MOA is all about helping Men of God in Ministry keep their "Zero" on Jesus.  Through this ministry, we will be offering Outdoor ministry outings, activities and retreats for Pastors, and full and part-time (male) ministry staff, designed to help keep you on target in that which God has called you to do, to be, and to become.

Our 1st Annual MOA Foundation Fall Clay Shoot, is on 10/11/2015 from 3:30-6pm at Lynbrooke Sporting Clays (1419 SW 120th, Augusta, KS).  The cost is only $50 per shooter and includes targets and shells.  All you will need to bring is a shotgun and eye and ear protection.  We will also be offering door prize drawings, and a long-bird shoot-off at the end of the day for a nice prize as well. You do not need to be an experienced shooter to take part.

A Gun-Dog's 23rd Psalm

I did a funeral a while back for an awesome man who was a dog trainer, a dog lover, a hunter and an outdoorsman.  In preparation for his funeral the Lord led me to re-work the 23rd Psalm... from the eyes of a hunting dog... Here is my best effort...

"My Master is my provider,

I trust Him to give me everything I need.

I lie down, and I rise up at the sound of His voice. He teaches me to seek, and to point the quail and the pheasant hidden in the fields, the meadows, and the hedgerows, and along the creeks where we venture.

My soul is most alive when He leads me along the well-worn paths that take us to all of our favorite places, and my heart soars at the rush of the wings as the birds rise from my point. Hope bursts from my chest at the sound of his shot, and it is for His Names sake that I proudly retrieve the birds that are downed and place them into His hands.

Even when I grow fearful, or weary, holding point in dense cover, seeing Him in my memory, His shotgun in hand, remembering the sounds of his approach through the grass, I am comforted, and I am strengthened, knowing that my Master will find me again, no matter where I may be.

Water, food, a warm bed, all this… He prepares for me, and He speaks my praises in the presence of lesser dogs and of their Masters. I am certain he is proud of me as he pats my head and says “Good boy…”

Great memories, of the best of times, that only a Gun Dog can know, will be treasured in my heart… and those memories will follow me all the days of my life, knowing that, in my Master’s Soul… I will dwell forever and ever. And He… by me… will never be forgotten."
