Why Are We Here?

It isn’t that they can’t see the solution. It is that they can’t see the problem.
- G. K. Chesterson

For every 10 men in the average church…

  • 9 will have kids who leave the church
  • 8 will not find their jobs satisfying
  • 6 will pay monthly minimum on credit cards
  • 5 have a major problem with pornography
  • 4 will get divorced affecting 1,000,000 children each year
  • Only 1 will have a biblical worldview
  • All 10 will struggle to balance family & work

The numbers are not pretty…

  • 108,000,000 men 15 or older (est. 2003).
  • 66,000,000 men don’t know Christ.
  • Only 6,000,000 men in discipleship.
  • 72,000,000 children under 18. Tonight, 33% of them will go to bed in a home without a biological father.
  • 40% of first marriages end in divorce affecting 1,000,000 children each year.
  • 33% of all children are born out of wedlock.

The Greatest Needs We Face…

  • A Moral & Spiritual Reformation of Society
  • A Discipleship Reformation of the Church
  • A Reformation of the Christian Family
  • A Reformation of Christian Marriage
  • A Reformation of Biblical Manhood
  • A Reformation of Biblical Womanhood
The greatest need we have in America today is to reach our men.
- Hugh O. Maclellan

  • Martin Luther… 40 Years… Half the churches in Europe. A significant impact can be made in one generation.
  • A National Call to Biblical Manhood
