Steadfast Communion
This session will introduce men to the relentless love of God that pursues us no matter where they’ve been or what they’ve done. When they hear words like relationship, intimacy, and communion, some men might think these are less than masculine qualities. The reality is that God’s steadfast love is a rock. It is immovable. It is unchanging. It does not waver. He loves us on our worst day, and he loves us on our best day. Men need to know and experience that kind of love. This will be an essential session to introduce men who do not have a relationship with Christ or men who think they are too far from His love to the relentless, unchanging, and steadfast love of the Lord.
Steadfast Commitments
This session will remind men of the importance of being faithful in our commitments. Relationships can be seen as disposable or optional when inconvenient, incomplete, or insufficient to meet “my needs.” Christ models a faithful love for us that should translate to how we love those we are in a relationship with, starting with those closest to us. Our world needs to see in us a commitment to our marriages, families, and friends that looks like Christ’s love for His church. Men don’t have to be another statistic; there is help, healing, and hope for those struggling with their commitments.
Steadfast Consistency
This session will tackle the importance of “old-fashioned” integrity and holiness. These might not be popular topics today, but maybe they are needed more than ever. David prayed this prayer: “May integrity and honesty protect me, for I put my hope in you.” (Psalm 25:21, NLT). The Apostle Paul made this determination: “So I run with purpose in every step.” (1Corithians 9:26, NLT). Paul reminds us that we face an enemy of our souls but through God’s power we can stand strong. Men need to reclaim and relentlessly pursue that type of intentionality and integrity. This consistency must permeate every aspect of our lives: from thoughts to our actions, from our emotions to our speech, from relationships to our recreation, and from our online habits to our offline desires. This consistency creates healthy boundaries, breaks free from addictive behaviour, and lives in Christ's freedom.
Steadfast Calling
This session will remind men of the importance of being committed to “the work of the Lord.” The Christian life is not a spectator sport. It needs full participation. From serving in the local church or being engaged in their local community, men need to step up and step in. But there is also a calling to men to step into the Great Commission. Our vision is to see “every man become, grow, and live as disciples of Jesus” – that’s not just for every man in the church, but for every man in the community. Men can be bold in their faith and confident in their calling to share the love and grace of Jesus.
