Beltway Testimonies

Testimony unfolded: May 2009

He knows even when a sparrow falls:

My name is Robert Wheeler.  I have never been in the right frame of mind or been open to or even tried to listen to God before the boot camp….God gave me a message!  I ask Him what He wants me to know, from Him about me.  Then I was just silent….He gave me this message through some dove there.  It was raining and He takes care of everything, even in the rain, and what are those birds supposed to do?  Survive in Him.  This was the message God sent to me.  It’s not flashy or even a new revelation, but it is a confirmation in what I am supposed to be doing.  I know that many folk believe God talks to us, but I have always been a little skeptical, He had never talked to me before that I knew of, after all.  So I asked if this message was from Him or if it was me trying to hard or imagining things.  I asked God that if it was a message from Him then let me hear a dog bark because I hadn’t heard any dogs all weekend….and within two minutes a dog sounded off!  This was by far the best moment of the whole boot camp for me. That is not to say that there were not any other great things going on.  The group of men that I found myself in had to have God’s hand sticking us together!  Those men are true sons of God!  I am looking forward to a long lasting relationship with these warriors for the kingdom!

Corky Dement testifies to how God can use healthy community:

After playing on one of the Beltway Softball teams, I thought we were reaching out to the community. Little did I know that that was part of what happened. What I have gained is new found friendships from within the church body. There is not a Sunday, or Wednesday that I do not run into one of the Guys or their family members. The new found friendships have encouraged me to strengthen my beliefs, increased my prayer life, and walk what I believe. Even helped my self esteem and self worth, who would have thought a few week commitment to 10 other guys could do that!.

Thank you Beltway for sponsoring this ministry! I hope that you will continue to bless us members.
