"It costs something to be a true Christian. Let that never be forgotten. To be a mere nominal Christian, and go to church, is cheap and easy work.
But to hear Christ’s voice, follow Christ, believe in Christ, and confess Christ, requires much self-denial. It will cost us our sins, our self-righteousness, our ease, and our worldliness. All must be given up. We must fight an enemy who comes against us with thousands of followers. We must build a tower in troubled times. Our Lord Jesus Christ would have us thoroughly understand this. He bids us “count the cost.”
~ J.C. Ryle

The men of Pineland know the value of gathering and keeping one another accountable. We hold a monthly Men's Breakfast at the church on the first Saturday of every month. In addition to this, we get together throughout the month for activities together like skeet shooting, fishing, and camping.
