Men's Ministry

    Most men are under great time pressure...
They feel like they are carrying the world on their shoulders...   
     And they often get caught up in the rat race of life.

 

 

We meet monthly to encourage men, young and old, married and unmarried,

  • Build relationships with other men to encourage spiritual growth and discipleship.
  • Break out of the "go it alone" mode and becoming accountable to other men.
  • Learn how to become the spiritual leader of his family, be a useful servant in the church, and have an impact in his community.

We are presently studying "The Exemplary Husband" by Stuart Scott

"The Exemplary Husband is a biblical blueprint for the mandate God has given to husbands in the covenant of marriage to love their wives, even as Christ loved the church. Written to be a companion book to The Excellent Wife by Martha Peace, its goal is to assist husbands toward purposeful and lasting Christlikeness for the glory of God. "
