We Honor Disciple-Makers: Ministry to Men Matters!

I’ve been asked many times why I love Men’s Ministries. So here it is.

As a non-Christian, I was invited by friends and HonorBound Motorcycle Ministry to ride my motorcycle to the North Texas District Men’s Ministry Conference in 2013. At the time I cared nothing about ministry, but I wanted to ride. I probably attended church every 3rd Sunday.

In 2014, I was asked to come again, and of course I just wanted to ride. In 2015 I gave my life to the Lord! I’ve attended Men’s Conference each year since. This is my story, this is my song, this is my journey, and this is how I’ve learned discipleship!

I praise God for what he’s done in my life and eight years later I’m a pastor. It’s all about sharing the love of Christ and bringing others along with you. I am appreciative to the men who showed me discipleship!
