Do you know that song by Casting Crowns that ask if we are the Body why aren’t our hands helping, why aren’t are feet moving?

Well, I have been asking that same question over the last couple of months.

My walk with the Lord is more then just fellowship, Bible study, Sunday school and Sunday morning worship. My walk (yes I know everyone’s walk is different) includes a deep desire to serve others in need. I have become very frustrated with Men who call themselves Christians but just want to be served!

Please pray for me I want to be kind and have understanding for those men and where their walk is with the Lord but COME ON NOW!

How can a man read James 2:14-18 and then sit on their hands? How can a true change have accrued with out the desire to take action?

Men by nature are doers, we like to fix things, just ask our wife’s we are always trying to fix their problems even when they just want us to sit an listen. Sometimes we break stuff just so we can fix it. What is it in a Man that causes him not to want to invest time and energy in something that would serve their Lord and his people?

Update on FBC Kyle

Pastor Jeff has been in place for right at six months and has done a great job leading the church more to Christ and the great commission. We established a Vision team and they are ready to present their findings to the Church as a whole on Nov 16, 2008. Please be praying for this meeting and FBC Kyle. In addition we have been doing some needed repairs to the church and making it more inviting for our visitors.

FBC Kyle Men’s Ministry

I have created T-shirts for the Men to wear when we do service activities. We will not be selling them because I am using them to get the men to come to the Service activities. What I have found is once you get the men to show up and work they have such a good time helping someone and fellowshipping with the other Men that the next time there is a service activity they come with out asking. So I’m using the shirts to encourage the first timers to come out and help and get a Men’s Ministry T-shirt. Our next Service activity is Nov 8^th, we will be repairing a deck that has a wheel chair ramp for a family that just recently lost their trailer to a fire. They now have a new trailer but need the deck to be attached to the new trailer. So pray that we have enough men and that we are able to minister to this family.

Praise the Lord FBC Kyle has called a new pastor. After almost two years of searching we have found the Lords man for our Church. This pass weekend Bro Jeff and his family came to Kyle to meet the church family. We the pastor search committee spend many a days and nights in meeting and in prayer looking for Gods man. Now we as a church can take the next step in reaching the lost in our community.

We had time of questions/answers, fellowship and a powerful sermon on Sunday. The church voted and elected to issue a call to Bro Jeff and his family. The vote was 99.7% in favor of bringing Bro Jeff on the field.
