Welcome

The Sons of Thunder is a Christian band and part of a larger, growing group of average guys who have decided to take a stand for Christ and work on becoming better husbands and fathers - yes, even sons.

The Sons of Thunder was hatched about 5 years ago. This group often leads/joins a larger group of men in study and prayer and seeks to serve the wider community.

Based in Bridgewater, Nova Scotia, SOT has been known to tackle a range of projects - everything from home maintenance chores to helping move immigrant families. In 2008, the group did some missions work in NYC serving, playing and singing at the Bowery Mission. As is often the case, those who went to 'minister' were 'ministered to'. When the praises go up...the blessings come down!

If you live on the South Shore of Nova Scotia, look us up at Bridgewater Baptist Church. And feel free to invite us to lead or participate in your event. We love road trips! Rock on!

Power of Prayer

Just a short post today.

I just found out I passed my Canadian Securities Exam and it was one of the hardest things I have ever had to do.  The failure rate for this course is 70%.
The day before I wrote the exam I asked a number of men (the large Sons of Thunder) if they would pray for me during my exam.  Now I'll be honest, I didn't pass with flying colours.  In fact, it was close but it was a pass, which is a high enough mark (it's not 50%).  I'm telling you this to make a very important point though.  I left the exam feeling like there was little doubt I wouldn't pass.  Some of that was because of the fact I studied of course but a lot of that was because I knew God would take care of me.  I knew if there were people also asking God to help me, I would be taken care of.  There was that confidence I have mentioned before.  My guys have got my back and so does the Lord.  The path I am now on is the path God wants me on and because of that, because I know that, I am in good hands and He will help me the whole way through.  
If you need anything, any help, we are all here to pray for you and that is powerful.
