As before, the newsletter and profession-relevant/life-relevant Bible study goes out each week via email and is re-posted on our social media pages as well. However, I always post it here as well (resources, archives, etc.). Here then is A Cop's Courageous Marriage. Pass it on!

A Cop's Marriage
The focus of this week's Centurion Law Enforcement Ministry/FCPO newsletter and devotional/Bible study is marriage and law enforcement marriages in particular. I've included a plethora of resources in both the newsletter and here on our website ("eyes left/scroll down"). Just click on "A Cop's Marriage."
Speaking of, Rick and Kristi Neace of Badge of Hope Ministries (link in my newsletter and here on this site) are hosting their 2nd Annual "Spouse Academy" in Chattanooga, TN this weekend!
Finally, I've moved the Colorado-area law enforcement minsitry meeting schedules to their own space -- also on the left side of this site.
Let's make an extra effort to serve and protect our spouses and marriages today (gents -- we are to "pastor" our wives and families).

Cops Under Conviction ("Convicted by Conscience")
This week's Centurion Law Enforcement Ministry/FCPO newsletter and devotional has gone out to our many worldwide subscribers but here it is again. Take the time to read not only the announcements and news but also the recap of Chaplain Jim Wattles' Bible study from last week. Click on Cops Under Conviction.
Secondly, I continue to be disturbed by an almost constant barrage of possibly well-intended but dangerous (as in eternal consequences) posts that falsely suggest that we (LEOs, first responders, military, etc.) can somehow "earn" a free-ride into heaven or out of hell by our service. Rest assured, we canNOT "badge" our way into God's house or out of our otherwise just destination (hell)! Rather, it is ONLY by repenting of our sin and entering into a life-saving/life-changing personal relationship with God in Christ that we can be saved. If you doubt that, then your argument is with God alone. See the links on the left side of this website under "Know God (AKA True Officer Safety)?"
Finally, I ask for your prayers for all those still dealing with the fallout from the Aurora theater shooting that occurred 1 year ago this weekend. Many wounds still not healed. Moreover, in speaking at a COPS (Concerns for Police Survivors) event this weekend at the Colorado Law Enforcement Memorial, that point was further driven home. Let's have a Code 3 sense of urgency in sharing Christ with our own.
Church Security and Threat Conference!
Calvary Chapel Albuqueque will be hosting a Church Security and Threat Training Conference on July 23rd from 9 AM - 5 PM. Retired Albuquerque PD detective and current Calvary ABQ Dir. of Security Vince Harrison, a leading expert on church safety and security issues, will be a one of the instructors along with Dr. Larry Allen and Gil Baca, Jr.. They will be covering such topics as active shooter and knife attacks, the security role of ushers and greeters, CCW liability issues, and more. Pastors, ministry leaders, ushers, security, police and fire personnel are encouraged to attend. To register and obtain complete conference information, email Vince at vinceharrison@comcast.net or call Rachael Chance at 505-974-1730.
Stay safe -- but BOLD in Christ.
