It is now two weeks since the TripleM Camp at Lake Nillahcootie. The camp overall was great, but more importantly, the Courageous Movie has left us with a significant legacy for us to pursue in the remainder of 2012. All too often we go to a camp or a conference, get excited for a day and then go back to our normal life. Well, we have committed to not do that, instead, we have laid out a plan. Part of that plan will be to get more men to see the movie, but also more men to take up the challenge of the Resolution.

The Resolution

I DO solemnly resolve before God to take
full responsibility for myself, my wife and my children.

I WILL love them, protect them, serve them, and teach them the Word of God as the spiritual leader of my home.

I WILL be faithful to my wife, to love and honour her, and be willing to lay down my life for her as Jesus Christ did for me.

I WILL bless my children and teach them to love God with all of their hearts, off of their minds, and all of their strength.

I WILL train them to honour authority and live responsibly.

I WILL confront evil, pursue justice, and love mercy.

I WILL pray for others and treat them with kindness, respect, and compassion.

I WILL work diligently to provide for the needs of my family.

I WILL forgive those who have wronged me and reconcile with those I have wronged.

I WILL learn from my mistakes, repent of my sins, and walk with integrity as a man answerable to God.

I WILL seek to honour God, be faithful to His church, obey his Word, and do His will.

I WILL courageously work with the strength God provides to fulfill this resolution for the rest of my life and for His glory.

What do you think of this challenge? How do you think we should respond to this? How will you respond to this challenge?

We will begin to unbolt each part of The Resolution in the coming weeks.
