KEYNOTE SPEAKER
Scott Bloyer grew up playing football and fighting his way through high school. At 21 years of age he came home from a bar fight to his mother telling him he was going to end up dead or in jail if he didn’t give his life to Jesus. He got down on his knees and said “If God you are real, I can’t do this anymore on my own.”
Scott later became a Youth Pastor for 17 years. In 2008 God called him to start a church. After a lot of prayer and God moving in Scott’s family they chose to move back to the neighborhood where he grew up and start Elevation Christian Church on October 10, 2010.
While developing the community that would become Elevation, Scott trained fighters how to wrestle and compete in MMA. Through this job Scott has been invited to be a part of local fighting events and has work with some of the top MMA and UFC fighters in the world. Several have started a relationship with Jesus and attended Elevation.
Scott has a passion to see men come to know Jesus and lead in the local church, and to see churches planted all over the world.
Scott has been married to his best friend Michelle for 27 years and loves being father and father in-law to Caleb and Danielle (daughter), Tyler (his son), and Austin and Morgan (daughter). He is soon to be a grandpa and he is not quite sure what to do with that. If he isn’t working, you can find him at the gym, coaching football or going on dates with his wife.
Colonel Justin R. Walrath is the Commander, 153d Airlift Wing, Wyoming Air National Guard. The Wing is equipped with eight C-130H aircraft and consists of more than 1200 personnel. Colonel Walrath was born and raised in Thermopolis Wy. He spent 10 years on active duty before joining the Wyoming Air National Guard in 2000. On active duty he served as a Maintenance Officer and a KC-135 Pilot. Currently in the Air Guard he flies the C-130.
Colonel Walrath has served nine combat deployments and has more than 1,000 combat hours in support of Allied Force (Kosovo), Operation Enduring Freedom (Afghanistan) and Operation Iraqi Freedom. He graduated from the United States Air Force Academy with a Bachelor of Science in 1991. He also was awarded a Master of Science, Aeronautical Science Technology, from Embry-Riddle Aeronautical University, Daytona Beach, FL. Most importantly he accepted Christ as his savior in the sixth grade and has been led willingly and unwillingly ever since. He has belonged to Methodist, Baptist and Lutheran churches. He currently attends Day Spring Christian Church in Windsor CO, where he teaches adult bible study.

WHO ARE WE?God’s Mighty Men came from the recognition that throughout our region men need the support of other brothers in Christ. “What if,” we asked, “God would start a ministry in which making disciples and building unity across denominations was the priority?” God’s Mighty Men was founded in 2009 with the goal of providing a Christ-centered nondenominational forum connecting and reaching out to the men of the Front Range. We understood that Christ has a plan and special purpose for each of us. The team started work and the first GMM Conference was held at Little America in March of 2010.
The conference outline is simple: bring men together, encourage them in their faith, then send them back to their families and churches with a renewed vision of God’s directing role in their lives. In the first century, Jesus took men who were fishermen, tax collectors, soldiers and outcasts and empowered them to live out God’s plan in all of life. We are confident in his promise to do the same for us today. We’ve watched God move in amazing ways to bring together the Christian men, sponsors and other resources needed to hold our annual conferences that bless the participants, all our churches, and our various communities across the Front Range. Families, churches, and society desperately need men who embrace all that God created us to be. During this year’s program we’re being encouraged to “CRASH THE DIVIDE”: any barrier that deters men in the body of Christ from walking together in Jesus’ will. We are men seeking UNITY across various denominations, cultures, races, ages, and other differences on the common ground of our faith in Jesus Christ.
(Ephesians 4:13 -16, ESV)… until we all attain to the unity of the faith and of the knowledge of the Son of God, to mature manhood, to the measure of the stature of the fullness of Christ, so that we may no longer be children, tossed to and fro by the waves and carried about by every wind of doctrine, by human cunning, by craftiness in deceitful schemes. Rather, speaking the truth in love, we are to grow up in every way into him who is the head, into Christ, from whom the whole body, joined and held together by every joint with which it is equipped, when each part is working properly, makes the body grow so that it builds itself up in love.
As God’s Mighty Men, let us boldly answer the call!

If you haven’t attended a GMM Conference before, you are in for a treat. Consider this your sincere invitation to enjoy an engaging 5 hours of Christ-filled uplifting spiritual entertainment.
For Christian men, these are times of both unique challenge and powerful opportunity to become the men Christ has asked us to be. This year’s GMM Conference will feature keynote speaker Scott Bloyer. Scott brings a spirit-filled message of hope and sound biblical principles. Scott is a recognized Christian speaker and one of the most effective communicators for the Christian faith today. He is authentic, relevant and is centered on solid biblical principles. You will walk away knowing more and feeling inspired.
Also, at this year’s conference we hope to challenge men to consider their role in “God’s Plan”. Crashing the Divide challenges men to break down the barriers that often separate us from relationships that would otherwise provide unity in the community of Jesus Christ. God has called men to be role models and leaders in our homes, churches and communities. We hope to challenge and encourage men to pursue a Christ filled life.
We believe this year’s conference will fulfill the theme of
CRASHING THE DIVIDESeeking Unity
Again, this year the ever popular “Pastor Blast” is back with 3 minutes of pastors expressing what God has placed on their heart from a number of local and regional pastors.
Our 2019 GMM Conference is like a high intensity faith work-out. A time of teaching, sharing and Crashing the Divide with other Christian men. We hope you will gain a clear gospel-filled strategy that gets to the heart of the issues. It’s a great opportunity to enjoy a spiritual thought-provoking program that will truly help deepen your faith.
We hope you enjoy our efforts to bring a program that will truly bless you in your walk with Christ.
Sincerely,
Jim Schamerhorn
GMM President

SPRAY FOAM
westerndrywall.net
Love is patient, love is kind. It does not envy, it does not boast, it is not
proud.It does not dishonor others, it is not self-seeking, it is not easily
angered, it keeps no record of wrongs. Love does not delight in evil but
rejoices with the truth. It always protects, always trusts, always hopes,
always perseveres.
Love never fails. But where there are prophecies, they will cease; where
there are tongues, they will be stilled; where there is knowledge, it will
pass away. For we know in part and we prophesy in part, but when
completeness comes, what is in part disappears. When I was a child, I
talked like a child, I thought like a child, I reasoned like a child. When
I became a man, I put the ways of childhoodh behind me. For now we
see only a refl ection as in a mirror; then we shall see face to face. Now I
know in part; then I shall know fully, even as I am fully known.
1 Corinthians 13:4–12
