorce, “…I still struggle, but now want to grow old with the man I married.”   1200 The key word for the lunch hour is work—as in work out at the […]

For All Leaders

[…]evident to all over time. Expect persecution. Jesus warns of this possibility in Matthew 5:11-12; “‘Blessed are you when people insult you, persecute you and falsely say all kinds of evil against you because of me. Rejoice and be glad, because great is your reward in heaven, for in the same way they persecuted the prophets who were before you.'” Seek accountability from a peer. You’ll need to seek this kind of relationship. No one will come up to you and ask if they can hold you accountable! If at all possible, try to select someone who sees you daily […]

Be sensitive to the needs within your group–especially those participants with a family member deployed. Find practical ways to support each […]
