National Father's Day Rally Set for Lincoln Memorial
 WACMM has joined a coalition of ministries and organizations including the National Center for Fathering and Man in the Mirror to sponsor the first National Fatherhood Rally at the Lincoln Memorial on Saturday, June 20 from 10AM-2:00PM.
The Rally is an effort to change the culture for today's children and future generations by calling men to make a formal commitment to their children and then challenging them to fulfill it. By Father's Day, the goal is for 1,000,000 men to make their commitment to love their children, coach their children, model for their children, encourage other children, and enlist other dads to join the team.

Are You Onboard A Cruise Ship or Battle Ship?
A. W. Tozer wrote, "The
idea that this world is a playground instead of a battleground has now been
accepted in practice by the vast majority of Christians...The 'worship' growing
out of such a view of life is as far off center as the view itself - a sort of
sanctified nightclub without the champagne and the dressed-up drunks."
We could also say that for many men today Christian life is more a cruise ship rather than a battleship. Are you mostly interested in wanting your needs accommodated and having a comfortable experience? Or are you looking to be equipped for battle and deployed for action in enemy occupied territory? Cruise ships are created for the pleasure of those paying to sail with them. Everything on
the ship is for comfort and emotional well being. There are lots of options for
everything including what food you like, what shows you attend, and
what activities you choose to do. The design of the ship is opulent and pleasing to the eyes. It seems everything shines and glimmers!
Battleships on the other hand are built for mission, not for comfort. They are equipped with
weapons of warfare. Every sailor knows why they are onboard and what
their job is. There are places to sleep, shower and eat but the primary
purpose of everything is to complete the mission.What ship are you on?
