I have just returned from MANCAMP.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n No, that’s not an acronym. It’s MANCAMP, where they were not afraid to type the name of the event in all caps.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n We were issued MANCAMP dog tags at check-in.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n There was running and biking and hiking and golf and shooting and fishing and all sorts of very manly activities. I fished pretty much all day Saturday, taking a break only for a lunch of build-your-own sub sandwiches. This was followed by an evening meal (by now I hope you see this coming) of prime rib.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n There was also no shortage of excellent preaching and testimony on God’s strength in our weakness and wonderful music and praise over the three day event. (We sang “Reckless Love” three times. Seriously. Three times.)<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n It’s as if the event was designed by Dan Jones for Dan Jones.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n “So,” you ask, “When did the Kinship Christian Radio blog become an advertising venue for a camp at Pine Haven Christian Assembly just six miles from Park Rapids in northern Minnesota?”<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n An excellent question, dear readers. I’m glad you asked.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n But first, a disclaimer: The opinions you are about to read are solely my own and do not reflect the official position of Kinship Christian Radio, it’s Board of Directors, or any other staff member other than your’s truly. Period.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n It is my opinion that Kinship Christian Radio and Pine Haven Christian Assembly are very, very similar\u00a0 in that both are staffed and supported by people who aren’t just pretending to be Christians. Both organizations obviously rely on prayer and the guidance and blessings of the Holy Spirit to carry out their respective missions. Both organizations also enjoy the blessing of truly dedicated and talented people to serve others in Jesus’ name and to His glory.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n And both organizations are powerful and effective because they are supported by people like you who give of themselves because they have submitted their lives to the King of kings and the Lord of lords.<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n And, even if you’re female, that takes a lot of manly courage.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n <\/p>\n \u00a0Today’s Praise<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n Have I not commanded you? Be strong and courageous. Do not be afraid; do not be discouraged, for the LORD your God will be with you wherever you go.” Joshua 1:9 (NIV)<\/strong><\/span> Written by Dan Jones<\/p>\n <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" I have just returned from MANCAMP.\u00a0 No, that’s not an acronym.
