I’m Dave.

Like you, I was searching for the real man.

Is he the successful businessman, fitness guru, military man, hero???

With a group of fellow seekers, we studied the creation of Adam and began to understand God’s Master Plan for man.

A life changer. I’ve been organizing, teaching and leading men’s ministries across three continents ever since. 

Challenging guys to get off their screens and couch and step out across frozen lakes, snowy mountains, and long-distance trails.

When you face your Maker, yourself, the elements, and adversities,  you start tapping into powers that forge your character, allowing God to reveal more of your potential.

 






Character is like a teabag, you don't know what's inside

until it's steeped in hot water.





 

 

Do you see the need…

…for an environment where men can connect with each other on a deeper level, share their struggles, ask questions, and get input? 

Thinking of starting a men’s group?

You’ve probably gone to men’s conferences and breakfasts and read books on the subject… but you’re still struggling. And you know others in the same boat, rowing with the rope still tied to shore. Do you want to cut free and go deep to understand this man in you and what God had in mind when creating him? And discover these with a group of guys wanting the same?  

Then what’s holding you back from making that step, cutting the rope, starting the group?

  •      – Fear of failure? Of exposing inner secrets?
  •  
  •      – No idea how and with whom to start?

  •      – You did try, but the group fizzled out.
  •  

 

 

 

 

I’ve been there and know the struggle. 

A revelation that dramatically transformed how I face fear, doubt, and struggle…is the biblical principle that vision and opposition go hand in hand. This applied to Moses, King David, Nehemiah, and many others… also to us today. God gives the vision and allows opposition. Both from God. Vision moves us forward, while opposition creates dependence on God, putting Him in the driver’s seat. 

I wish I’d known this truth when I started my first men’s group. 

I wish I’d had someone come alongside giving guidance, direction, and encouragement,  a mentor I could reach out to with my questions and be accountable to with my struggles. 

 

 

Those who try many things make many mistakes.

Those who try nothing make the biggest mistake.

 

 

Your next steps:                                      

Once you see the need of starting a small men’s group, submit an Email, why you want to start the group or questions you might have. 

After the 30 minute call and approval into the course, commit to one-hour Zoom meetings every other week for three months.

Lead in the face of opposition with the grit to continue through setbacks.

 

My part for you:                                        

I assist men wanting to get their own men’s ministry off the ground but aren’t sure how. 

Come alongside and help you achieve your God-given vision through one-hour Zoom coaching every other week for three months.
