When: Tuesday’s from 6:30-7:30am
Where: Edgewater Gathering Place

Begins September 7th – one hour of fellowship, bible study, and breakfast for the men of Edgewater United Methodist Church.

Jesus called out to them, “Come, be my disciples …” (Matt. 4:19) “The Lord now chose … other disciples and sent them on ahead in pairs….” (Luke 10:1).

As we gather this weekend to celebrate Independence Day, let us all remember the sacrifices made for our freedom by the brave men and women of the United States Armed Forces. It’s easy to forget what happened many years ago. Check out this video and take a minute to share it with your friends and family, especially your children. It’s important that they know our history and the freedoms we have as a result of great sacrifice. Turn up the volume and get some tissues.

What if God came to you? What if He helped you know what to do? What if He gave you confidence about your future? How ’bout if He called you on your cell? Would ya answer?

God speaks. He wrote a book and He wants you to know it….Here’s a chance for you to get it on your terms.

We’re all busy people. So, get the Bible on your phone with 411God. Sign up!

All of us have this internal battle. Are we going to choose the good in us or the evil in us? Its a battle for our hearts.

Have you noticed that more men are curious and are asking questions about what it takes to follow Christ—to join His army? For the call of Christ is in our DNA—and in these times men’s true desires are rising to the surface. God is up to something very special in this generation. But the way of God seems blurry and hard to find.

“Get ready for war! Call out your best warriors!” Joel 3:9 (NLT)

“The Lord is a warrior, the Lord is his name.” Exodus 15:3 (NIV)

Join His Army! Join the Brotherhood!

Edgewater United Methodist Church

For too long the men of God’s church have stood by idly while the enemy surrounds us, our families, our communities and our churches. Edgewater’s Alpha Chi (Brothers in Christ) is a Band of Brothers.

The time has come for us to stand together!

Join the Brotherhood…
