OUTSTANDING MEN OF GOD (O.M.G.)
Tuesday, October 23rd - 7PM - RM. 1
DISCUSSION: “Tension” FACILITATOR: Dr. Jerome F. Coleman
AUTHENTIC MANHOOD: A Man And His Work
Work and career play a major role in the life of every man. This volume of 33
The Series begins by recognizing the obstacles and
tensions that men can experience in their work-lives
and the unfolds a process that helps men move beyond
the conventional perspective of work that can lead to
dead ends and frustration. It leads them to a bigger,
biblical vision of work that goes back to God’s original
intentions. A Biblical Blueprint of work is introduced
to serve as a guide that man can apply to their work
journey as they seek to come alive and live out God’s
will in their work. Some biblical and modern exam-
ples will men begin to understand how they can apply
the Blueprint to their lives. Also included are: key essentials that help men live
out the Blueprint; dangerous work traps that can derail a work journey; and
important catalyzers to help maximize their work experiences. Work is too
important for us to settle. It is a huge part of who God made us to be. It is
essential to understand and master God’s vision of work for us in order to live
out work-lives full of passion and purpose.
The Whosoever Will Choir will sing at both services
