WELCOME TO RANGERS OF CHRIST

Rangers of Christ has been developing godly leaders by training them to cultivate 12 simple Biblical characteristics. To date, ROC meetings have welcomed well over a thousand Christian men from all walks of life, developed hundreds of godly leaders and by God’s grace will continue to do so, thereby fulfilling ROC’s purpose.

ABOUT

Eric Lawrence, a disciple of Jesus Christ, while participating in different area of ministry in his Church recognized several shortcomings in Christian men, men who professed to be living Christian lives but displayed little fruit. In the early part of 2002, God placed a desire in Eric’s heart to develop a group in which men could come and be a part of a group in which men would not just come to participate in discussions to further acquire head knowledge but instead, develop a group in which men could gather and be challenged to live out a fulfilling, Spirit led life, which in turn would naturally develop them into godly leaders. In 2004 Eric Lawrence held the first ROC meeting, there were four men in attendance.

Since its inception, Rangers Of Christ (ROC) has been developing godly leaders by training them to cultivate 12 simple Biblical characteristics. To date, ROC meetings have welcomed well over a thousand Christian men from all walks of life, developed hundreds of godly leaders and by God’s grace will continue to do so, thereby fulfilling ROC’s purpose.

Purpose – “To build Christian men into committed followers of Jesus Christ and strong Godly leaders.”

Mission — “To make disciples and care for widows and orphans.”

Vision — “A stronger Body of Christ with godly families committed to fulfilling the Great Commandment and the Great Commission”

God has divinely appointed adult Christian males to be the foundation on which His people stand, His people being the Church. The Body of Christ has become weak and it has compromised its effectiveness. One reason is that the mechanism of stability, strength and leadership that God divinely placed in our world is in poor condition. For various reasons, the adult Christian male is failing to realize his divine purpose and fulfill his leadership role in this world. ROC has developed more than a hundred men who have gone on to impact their communities by becoming the leaders God designed them to be!
