Mighty Men of God

Picture
As the pastor of Frontline Church in Washington D.C., Todd Phillips is leading one of the most well respected and looked to churches in the country for ministry to 20 and 30-somethings. It was Todd’s active involvement in pursuing people for the kingdom of God that led him to start a small Bible study which would eventually develop into Austin Metro, a citywide singles ministry created to reach out to those in Austin, Texas who did not have a relationship with God and those who had turned away from God and needed a first step back into the church.

In January of 1997, Todd helped start San Antonio Metro, which grew into the largest weekly event of its kind in San Antonio, reaching over 1500 singles at its largest gathering. The next year a small group of devoted attendees of San Antonio Metro approached Todd and asked him to help them start an event in their town of Kerrville to reach unchurched young people. Over the next four years, a church called The Soul Café was developed in Kerrville with Todd serving as the teaching pastor.

Since January of 2005 Todd has been serving at Frontline Church as the leading pastor. He also speaks to people of all ages at retreats, events, churches and conferences. These events include the RightNow conference, which was created by Rightnow, a division of Bluefish TV. He continually shows God’s light to non-believers while inspiring Christians to ‘get out of their box’ and remember their calling (Matthew 28:18-20).

In 2004, Todd finished writing his first book, Spiritual CPR: Reviving a Flat-lined Generation. He and wife, Julie, have three children.

Life is hard. We pray and ask God to help, but many times it seems like he’s not there. We know God can perform miracles, yet our problems often remain. Is God listening? Does God care?

In these four sessions, Todd Phillips leads a team to Russia to climb Mount Elbrus, the tallest mountain in Europe. Todd uses their perilous trek as a backdrop to explore how God works with us through the challenges in our lives.

Four video-driven sessions:
Session 1 - Leaving Comfort Behind (9 min.)
Session 2 - Flatten the Mountain (14 min.)
Session 3 - Climbing in Silence (10 min.)
Session 4 - A Better View (19 min.)

Includes a Leader’s Guide (56 pages) and Workbook (44 pages), in addition to three Video-driven sermon illustrations:


Climbing Life’s Mountains: From Mount Ararat, where God saved Noah and restarted civilization, to Mount Sinai, where God gave Moses the Ten Commandments, God has always used mountains to show himself to his people. This inspirational video illustration reminds us that we were meant to climb the mountains of life so that our faith can be made stronger, even through suffering.

Famous Failures: Sometimes we look at people who have achieved great success and think that everything must come easy for them. This powerful video illustration takes us inside some of the greatest failures of all time so we can find the true meaning of perseverance and success. If you’ve never failed, you’ve never lived.

You Can Change the World: This inspiring video illustration gives us a behind the scenes look at some of the most influential leaders of all time whose courage, tenacity, vision, and curiosity inspired a movement of lasting change. Will we choose to use our abilities and gifts to impact the world for the better?
