What we’re about
How we do discipleship
We don’t hide what we’re about. Here’s how we walk with men toward Jesus.
Firstly, our goal is to be a bridge to Jesus. Many of our events are open to everyone if these types of activities are your thing. We don’t try to hide what we’re about, but not everything will include a 3 hour bible study or worship set.
We believe discipleship only truly happens between a trusted friendship. So our first order of business is to develop leaders who already have committed to a life of following Jesus. When a guy who is unsure what he believes about Jesus begins to consistently attend our events we have a simple three phase discipleship journey.
Phase 1: Intrigue
We don’t exist to twist a man’s arm into following Jesus. We create space for him to express that he is interested in learning more about Jesus.
Phase 2: Investigate
We encourage men to investigate the person of Jesus. To attend Rest & Recovery nights (our more formal bible study nights with cold plunging and saunas). We will pair him with a leader he has begun to build a bond with. And the journey of going through the gospels and beyond will begin.
Phase 3: Invitation
This is not a moment of manipulation…But rather, once on the journey of investigation they feel like they are starting to think that there is more to Jesus than him being human and that maybe God’s spirit is acting within the world…we encourage them to invite God into an opportunity to allow that same spirit to transform their life.
We hold strong to the belief that only the Spirit is what produces fruit. The journey looks different for each man, and we choose to walk patiently alongside God as his spirit works.
Our vision is to ensure we create opportunities for our members to participate in contributing to our local community that goes beyond just our organization, in ways that help break in the kingdom of God.
