0pen/Close MasterPlan

The goal of the Champions Training is to be commissioned as a minister to men. By completing the Champions five step process you will be honored as a Champion of Honor with the presentation of a sword. The sword is a symbol of your accomplishment and preparedness to go to battle for your soul, your family, your church, and your community.

These are the simple basics but the details are outlined next. The forms and covenant sample are part of the appendix of our NEW "Champion's Playbook."

MasterPlan
The Commitment – Saying Yes!

bio1.jpgThe Champions of Honor process starts a commitment. This may be as the response to a call from your Pastor, who like Gideon wants his band of men who are true, loyal, and will stand with him. It may be as a result of the beginning of a Men’s Ministry in your church. Either way, it is the result of a man catching a vision that he can be more than he is; that he can be a Champion.

When you catch that vision, it is formalized by signing a Covenant to do the work to complete the mission and be commissioned as a Champion of Honor. Some churches have held “Covenant Signing” Services, but the covenant is between the man, his Pastor and God to complete the Champions Training and be commissioned.

The second part of commitment to Champions of Honor is consistent in our faithfulness to our local church. It is not about the money, it is about commitment and faithfulness of a Champion who consistently gives on a faithful basis to his church. This shows his commitment in the little things. 

It is said that a man’s heart is where his time and money are. If you look at your calendar and checkbook or spending habits, you will see where your heart is. The commitment process therefore challenges the time of a man to study the resources and the money of a man to give something. 

We also ask that you go to the website, www.championsofhonor.com , and register with us so that you can receive updates on the ministry of Champions. If you do not have an email, then write us so we can send you updates.

The Group – Joining a Band of Brothers

bio4.jpg One of the most important parts of the process is the forming of the “Band of Brothers” between the men of that  church. Regular weekly meetings where men can be men is a must. Some come together and grill hamburgers and hot dogs, and have a time of fellowship which is then followed by a time of teaching and breaking into small groups to discuss the teaching. These small groups are so very powerful. As the group gets to know one another, the walls come down, and there is great opportunity for ministry. This is how the “Band of Brothers” begins to form.

There may also be a Men’s Sunday school class to supplement the weekly meeting but you need that men’s night out to seal the deal. Attendance at the meetings are noted, and become an integral part of the commissioning process. No man is an island, and someone who doesn’t attend the groups isn’t going to bind to the band of brothers. Attendance counts towards commissioning requirements.

 

 
The Process - Learning Masculine Godliness

This is where the books come in. The Apostle Paul wrote to the Ephesians that Christ prepares His church by “the washing of water by the word.” By the same token, a man who wants to grow in Godly manhood needs to read the Word and books that are written from a Masculine perspective.


The Warrior Arsenal - Tier 1

The SwordAll of the books listed in the Curriculum have been approved and will count towards commissioning. To be commissioned, a Champion must complete 10 required resources, regularly attend men’s meetings, and read his Bible daily. It is a good idea to journal while going through your training. Tier 1 has specific requirements to round out the maculine journey and the sword is presented upon completion in a commissioning service. There is a $75 commissioning fee.

He must also be part of a small group of men or lead one. Reproducing champions is encouraged at this level as well as developing your armor.

The plan is that simple. It is a challenge for men to grow in Christ as a man and then to help other men grow in Christ as well. It truly develops ‘Bands of Brothers.’

 
The Commisioning - Completing the Process

bio2.jpgA man who has kept the Covenant with his Pastor, become part of the “Band of Brothers,” and has completed the 10 resources, is eligible to be commissioned.

To be commissioned, the candidate must complete and turn in a copy of the Resource Completion Form for each of the 10 requirements to his pastor. The pastor or leader will then complete a Request for Commissioning Form and it will be submitted to national office of Champions of Honor with a $75 1st tier commissioning fee, followed by scheduling a commissioning service. Recognition services for the 2nd and 3rd tiers will be handled on a case by case basis with the church and Champions office. 2nd tier recognition is $50.
