Stop to read Romans chapter 8 today. In it you’ll read things like this: What then shall we say to these things? If God is for us, who can be against us? He who did not spare His own Son, but delivered Him up for us all, how shall He not with Him also freely give us all things? Who shall separate us from the love of Christ? Shall tribulation, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, or peril, or sword? Yet in all these things we are more than conquerors through Him who loved us. For I am persuaded that neither...

Jesus was known as a “friend of sinners.” There is a wide gap between being a friend and just being friendly. Being friendly accepts no responsibility for the other person’s wellbeing.

A whole generation lost. A nation destroyed. Why? They failed to disciple the next generation. We can't let that happen on our watch. In a time of confusing voices, young men must have a clear, Christ-centered path to follow. As culture drifts farther from biblical masculinity the need for grounded, godly young men has never been more critical. The solution is a brotherhood and community that provides a...
