HonorBound meets every
third Saturday |
| “HonorBound: Men of Promise
is all about growing godly men. It is the new Pentecostal ministry to
men that has a close working relationship with PromiseKeepers.
Our desire is for the national men's movement to
move into the local church through a focused and vigorous ministry to
men that will cause men to come alive. Men have specific needs that must
be met within the male context. HonorBound is targeting the spiritual
growth in men, challenging them to recognize God's call on their lives
and be godly men. HonorBound is not what a man does, it's who he is. It
is our desire to challenge men to be aware of their need for God and
grow in God.” |
| “HonorBound: Men of Promise
is more than a new name for men's ministries in the Assemblies of God.
It is a new way of looking at oneself as a godly man. As a result, it
embodies the vision of where we are trying to go with all the men who
are adherents to Assemblies of God churches throughout the United
States. The major change in philosophy is to challenge men to think
about who they are in Christ when they think of the name HonorBound: Men
of Promise.
HonorBound rests on four basic principles, all of
which come from the Word of God. In John 5:23, Jesus declares that to
honor Him is to honor our Father who is in heaven. In Matthew 15:4, the
Lord also said that we are to honor our father and mother; and in this
statement laid down a principle for honoring our families. And then the
apostle Paul, in 1 Timothy 5:3, said we are to make provisions for those
who are in need. In 1 Peter 2:17, the apostle Peter says we are to honor
those who have authority over us. These four principles paint a picture
of what it means to be an HonorBound man. At the very core of being
HonorBound is the idea of honor in every sense of the word. If a man can
look himself in the mirror and see himself as someone different, someone
dressed in the full armor of God, fully ready to take on life as a man
of honor, then we will have accomplished the vision of HonorBound: Men
of Promise.” |
