Calling Men to Walk with God & One Another

Ministry to men is not a walk in the park. We must go deeper than news, weather, and sports. It requires intentionally sharing our lives with other men & developing spiritual habits that protect, support, and shape our lives.

What ministry leaders are saying…

“The pursuit of authentic manhood is first and foremost, a team sport. Together is always better … especially when men commit to seek Jesus and speak God’s truth into one another’s lives. The Covenant Group Discipleship Series has a PROVEN track record for helping men grow deep with God and with one another. I highly recommend it!”

“The Covenant Group Discipleship Series is a proven approach for equipping men to walk with God and 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…”

Ron Bennett

Author, Senior Navigators Staff

“Henry David Thoreau once said, ‘the mass of men lead lives of quiet desperation.’ The Covenant Group Discipleship Series serves as a blueprint for men. With this personal and practical framework, many men transition from ‘I can do this’ to ‘I can do this with other men.'”

Larry Glabe

“Experienced disciple-makers know spiritual growth is best nurtured in the context of secure relationships—both with our 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.”

John Werst

Director, Ministry to Men Network

“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 help form the basis of what every man needs: true community.”

Dr. Chris Harper

CEO, BetterMan

“It’s amazing to see what happens when a group of men expose their lives to God’s Word together. What a blessing to watch God change the lives of our brothers in Christ and to discover He is changing our life as well. The principles taught here will equip men for lifelong impact where we live, work and play.”

What participants say…

“I was a little standoffish at first…”

“I’ve made a commitment to read God’s word daily.”

“It’s easy to be an inch deep and mile wide…”

“My covenant group involvement has been intergenerational. The older men to give a perspective from life lessons and years of study. The younger men gave us a fresh perspective of the gospel. The collaboration has created a bond in Christ through Jesus and an appreciation for these young men.”

Rob S

“My dad and I have been involved in a covenant group for the past 2 years. It’s been great because it’s giving us an opportunity to talk about God’s Word every day and discuss questions and insights we had during our devotional reading. Our covenant group encourages healthy communication throughout the day and has made us closer.”

Jacob D

“For me, being in a covenant group has helped me further develop and define my relationship with God. The daily Bible readings have been a great “easy to follow” guide that has helped me further my knowledge and understanding in my faith.”

Josh T

“My son and I have been in a covenant group for a couple years now. It’s been wonderful to have this experience, and I look forward to our weekly meetings. It has been very beneficial to my own scripture reading and walk with God.”

“Hearing and reading the Bible has given me a new path to guide me through my chaotic life as a college student. Sharing my insights and listening to others has been a huge blessing.”

Steffen

“Being in a covenant Group has given me a sense of community with likeminded men, kept me consistent in my walk with the Lord, and has taught me skills that help me grow closer to God’s Word.”
