In just two weeks we are showing the new Christian film “Courageous”. This film is being used by the Lord to make a tremendous impact on men and families. Many of you have received some free tickets to pass along to your friends, co-workers, or neighbors. This movie is packed with a message of challenge to families to be everything they should for Christ. Sometimes we all get misplaced priorities and this film will cause us to re-examine our commitment to what really matters in life.
Pray that we, as a church, will do all we possibly can to fill the sanctuary at 4:00PM and 6:30PM on Sunday, January 29th. God can and wants to use Ingalls Avenue to make a difference in this city. Will you let Him use you to be a part of this difference?
Michael Catt in his book, “Courageous Living” tells a story of a battle where the flag bearer got so far ahead of the regiment that the officer called back to headquarters and asked, “Shall we bring the flag back to the regiment?” The commanding officers said, “No, make the regiment catch up with the flag!!”
He went on to say how that, “Today we need men with hearts of a warrior: men who will run to catch up with the flag Christ carries ahead of us. Men who won’t turn back. Men who stand up and take responsibility for their role as men.”
We need some men and families who will be COURAGEOUS!
In Christ,

I am so excited about this new year with all of its opportunities and maybe even some challenges along the way. Our first opportunity has already begun and that is our Upward Basketball ministry. We have the privilege of sharing Christ with literally hundreds of people every time we gather for games. We have already had two or three families worship here who have their children playing Upward Basketball. PRAY that God will use this sport for us to lead many people to Jesus and the abundant life He offers.
The second opportunity is for us to reach out to our community and city by showing the powerful life changing movie “Courageous”. You need to see it and we need to get neighbors, relatives, coworkers, and anybody else you know to participate. There are two different times on Sunday, January 29th. We will show the movie at 4:00PM and 6:30PM and free child care is available. This movie challenges families to be what they ought and especially encourages the fathers to be the right kind of leader in the home.
Please PRAY that we will see some people saved and homes put back together. God wants to use you to make a difference in someone else’s life for eternity.
