See unsub information at end.] BZeal Weekly 2007 April 9 ENCOUNTER CONSIDERS THE GOD WHO EQUIPS by J. Randal Matheny The National Christian Men's Encounter highlighted the theme "The God Who Equips" April 7-8 at the Mt. of Olives Christian Camp, outside of Sao Paulo. Some 412 men from across the country participated. This year's organizers invited 12 speakers to give 20- minute messages. Traditionally, the event has 6-8 lessons of 40 minutes duration. This was my second message for this event. I also spoke last year. My sermon for this theme was "God Equips the Called," based on the call of Elisha. The text was given me by the organizers. The congregations in the city of Campo Grande, Mato Grosso state, organized this year's event. A different congregation coordenates the program each year.
