Find the Measure of the Gift of Christ in You. God has placed His unique grace and purpose in each of our lives. Ephesians 4:7 (KJV) says that "unto every one of us is given grace according to the measure of the gift of Christ." God’s grace on your life is divinely tailored—no one else has the same gift. Your value and purpose are not defined by titles, education, economic status, or the opinions of others, but by the measure of God’s gift within you.

I had to overcome challenges in my past, like growing up without guidance, recognition, or family support, but I discovered the grace of God and it transformed my life. Despite my background, I found my calling by crying out to God and experiencing His Shekinah glory in a real way. God sees potential in us, even when others don’t.

Stop measuring yourself by worldly standards and seek God in prayer to find the measure of the gift of Christ in your life. Then live fully in that grace. Don’t waste a single day. Fulfill any divine assignment that remains unfinished. Whether it’s becoming a governor, or a bishop who inspires others, or simply a godly person walking in faith, God’s grace equips you to accomplish what He has called you to do. Regardless of your past or present circumstances, if you’re still breathing, God has a purpose for your life.

Rod Holloman Joins the Fellowship of Finishers After Completing Bishop Wellington Boone’s 30-Day Challenge

Mount Olivet Church, Richmond, VA – August 17, 2025 (pastored by FOIC Bishop Darryl Husband).

In a heartfelt and inspiring interview, Bishop Wellington Boone celebrated Rod Holloman, whom he knew from Manna Christian Fellowship in Richmond, Virginia, for completing the 30-day challenge outlined in Bishop Boone’s self-accountability journal, My Journey with God. Holloman’s dedication to finishing the challenge earned him a place in the exclusive “Fellowship of Finishers,” a recognition for those who complete the journal’s rigorous daily exercises without missing a single day.

The interview highlighted Holloman’s journey of discipline, faith, and personal growth. Bishop Boone, who authored My Journey with God, praised Holloman for his commitment and signed his certificate of completion during the event.

A Challenge Turned Delight

When asked about the difficulty of the challenge, Holloman admitted, “It was a challenge, and it became a delight.” He shared how he began the journey on August 1, waking up at 5:00 AM each day to complete the journal’s exercises. The book’s strict rule—no skipped days, or you must start over—kept him accountable.

“It’s not just a read-through; it’s a work-through book,” Bishop Boone confirmed.

The journal required Holloman to document every hour of his day, pray, create a priority prayer list, and reflect on his actions. “It’s personal and private accountability,” Bishop Boone noted, emphasizing the transformative power of self-judgment and discipline.

A Journey of Faith and Witnessing

Holloman shared a particularly moving experience from Day 18 of the challenge. While at a gas station, he encountered a man named Rob, who was struggling with homelessness. Instead of focusing on the man’s immediate circumstances, Holloman encouraged him to seek God and begin each day in prayer. “You could just see the emotions,” Holloman said, reflecting on the impact of their conversation. “I’m excited for what God is going to do in Rob’s life.”

The challenge also included an all-night prayer session, which Holloman described as both difficult and rewarding. “My spirit was willing, but my flesh was a little weak,” he admitted with a smile. Despite the struggle, he found the experience deeply enriching, following the example of Jesus, who often prayed through the night.

A Blessing and a New Beginning

The interview concluded with a powerful moment of prayer and blessing. Bishop Boone spoke over Holloman’s life, declaring, “What you put in you during these 30 days, God is going to use for His glory.” Boone anointed Holloman with a new sense of purpose, encouraging him to rise above past failures and embrace his calling.

Holloman’s journey serves as an inspiration to others, and Bishop Boone issued a challenge to readers everywhere: “Get the book, take the 30-day challenge, and join the Fellowship of Finishers.” The book, which includes a certificate of completion, is designed to help individuals grow in faith, discipline, and accountability.

A Call to Action

For those seeking a deeper connection with God and a structured path to self-improvement, My Journey with God offers a transformative experience. As Holloman’s story demonstrates, the challenge is not just about finishing a book—it’s about becoming the person God has called you to be. Will you take the challenge and join the Fellowship of Finishers?

Calling Men to Sacred Duty. Men, it’s time to fulfill your sacred duty as a leader in the body of Christ. This is not the time for complacency. If men have ever been needed to represent the body of Christ on the earth, that time is now. Look at what's happening in the world from God's perspective. Then you will understand why you are alive to fulfill divine purpose. Guard your heart. Make your behavior match Heaven. Men with no character have no calling. They are not qualified for the next world. No character, no calling. 

Strong Christian men live with eternity in view because life is not only about the natural but also about the spiritual. Every day they are preparing themselves and others for the next world.

When you are born again, you receive eternal life, and it is a comprehensive experience. It is the beginning of "everlasting living" where you daily consider your place, purpose, and future legacy in the next world.

Strong Christian men embrace their roles as spiritual leaders, especially in prayer. They declare that their prayers have the power to move heaven and bring transformation to those around them. Family restoration comes when Christian men become patriarchs of their households, leading their families and future generations to God. One man who knows God can bring light and redemption to entire family lines, even in the face of past darkness.

Everlasting living is characterized by forgiveness, unity in marriage, and the restoration of respect from rebellious children who return to their families and their faith.

This is a call to action for men to rise up, embrace their God-given authority, and stay on fire for Christ, unshaken by the world’s challenges to the eternal truths they have received from God. It’s a reminder that our lives, prayers, and godly leadership produce a legacy that will affect the generations to come.

God Grants Authority When He Sees Self-Government.

The key to walking in God’s authority and eternal power lies in what you do when no one is watching—your inner life and self-discipline. Jesus demonstrated this through His life, resisting temptation and fully surrendering to God, setting the ultimate example for us.

The disciples, who gave up everything to follow Jesus, were entrusted with His authority after His resurrection. This authority isn’t just for this world but for the world to come. It’s not about temporary results like healing or deliverance but about eternal purpose and promotability in God’s kingdom.

Jesus delegated "exousia" (authority) to His disciples, enabling them to operate in the powers of the world to come while still on earth. He challenges us to live like that—unmoved by earthly desires, practicing self-government, and preparing now for our eternal assignment in God’s kingdom.

Train to Be a Spiritual Force: Answer the Call.

Christian men, the time has come to rise above mediocrity and embrace the extraordinary purpose God has placed within you. You are not average. You are not ordinary. You are uniquely gifted by God to be a spiritual force on this earth—a force that not only stands against the darkness but also brings light, healing, and hope to those in need.

This is not a call for half-hearted devotion. It’s a call to go all in. To seek God with everything you have. To cry out to Him, to spend time alone in His presence, and to plead for His guidance and power. Jesus set the pattern for us—He gave His life for the salvation of others, and now He calls us to do the same. Not just in word, but in action. Not just in strength, but in kindness and sensitivity to the spiritual struggles of those around us.

Why should an athlete give more to a fleeting game than you give to the eternal Kingdom? Why should the world’s pursuits demand more commitment than your devotion to God? This is your moment to step into your divine assignment. To be a man who is fully submitted, fully committed, and fully alive in Christ.

The world is crying out for men who will stand in the gap, who will live with eternal values, and who will bring the love and truth of God to a broken world. Will you be that man? Will you train to be a spiritual force that changes lives, families, and communities?

The cross is where your will and God’s will cross. Step into that place. Seek Him diligently. Live with purpose. And become the man God created you to be—a spiritual force for good, for love, and for His glory.

The question is not why you? The question is why not you? The time is now. The call is clear. Will you answer?

Man's Sacred Duty.

Transformed to Be Trusted. Jesus brought to the Earth a message not only about being born again but also about being transformed into someone whom God could trust. It is of vital importance to God that you are not a counterfeit or phony in your faith. The vitality of your faith requires a real relationship with Him. His issue is not education but transformation—aligning your heart with God’s will. You are made to live forever because there's something God has given to you now that's worth something forever. That's something that you have to discover.

You don't want one single thought in your mind that is a wasted thought that God can’t endorse in the next world. You were made to live forever so God gave you something that will be worth something forever. Realize your spiritual destiny at an accelerated pace because you will be populating the heavens and affecting the earth with your God-ordained purpose.

Talking to Holy Ghost – My Friend

Do you talk to Holy Ghost as your Friend? Talking to Him, have you said, "Holy Spirit, I know You were sent here to live in the home of my heart, but I've been focused on so many other things that I haven't been a reliable friend to You. I haven't asked you to reveal the Son and show me His face. I haven't asked You, 'What are Your priorities for me today?' and expected an answer. I don't necessarily know Your voice the same way that I know the voice of my natural best friend."
