Join us for a night of food, fellowship and giveaways. Tickets are $35 each and include a barbecue plate with samples of wild game. All proceeds benefit the Cross Point Toy & Coat Giveaway in December. This year's speaker is Rick Burgess.
“After my youngest son went to Heaven, I was trying to get ready to go back to work, and I could not tie my shoes I was so weak. I questioned the Lord, “How can you expect me to go back on the air and do this show when I can’t even tie my shoes?” The Lord replied in my spirit, “Now you are ready. Your problem was never that you weren’t strong enough. Your problem was that you weren’t weak enough, but now you’re ready. Now I can use you like I never could before.”
Rick Burgess is the host of The Rick Burgess Show, which is heard and seen by 1.5 million people weekly. Rick is also the director of TheManChurch.com, which is a hub for resources and a strategy designed to reach and disciple men. The strategy is currently being used by hundreds of churches across the nation and around the world. Rick has authored and co-authored several devotionals for men, including the How to Be a Man series, Transformed, and Sin Always Matters. Rick also does marriage conferences with his wife Sherri, they have five children Brandi, Blake, Brooks, Brody and Bronner. Rick’s eulogy for his son Bronner was the number one most viewed video in the world on YouTube for a week in January of 2008.
He has been married to the former Sherri Bodine since 1996. During a marriage counseling conversation with the pastor who would marry them, Rick was confronted with the sin in his life that could not be justified for anyone who claimed to have been transformed by the power of Jesus Christ. “I realized that I only believe believed in Jesus in a historical sense and that I had never truly become his disciple,” Rick said. “It was only then that I submitted to the Lordship of Jesus Christ, and my life has never been the same.” Rick is a frequent speaker at church services and youth and marriage conferences, but his true passion is men’s ministry.
Rick is calling on the modern church to put into practice what they say every Father’s Day, that a man’s family will follow him if he will lead them. “Let’s teach our men how to be the spiritual leaders of their homes,” Rick said. “If you take the men of the church from spiritual infancy to spiritual maturity, you will solve a lot of problems in the church and in our world today.”
