Thanks to Bishop Stika and all the men who attend Men's Night Out last pm.
Another great evening of food, fun, fellowship and faith.
Bishop Stika told great stories about his life, his influences, how he became elected Bishop of Knoxville and his vision for the future of the diocese. It was a great evening and I would encourage everyone if they have the opportunity in the future to hear the Bishop speak, to do so.
I cannot re-cap all who said, or come close to his delivery so I won't try. But, I will share a very important message that he shared with us as fathers and men. He spoke about St. Joseph and the incredibly simple life that he led. He was nothing fancy, wasn't flashy, didn't speak alot, and we don't even now how he died. However, what we do know, is that he lived simply, trusted God and made loving his wife and his child the focus of his life. The Bishop encouraged us to do the same. Simply have faith, trust God and love your wife and children.
Is that your center? Is that your focus? If it was, how would your choices in this life change?
