Why does the caged bird sing?
🎶 I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings Sometimes the song isn’t about comfort… it’s about survival, faith, and hope. A bird in a cage sings because deep down it still believes in freedom. It still believes there’s more beyond what it currently sees. And spiritually, many of us have had seasons where life felt limiting, heavy, or uncertain—, but somehow God still placed a song in our spirit. Your song is your testimony.Your worship.Your resilience.Your reminder that your current situation does not have the final word. So this week, choose your song intentionally. Let it encourage you, strengthen you, and reconnect you to purpose. 🎵 What song has been speaking to your spirit this week? Drop it in the comments so we can build a playlist of encouragement together. 🙏🏾 :

Measure your GROWTH
GROWTH doesn’t happen by accident… it happens through daily discipline. 👑 Real discipleship is not just about attending church — it’s about becoming the kind of man who consistently walks with God even when nobody is watching. The G.R.O.W.T.H. principles remind us to: 🙏 Go to God in prayer daily 📖 Read God’s Word daily ✅ Obey God moment by moment 🗣️ Witness for Christ through your life and words 🤝 Trust God with every detail of your life 🔥 Honor the Holy Spirit by allowing God to guide and empower you daily Strong men aren’t built overnight. They’re built through consistency, surrender, and spiritual growth one day at a time. Iron sharpens iron. Let’s grow together. 💪🏾👑 👇🏾 COMMENT BELOW:Which TWO of these are the most challenging for you right now — and why? #KingsMen #Discipleship #Faith #ChristianMen #Growth #Leadership #MaxPotential #IronSharpensIr :::

Going to Godand reading his word daily I have no problem with but if I'm being open and honest, obeying moment by moment would be one for me because sometimes I do follow/draw to my own selfish desires and I guess that brings me to the (die to self daily). Our flesh wars against our spirit everyday and I've come to the fact that just like a boxer we don't when every fight (ask Iron Mike) but we get up and try again. Second: trusting God with every detail. Again, there are times when I lean upon myself and in those times I normally mess up. Its like Romans 7; when I want to do right evil is always present. Oh! wretched man that I am (can you hear me beating up on myself)

Your Role in the Goal
Sometimes it can be difficult figuring out how you fit in, but as one of my mentors James Davis says, "know that everyone has a Role in the Goal. You have a hand in God's plan." - Acts 1:8: Believers are called to be witnesses of Christ, sharing what they have seen and experienced. Review this VIDEO IN THE COURSE to identify your role. then come back and COMMENT YOUR THOUGHTS about the short video and your possible role in God's goal for Evangelism.

GM. In Evangelism I understand that one plants another waters but it's God who gives the increase. I think when we share Christ with others and they may not come to Christ at that moment we kinda forget our role. Its God who gives the increase nit us and it doesn't say right then or any particular time frame. So we must remember that sowing and repeating, seed time and harvest are all a process just as Evangelism is. Which brings me to the question; if I plant who waters 🤔🤔🤔. Is it the Holy Spirit???

Doing vs Asking questions
GM all. In reference to this morning's devo, I know we're to obey God but is it ok sometimes to ask questions to get a clearer understanding/direction from him and when we do is that being disobedient. In Luke 5:4-5 Jesus asks Peter to push out a little further and Peter's reply was we've done that already. Was that being disobedient???

Receiving restoration after you have offended someone or giving restoration by allowing someone back into your life that has offended you? Comment below and let us know.

I know we've all heard the phrase I can forgive but I won't forget. I've heard many different opinions (I guess because we're all different) but can I ask you & our group about this because seems like that's where I'm at. I can't forgive because I haven't forgotten

Good morning all. While reading Charles Stanley devotional (Praying on Our Knees) the words came up "Only God can soften a Heart and Open a Mind". That made me think of what we've been discussing about forgiveness. Example: it's easy to forgive my neighbor next door who constantly blocks my driveway; but my close friend who I give my house key and ask to watch my house and take in my mail while I'm away and something important comes up missing;. That's a hard pill to swallow and that can really sever the relationship. I can never Trust him that way again and more than likely our interactions won't be the same. All I'm saying is when it's close to home (no pun intended) it's hard to forgive and forget. (I use this only as an example).
