i think this is how it is supposed to be...

"I was expecting a Bible study. Instead, I found safety to expose pain and shame, encouragement into healing engagement with Jesus Christ, and a participation with Jesus in my own life and in the lives of others." -Rich

"I cannot begin to capture all that 4SP has added to my life. You have awakened me to so many deep truths about Jesus Christ, our Father God, and the Holy Spirit. Your wisdom and authentic heart for God has blessed me and so many others." - Paul

“Just wanted to say it was great being with you Saturday morning. I got the 10 pack of Wild at Heart. I've been giving them to guys at work and two more will go as gifts in TX. This should be a bit of a different Christmas for me this year as I have more irons in the fire. I just pray I don't scare the two guys I'm giving the book to. But hey, I'm just the messenger.

I'm moving forward in so many areas, and even though I lose a battle every now and then I have my God there to pick me up and take the next beachhead. Plus, I now know a bunch of awesome knuckleheads to confide in and get encouragement from... and I be there for them, too! All of this LIFE I never knew before BANDO. This community is in my heart as dear friends and brothers in the fight. I pray God continues to use 4SP in reaching out to men to bring their hearts alive in Jesus to experience more abundant life! I love you man,... more than you will ever know this side of heaven!”

“It was so good to be at Bando! There wasn’t any place I’d rather be. I thank you from the depths of my soul for heading up and building this ministry. I don’t know where I would be without you, the guys and the journey I am on to be more Christ-like.

I’ll share with you the entire story when we see each other. But my inner strength through God came through in BANDO, connecting with a special group of men who shared struggles with me yet supporting me in the middle of mine. This is such a rare band of knuckleheads.” – Bob

“Thank you for leading the charge for men to find healing and freedom through Christ. Thank you for saying YES to the call Of God. He is putting your YES on the map of His Kingdom. It is such a privilege to learn and grow under your spiritual covering and leadership. Hope you have an awesome day and highly blessed year. I love you.” - Parker

“Hey Buz! I need to tell you the WAH retreat was the best one so far, of any men’s retreat I’ve attended, ever! The weekend was so directed by the Spirit the entire time, simply on fire🔥! Several of the new guys told me they loved it & wanted to join Bando, & a few even want to lead the 8-wk follow-up! The whole wknd, a grand slam home run!! Don’t let the enemy steal this major moment of renewal & celebration from you. 4Streams is launching our next phase, rising to the next level, exploding w/the Holy Spirit! God Bless you, 😊🙏”. – Jim

“What’s up Buz! Man, Have I got a testimonial for u! The Whole Man is helping to bring me and my siblings closer together. We had a long deep talk over the thanksgiving break about our childhood and how things have affected us now. Everyone was telling their story. I used a story that I wrote out during the retreat and they were able to connect with me better because of it (one of my sisters started out with almost the exact same story). Also was able to listen without trying to fix things, and guide the conversation. I just wanted to share with u because I felt super prepared for this conversation because of whole man. It was supernatural the timing of this, as we’ve never done anything like this before. I’m very thankful for the work God is doing through this ministry”! – Doug

“When we met in the hallway at the end of Bando, I could not express what I was feeling; that sense of deep love. Jesus was loving me and I could feel it. I am so thankful that I met you and your ministry. It has enabled me to better understand my life. I can see how my father’s beating turned me into nitroglycerin making a young boy into an angry student pilot. Finally, a vicious contractor/pilot. My brother had the same reaction, turning his bitterness into a violent military career with a shattered heart. I did not see this parallel between my brother until Saturday AM. I was shocked that it took me 60 years to see this. I am going to concentrate on Bando and C3G to take me through my past. Thank you for reading this today.“ - Carl
