How does a ministry REALLY reach the military?
The numerous souls of a group of people often ignored in the context of evangelistic efforts may remain unaccounted for unless someone takes an aggressive stance towards reaching our nations heroes.
The answer to the question “How do we reach them?” can be found in the Word of God, “From the days of John the Baptist until now, the kingdom of heaven has been forcefully advancing, and forceful men lay hold of it.” (Matthew 11:12) NIV.
The Kingdom of God is advancing and Force Ministries is at the tip of the spear, where we love to be. We have been developing our next phase of ministry to the military and are proud to introduce “More Than Conquerors” (MTC). MTC is going to be the loudest voice Force Ministries has had so far. March 9th & 10th, 2007 will mark the first of many arena and stadium events that we will be hosting here in the USA and around the world. These events will boast incredible music from some of the most talented bands, and extraordinary speakers, bringing a clear message of salvation and leading thousands of our military men and women to Jesus Christ.
After years of research and development in the area of ministry to our military, the one thing we have come back is the simple statement of Matthew 11:12. We need to be aggressive in our efforts to reach our military.
One of the most crucial elements of an MTC Stadium Event will be the follow-up. Those who make the decision to passionately embrace Jesus Christ in their hearts are faced with the cold fact that the enemy wants steal or destroy that “newness of life”. As thousands come to embrace the living/loving God, someone needs to be there for them. Force Ministries has begun monthly MTC mini events (which we are sure will become a weekly event by late 2006 or early 2007) to train and raise up mentors to help these new believers at our first event. These monthly events are where we impart Faith in Christ, instill patterns and principles for victorious Christian duty and ignite destiny. This is how someone can learn to be a successful, impacting Christian, spreading the Gospel of Jesus throughout our military.
