#edwardwright #men #gcc #greatercommunity ‪@GCCExperience‬ #cogic #believers Welcome, Wednesday Noon Day Talk /Checkin Men gather virtually to share, converse, encourage and overall community. Meeting summary Quick recap The men's ministry meeting focused on spiritual growth and accountability, with participants discussing Romans 2 and 1 Corinthians 2, emphasizing the importance of walking in the Spirit rather than judgment. Brothers shared personal experiences about discernment, marriage, and spiritual maturity, with Emerson and Will highlighting the need to maintain a consistent spiritual presence rather than an on-and-off relationship with the Holy Spirit. The group explored how spiritual discernment helps prevent self-righteous judgment and discussed the role of men as spiritual leaders in their homes. The conversation ended with a prayer led by Emerson, emphasizing gratitude for the indwelling presence of the Holy Spirit and the kingdom's transformative power. Next steps Edward: Survey the group (via GroupMe) to determine if the upcoming third Friday meeting should be virtual or in person. Edward: Set up a live (shared/accessible) prayer list or prayer request form (e.g., Google Doc) for the men's ministry so brothers can add and track prayer requests. Summary Men's Ministry Audio Check-In Edward and Elder Henry engaged in a brief audio check before starting the meeting. They confirmed that Elder Henry could now hear Edward. The meeting was scheduled for February 18th, 2026, as a mid-week check-in for the men's ministry at Greater Community Church of God in Christ. Elder Mark Henry was present and greeted the attendees. Church Announcements and Health Updates The meeting began with Elder Henry joining from Alabama and a prayer for the group. Edward shared several announcements, including the passing of Reverend Jesse Jackson Senior, details about the upcoming third Friday meeting (which will be surveyed for format), pre-orders for Fourth Sunday barbecue dinners, and an interest meeting for the AIM convention after Sunday services. Coach EJ shared that he's been experiencing migraines and other health issues, and the group prayed for his healing and wellness. Prayer System and Faith Study The group discussed creating a live prayer request system, potentially using a Google Doc, to allow members to add prayer needs at any time. They agreed this would enable continuous prayer support rather than waiting for group meetings. The meeting then focused on a faith focus study from Romans 2:1-11, which explored themes of judgment, kindness, and the importance of seeking good over evil, with emphasis on God's fairness in rewarding actions. Spiritual Judgment and Identity The group discussed Romans 2:1-11, focusing on the theme that God shows no favoritism and judges all according to their works. They explored how spiritual judgment differs from natural condemnation, with Emerson emphasizing that true spiritual judgment comes from being led by the Holy Spirit rather than personal opinions. The discussion concluded with agreement that as kingdom citizens, their identity should be in Christ, and the Holy Spirit's role is to remind them of their true identity rather than condemn them for failures. Spiritual Guidance and Discernment The group discussed the importance of walking in the Spirit and living according to spiritual discernment rather than fleshly desires. Emerson emphasized that being spiritual means maintaining a fixed position in the Spirit regardless of circumstances, while Will shared personal experiences about how the Holy Spirit guided him to forgive and reconcile with his wife. The discussion concluded with a prayer led by Emerson, where they thanked God for the new covenant and His presence within them, expressing their desire to further His kingdom on earth.
