"True strength does not come out of bravado. Until we are broken, our life will be self-centered, self-reliant; our strength will be our own. 
So long as you think you are really something in and of yourself, what will you need God for?
 I don't trust a man who hasn't suffered; I don't let a man get close to me who hasn't faced his wound. 
Think of the posers you know—are they the kind of man you would call at 2:00 A.M.,
 when life is collapsing around you? Not me. I don't want clichés; I want deep, soulful truth, and that only comes when a man has walked the road I've been talking about."
John Eldredge, Wild at Heart Revised and Updated: Discovering the Secret of a Man's Soul


Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong. Let all that you do be done in love.
1 Corinthians 16:13-14 (ESV)


There are multiple opportunities for men to get connected with other like-minded men after Christ.
 We venture to build each other up to live authentic lives of faith and to "sharpen" one another in word,
encouragement, support, and accountability.
 We invite all men to come to be a part of and experience God together. "Iron sharpens iron, and one man sharpens another."
