“For the last seven or eight years, I have been blessed to be part of a Net Work Ministries men’s group. The most immediate benefit has been reading some terrific Christian books and bouncing ideas off the other guys. The insights and ideas on how to apply various aspects of the Christian life have been extremely valuable to me.
Beyond the studies, the relationships have been great. Over the years I have come to know and love these guys, and I consider several of them close friends. One of the unanticipated offshoots of the Wednesday group has been an informal cycling gang with occasional rides involving different guys. We’re still trying to get old Buck out on the Silver Comet Trail in his special spandex shorts. (Not going to happen,)
Even more important than the camaraderie, however, has been the encouragement and support. Over the years, we each have experienced various ups and downs, and through it all, the concern, prayers and support of the group have helped us see the love of Christ in action. I personally experienced this in a huge way in the summer of 2003 when my teen-aged daughter nearly died from a rare reaction to a prescription drug. Although the Lord ministered to my wife and me in incredible ways, the prayers and notes from my Net Work Ministries brothers provided a practical reminder of God’s involvement in our lives.
To sum up, I greatly value my involvement with Net Work and never miss a meeting when my schedule allows.”
