TAKE A LOOK AT THIS GREAT VIETNAMESE CMN LEADER
 

Dear Brother,

This Vietnamese man IS equipped with the CMN resources he needs to live a successful Christian life in a communist country and reach other men for Christ.

Please help more men like him

Join with the brotherhood on October 4-5 (next Monday & Tuesday), from 9-11 pm Central (10 pm -12 am  Eastern). We will broadcast straight from the CMN studios to the men and leaders of Vietnam, translated in their own language. 

View it here: CMN YouTube Channel.

Would you please consider giving a generous gift today to help support this broadcast? It’s not too late to help Vietnamese men know Jesus!

Each “Dangerous Nations” broadcast costs roughly $20,000. Faithful men have given toward this Monday’s broadcast, but the budget is incomplete. 

Every $100 helps train a leader, who will then train 20-200 men. Every $10 matters.

Live and in-person at the Global Summit: Paul Louis Cole, John Binkley, and Robert Barriger at the CMN Summit 

Dear Brother,

Think your battle looks too hard? I wish you could have joined me in Peru for 320 days in total lockdown.

In March 2020, Paul Cole and I were headed to Argentina to conduct a massive men’s event when instead, everything shut down. Paul was able to catch the last flight out of Peru at 2:30 in the morning. As the last plane left, everything stopped in Peru. 

During the next 320 days, our church family was scattered. Covid invaded our house—twice. Friends lost their lives. Karyn and I were huddled at home, unable to help, restricted even from going out on the streets. It was a tough, tough time.

When I was a kid, I dreamed of doing things. But I was a fatherless runaway living on the beach, riding waves every day. Then I met Jesus and got a new dream. I dreamed of a church. I dreamed of a ministry. I dreamed of having men in my life like my brothers in CMN. 

God gave me all my dreams and more. But every now and then, especially during this past year, I wonder, why can’t this dream ever get any easier?

Lots of men are thinking the same right now. But—God is speaking to men as he spoke to David centuries ago after a terrible defeat that cost him his family. God’s word for us today is:

After this lockdown, I need to be with men of God, with men of courage, with men who inspire me to have HOPE. To RISE UP AND RECOVER ALL.

What has God done before when I found the courage to rise up and recover all?

I’ll tell you.

My wife, our two babies, and I arrived in Peru 35 years ago. All of our support came from friends through a post office box 12 miles from our house. On my weekly trek to the post office box, I would pray that a check would be there waiting.

On my walk one day, a nine-year-old boy looked up at me and said, “Can I be a woman for you?” He was hungry, so he had learned to prostitute himself to eat. 

I thought, “Oh God, what kind of men would abuse kids this way?”

I prayed hard for God to send someone to help these kids. I prayed hard for my adopted nation. And I prayed hard for enough money to feed my own family for another week.

One day as I prayed, I heard a voice say, “Who will I send?” I had been praying for some big leader to come to help Peru. Instead, God laid it on me. 

I thought, how could that be? I was just a born-again surfer who could barely raise enough money to feed my kids and keep ministering.

Friends helped me build our first orphanage. In the jungle where we ministered, an Ashaninka Indian tribal chief got word to us that his son was going to be kidnapped by terrorists. I asked how many kids were at risk. He said, “All of them.” 

I said, “We’ll take them all.” 

I didn’t know how God would provide, but I had to do what God said to do. 

It wasn’t easy. The dream has never been easy.

We rescued an entire village of kids. The next generation of Ashaninkas was raised in the knowledge of Jesus Christ and that chief’s son went all the way through college.

There’s nothing easy about what God asks us to do, but we just do it anyway. 

In CMN, we say, “We are CMN. We rescue men!” 

JOIN THE BROTHERHOOD AT CMN GLOBAL SUMMIT

It’s not easy to rescue some men. And sometimes, it’s not easy to rescue ourselves.

Some rescues are messy. But let’s do it anyway!

The battle you fight today to recover from the pandemic, to keep your marriage together, to find a new job or a new way to make a living, to build your own business—these are all winnable battles. 

Sure, these are tough days, but we do it anyway.

When you rise up and recover all, the rest of us draw strength and courage from seeing your victories.

And you’ll draw strength and courage from seeing our victories at this year’s “Lions Roar” CMN Global Summit.

SAVE $100 WHEN YOU REGISTER TODAY

So, if somehow my story gives you the hope you need today, I’d love to hear about it at Lions Roar. I’ll see you there.

We are CMN. We rescue men. Even during a pandemic.

Your friend,

Robert Barriger 
And to that, I say: Do it anyway.

This year’s Global Summit, live and in person, will provoke an exponential explosion of fresh ideas, new aggressive implementation, “good works,” powerful strategies for reaching men in the streets and cities of our world.

Every speaker is uniquely qualified to inspire, instruct and engage us to be in the world and reach the world – until we reach every street and every heart.  

Today’s world doesn’t need a few nice guys in the church. The world needs men with resolve who refuse to back down. Men with a sword. Men who are STRONG! 

The Apostle Paul described the clothing of a man who is a warrior, resilient, faithful, bold, and ready for battle.. He said: We are not fighting against flesh-and-blood enemies, but against evil rulers and authorities of the unseen world, against mighty powers in this dark world, and against evil spirits in the heavenly places.
 
Take the helmet of salvation and the sword of the Spirit, which is the word of God. And pray in the Spirit on all occasions with all kinds of prayers and requests. With this in mind, be alert and always keep on praying for all the Lord’s people. (Eph 6:10-12, 17-18)

The sword of the Spirit – that’s our weapon. God’s presence always prevails.

REGISTER TODAY TO JOIN THE BROTHERHOOD.

These are the men who are joining together at the CMN Summit – men with swords. Men who take care of their brothers. Men who gather other men around them to experience the power of the Word together. 

Your family, church, and community need you…a man who is overflowing with confident hope through the power of the Holy Spirit!

Early Registration is open for this year’s annual gathering of the brotherhood in Dallas, TX. November 4 – 6.

REGISTER TODAY and SAVE OVER $100. 

May the Lord bless you and keep you in the center of the battle. 

Dangerous, daring, resilient, faithful…Stronger.
