You’re on the verge of new victories and taking a huge part in the Kingdom of Jesus Christ. This is a fight that we as brothers are engaging in to set men free around us and around the world. When David went to war against Goliath, the Bible says he “ran to the battle.” It wasn’t even his fight. It was on behalf of others who were in fear. David took the initiative to run to the fight to win a victory for others. This is who you are. A man who cares enough to fight. We have powerful opportunities...

I was fishing with my grandsons yesterday on their holiday, watching them as they intently waited for a hit from what they hoped was the biggest fish they'd ever caught. Cold and windy, not ideal, but we did manage a couple fat rainbow trout. As I watched them, I wondered what they would remember. They're 8 and 11 years old.

We're now in the season of Lent. It's the forty-day historical church season that culminates in the joy of Easter. It represents the forty days of fasting and testing that Jesus endured in the wilderness. It's a season to remind ourselves of His great love for us and to reconsecrate our hearts. To strengthen the power of this season, consider these three love-gifts that Jesus gave us at the cross. Forgiveness: We have been set free – the death sentence over our heads has been lifted, we can breathe deep the fresh air of new life in Christ! Forgiveness is...

The solution to addiction is connection. When men are connected to friends and brothers, the healing of hearts, hurt,s and life’s bruises is exponential. Health is the byproduct of a healthy environment. Connection is brotherhood. It’s a core value of CMN and should be a core value of your life - because there’s a brother that needs you. You have value in another man’s life. A ministry to men can be the results of purpose, communication, strategy, and effort. But, fundamentally, it’s about friendship. Brotherhood. Abraham, the father of faith had a secret weapon, the same secret weapon God has...
