However, we LOVE the church. We also love the men who attend them and the men that don’t.
We know what you might be thinking as you’re reading this page - “Oh no, not another Christian men’s event”. If you’ve ever attended them before, you know they can often leave you feeling… underwhelmed.
The challenge with most Christian men’s events is that they are just another church service in disguise. Often they are full of instructions promoting short-term “behavior modifications” with messages that you “should” do this or you “ought” to do this.
Showing up and serving matters…but rotating volunteer roles, handing a man a vest or a program, repeating “attend more, serve more, read more” may keep things running, but they don’t prepare a man for the weight he carries or the battles he faces. Men desire challenge, testing, and formation not just tasks. Tasks are not enough for the heart of a man.
Every man carries a longing deep in his soul…a battle to fight, an adventure to live, and a woman to rescue. At For Freedom Outreach Training Camp, we meet that ache head on.
By creating an environment for men to have an encounter with God and pushing men to grow, strengthen, and become prepared. When they leave, they return to their churches, families, and lives ready…more capable, disciplined, and powerful.
