THE  PLEDGE

I SOLEMNLY PLEDGE BEFORE GOD TO STAND COURAGEOUS AS A MAN.

AS THE DEFENDER, I pledge to protect my loved ones, and if necessary, lay down my life for my wife and my family as Jesus Christ did for me. I will guard my home from destructive and sinful influences. I pledge to confront evil, pursue justice, and defend the weak and defenseless when attacked, including the unborn.


AS THE PROVIDER, I pledge to work as God gives me strength and provide for the basic needs of my family. I will demonstrate my love by meeting their needs before my own. I will honor God by giving to his work and serving those in need. I will also provide direction, values, and a sense of identity for those in my charge.


AS THE BATTLE BUDDY, I pledge to develop a bond with another trustworthy, God-fearing man for prayer, encouragement, and accountability. I will also seek out a younger man who needs to be mentored and make a significant investment in his life. I promise to maintain communication with these men despite any bad decisions or distance because I keep my commitments.


AS THE INSTRUCTOR, I pledge to teach our family about our own history. I will also instruct them about our godly heritage as Americans as the reason for patriotism and sacrifice. I will instill in the minds of my sons what it means to be masculine as God made us. I will train those in my care to honor authority, live responsibly and fear God so as to leave a godly legacy.


AS THE CHAPLAIN, I pledge to seek God in prayer, obey His Word, do His will, and be faithful to His church and encourage the same in my family. I will provide God’s vision for my family and help them see what is happening through a biblical worldview. I will teach them to love God with all of their hearts, all of their minds, and all of their strength and will bless my children as the spiritual leader of my home. As for me and my house, we will serve the LORD! (Joshua 24:15)


I PLEDGE TO STAND COURAGEOUS FOR GOD’S GLORY FOR AS LONG AS I LIVE.


 SO HELP ME GOD!
