Title: Defying the Odds: A Call to Resilient LivingDescription: All of us face unexpected challenges. This is especially true for men today striving to be Godly leaders in their homes, offices, and communities. We experience victories in our life only to be immediately faced with new problems and sometimes, resurfacing battles we thought we’d already won. Often, we forget that God regularly has to bring us THROUGH something to bring us TO something. Yet in the fight, He provides the strength and skills we need if we listen and choose to be obedient. There is an unexpected and unlikely hero found in the book of Judges that demonstrates this powerful lesson on being a resilient follower of Jesus and one who defies the odds.

Title: The Power of Encouragement: Believe in SomebodyDescription: There is plenty of discouragement to go around these days. Men of all ages are constantly met with criticism, critique, and contempt. We all need the infusion of hope that encouragement can bring. How can we find encouragement and also be an encouragement to others? The life of an overlooked biblical figure provides a compelling example for us today.
Bill Glaze
Title: Men Joyfully Serving OthersDescription: Jesus said, “Whoever would be great among you must be your servant.” His use of the term great was in reference to leadership. When it comes to leadership in reference to men, the best leaders are servants. In this breakout session we will not only look at the qualities of men who are servants but how to do it joyfully.

Mike Rue [youth session]
Title: Gotta Wear Shades: A deep dive into the traps of Social MediaDescription: In the same way that sunglasses protect our eyes from harmful UV rays, we as men, both young and old, must take the necessary precautions to protect what our eyes see. Social media has greatly shifted our self-perception and how we operate in society. The Bible says that our eyes are the windows to our souls. They are the entry point to our Thoughts, Will, and Emotions. Because our eyes give direct access to our hearts, we as men must protect our eyes at all costs and guard our hearts, because everything we do flows from it.
Jeremiah Canfield
Title: Parenting Teens in Today’s Chaotic CultureDescription: We are told that the teenage years are the worst of all the parenting stages. Yes, these years are challenging as your teen begins to form who they will become. However, as a father, God has given you the wisdom and tools to capture their heart and help them flourish through these stretching and unique years. We will unpack how to Disciple, Discipline, and Direct our teenagers with key principles from God’s Word.

Title: How to Possess the Promises of GodDescription: God has promised us a Life worth living… and a death worth dying! The question is, how do we ’possess’ those God-given Promises for our lives? The book of Joshua is a series of lessons for us. It is the story of Joshua’s leadership in moving God’s people from wandering through life into their Promised Life. From the choices and decisions they made to possess God’s Promises, we can take many valuable life lessons.

Title: The Metal of a Comeback ManDescription: Life is not one big victory or parade - it just doesn’t always go as we planned. We all know how it feels to experience disappointment, defeat, and loss. As men, we are challenged by situations that leave us frustrated and discouraged. However, there is good news (though a righteous man falls 7 times, he gets up again) with the metal, make-up, and marks of a comeback man. It’s time to live your comeback.
