Many men, when they see the topic of marriage come up, think, “That’s not for me. I’m not married.” Brett Clemmer shares the lessons the Bible has for us as men and husbands to have vibrant relationships with the women in our lives.
Men attend our Bible study for many reasons, but one thing we all have in common is a deeply-felt hunger to know more about God. In this lesson we’ll talk about three key ways that can help you know more about God.
Life tends to pull us in so many different directions and if we are not careful, the many facets of life can consume us. Khayree Pender will show us that it is important to have an action plan. It is never too late to make adjustments or create a plan. {permalink}
These are turbulent times to be a man. As Nick put it, “It feels almost impossible to live out a biblical model of manhood.” None of us fail on purpose, but neither do we succeed by accident. We need a plan. This series is the plan.
The Big Idea: Be a friend. Pray. Serve. Give.
The challenge in the previous message, “How a Cup of Coffee Can Change the World”, was to begin the process of engaging another man in conversation and begin to get to know him.
Great. Now what?
Introducing the Next Step Triple Threat. Like the great “Read Option” offense that Tim Tebow ran as a Heisman-winning college quarterback, the Next Step Triple Threat gives you three options to pick from to continue to grow an intentional spiritual friendship with another man.
So how exactly do men develop relationships? We tend to bond in shared experiences (verses shared conversations), and there’s a definite progression. You can see it in the way that Jesus built a seemingly random group of strangers into a band of brothers ready to die for their cause. You’ll gain some new insights and tools as we look at God’s Word together and see how Jesus himself built intentional spiritual friendships.
If you want to help a man become a disciple, then what is it exactly that you want to help him become? And precisely how do you go about helping him do it? Those are the questions we’ll begin to answer in the first lesson of this series.
Join us as guest speaker Marcos Peres speaks from his own experiences on how to guard your mind and heart and live a life of sexual integrity. He’ll talk about forming a battle plan and developing healthy, accountable relationships to help you.
You’ve set a goal. Visualized your future. Worked as hard as you can to bring it to fruition. And it just…doesn’t happen. Whether you’ve crashed and burned in spectacular fashion, or watched your plans fizzle out, it is devastating when you realize your dream will not come true.
At one time or another, most men realize they have a destructive habit in their life. What does it take to overcome those habits? Are you willing to do what it takes? Join Ed Kobel as he shares a powerful insight for living as the man God created you to be.

Jesus says repeatedly, “If you need something just ask for it in my name.” So why is it that when we ask, sometimes we get what we pray for, but sometimes we don’t? Does prayer alter outcomes, or does it only align us with what God was going to do anyway?
Jesus told us the most important thing we can do is love God with all our might. So we set our hearts, souls, and minds on that course. But then…life happens. Who among us doesn’t feel overrun (or even knocked down) by troubles and setbacks? Do you find yourself (at least somewhat) confused about what to do next?
When asked which commandment is the most important, Jesus didn’t hesitate. He said #1 is to love God with all of your heart, soul, mind, and strength. What does that mean—really?
Do you feel pressure to succeed, humanly speaking? Most of us feel like our relationships are contingent on the effort we put forth, the level at which we perform, or the results we produce. If you win, you’re in. But what does the Bible say about success?
You’ve heard your body is the temple of the Holy Spirit, right? What does the Holy Spirit do for us—for you—that only he can do? And what are the implications?
Join Brett Clemmer as we examine this kind, powerful shepherd, and how knowing Him is the only way into a deeper walk with God.
We all want to believe and trust that God really knows and cares about us personally, right? What hinders us from feeling that way, and what can we do about it? By the end of this session you will feel the joy of a little boy who just spent the morning with his Papa learning how to fish. Patrick Morley will help us explore the richness of what it means to feel that way toward God our Father—the perfect example of a father.
Every man who loves or wants to love God eventually finds himself hungry for a deeper, richer, more consistent experience with God. This hunger is attended by many cravings which this series will explore—e.g., feeling desperate for more of God, fear that we’re missing “it,” an ache in our soul for “something more,” or wanting to feel useful.
When it comes to faith, can we just be honest? It’s kind of like that awkward silence. Or, like that elephant in the room that needs to be addressed. But, here lies the problem—who’s going to address a 13,000-pound situation? Faith is unique because we are told to apply faith, but there is no reference guide or instruction manual to show us how to properly use it, or is there a proper way to use it?
