Karate for Christ
Leader: Kevin Wagner - 501.941.2337

 Statement of Faith:

We believe in the Trinity of God, the Virgin Birth, the inspired and preserved Word of God (Ps. 12:6-7), and It rightly divided (2 Tim. 2:15) that Jesus is God manifest in the flesh, and that He died on the Cross, was buried, and rose again on the third day, as according to Scripture. We are saved by grace through faith, not of works. Our calling is to equip the Christian Martial Artisit to reach out to the lost. We refer theological and counseling issues back to the local church pastors, since our calling is to come alongside them, to win the lost, and to encourage believers to get into fellowship with a local church.


Our Mission:

To proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ. To reach the lost, mature the saints, serve our communities, and to touch the lives of "at risk youth" and families in need. To do these things throughout the world via the medium, lessons, and discipline of martial arts. To teach the best and most effective martial art we know. To serve God, minister to others, and teach the children well.

This is a tremendous ministry that children as well as their parents can participate in.  Not meant as a violent martial arts program, their main motto is "I don't want to fight".  They teach how to ward off attackers - more of a self defense teaching type class.  The difference in this and regular karate is it teaches that there is only one Master and He is God.  At the beginning and end of each class they gather in a circle on their knees and have a time of prayer.  To advance to a belt color, along with knowing the karate moves, you must memorize a certain Bible verse.  For adults in the class, they teach a different type of karate called Bujutsu with more advanced moves.  Adults have to memorize verses as well but also have other steps to complete in order to advance.

There is no cost for the class but a love offering is accepted at a going rate of $10 per month, per family.  Uniforms are not required but cost about $20, if interested.  Classes meet each Thursday at 7:00 p.m. at Briarwood Baptist Church, Cabot
