Real Men Eat Steak

Ray, the Grill Meister

The charcoal was white hot, the beef was center cut, and the speaker was top notch. The Annual Men's Steak Out provided nourishment for the body as well as the soul. I especially enjoyed having Josh, Jon, Lucas and one of their friends with me tonight.

Carl Gonder shared about how God has used failures in his life to help him grow. In a time of true confession, Carl admitted that he brought chicken to grill instead of steak! And in a moment of contrition, he promised to bring beef next year. Carl challenged the young men and old alike, to not fear failure. He encouraged us to move beyond our comfort zones and to take steps of faith.

Every man knows that there is more to life than safety and comfort. Every man knows deep in his heart that he has been created to live a heroic life. Every man knows that he is called to live for something bigger than himself. Every man knows that you bring red meat to a Steak Out! Every man knows that real men eat steak! We love you Carl!
