Calling Men to Walk
with God & One Another
The Power of Covenant Friendships
Training men in spiritual habits that cultivate maturity.
Connecting men in small groups for encouragement and support.
Equipping men through a clear, reproducible path to follow Jesus.
A paradigm shift has begun
It is a reset of ministry and discipleship—moving away from dependence on programs and curriculum toward habits that produce real transformation.
Covenant Groups create highly relational environments where two essential practices every man needs are intentionally cultivated.
First, learning to walk daily with God in His Word—listening to Him, reflecting on His truth, and responding in obedience.
Second, learning to walk deeply with other men—pursuing spiritual maturity through shared honesty, accountability, encouragement, and brotherly love.
When these two habits take root, something powerful begins to happen. Men grow stronger. Faith deepens. Character is formed.
The world doesn’t need more content for men. It needs transformed men.
And transformation begins with us.
This paradigm shift is an invitation.
To move beyond
…teaching into life-on-life training,
…ministry as performance into ministry as relationship,
…knowledge alone into obedience that transforms.

Experienced disciple-makers know spiritual growth is best nurtured in the context of secure relationships—both with King Jesus and with other men. Just as Jonathan and David made a covenant to affirm their friendship and commitment to one another (1 Samuel 18), we need covenant friendships to grow spiritually.

"The pathway to maturity was never meant as a solo journey. Godly manhood is a team adventure. It's friends bonded together who encourage, affirm, and call out the best in one another. Having soul mates like this is one of life's greatest gifts"
— Dr. Robert Lewis
"True Community demands proximity, but it's not just proximity. True community requires commitment and honesty. It's a willingness to know and be known. Covenant Groups form the basis of what every man needs: true community."
Dr. Chris Harper — Chief Storyteller & CEO, BetterMan
"The pursuit of authentic manhood is first and foremost, a team sport. Together is always better...especially when we commit to seek Jesus and speak God's truth into one another's lives. The Covenant Group Discipleship Series has a PROVEN track record of helping men grow deep with God and with one another. I highly recommend it!”
Dr Robert Lewis — Pastor, Author, Founder--Men's Fraternity, BetterMan
"The Covenant Group Discipleship Series is a proven approach for equipping men to walk with God and other men, then equip others to do the same. Apprenticeship to Jesus is not a program but a deeply personal and passionate pursuit of knowing, reflecting and sharing Christ.”
