A disciple is someone called, equipped, and sent--called to live "in" Christ, equipped to live "like" Christ, and sent to live "for" Christ. Does this describe the men in your church?
We find the majority of men who profess faith are not disciples who lead powerful transformed lives by Christ. And most of them hate it! That's why we exist. And we want to partner with you to change that.
How can we help you grow, and equip you to help others grow?

NOT WHO YOU THINK THEY ARE: A Profile of the People Who Attend America's Megachurches
Have you wondered what it would be like to go to the nearest megachurch, sit down in one of their comfy chairs, get inside the mind of the congregation, and see their church as they do? You wouldn't be alone – in a typical week more than 5 million people attend megachurches across America.
So who are these folks? What attracts them and keeps them at these churches? And how do the attitudes and spiritual activities of these people compare with attenders in churches of other sizes?
Over the last 10 years we have learned quite a bit about U.S. megachurches, both the facts and fictions about these very large Protestant churches of 2,000 or more weekly attenders. However, until now, very little was known about those who attend these churches. This report summarizes the initial learnings from the first major national survey of megachurch attenders.

Jesus Christ is Alive!
"The great Easter truth is not that we are to live newly after death - that is not the great thing - but that we are to live here and now by the power of the resurrection; not so much that we are to live forever as that we are to, and may, live nobly now because we are to live forever." -Phillip Brooks

The Empty Cross, The Empty Tomb by Adrian Warnock
Although we talk about the death of Jesus often, for some reason we have tended to only mention the resurrection at Easter time. Christians sometimes even say Jesus died to save us without mentioning that he also rose for our salvation. It's time to redress the balance a bit and talk more about Jesus' death and resurrection.

Jesus Christ's Resurrection: The Exclamation Point by Hank Hanegraaff
The physical resurrection of Christ is the cornerstone of our faith. Without it, Christianity crumbles. It is precisely because the physical resurrection of Christ is at the very heart of Christianity that it is constantly under attack. Our culture frequently denies the bodily resurrection of Jesus Christ due to a bias against miracles. It is common for aberrant Christianity and cultism to deny the physical resurrection of Christ as well. For these reasons, we must be equipped to defend this essential of essentials. To do so, let's look back at the biblical and historical records of Christ's resurrection.
