Why Join a Men's Group?
"The Manhood Crisis"
“If either of them falls down, one can help the other up. But pity anyone who falls, and has no one to help them up.” – Ecclesiastes 4:10
The Manhood Crisis is more than a statistic; it’s a growing concern that affects the core of our communities. Currently, over 50% of men report feeling isolated, contributing to an alarming increase in mental health issues, including a 40% rise in depression rates among men in recent years. Moreover, men are now four times more likely to succumb to suicide compared to women, signaling a dire need for intervention and support.
"Iron Sharpens Iron"
“As iron sharpens iron, so one person sharpens another.” – Proverbs 27:17.
Joining a men’s group is essential for those seeking personal and spiritual growth. Like iron sharpens iron, these groups foster resilience and strength among members through shared wisdom and experiences. In these sanctuaries of brotherhood, vulnerability becomes strength, challenges are met with collective wisdom, and every man is both teacher and student.

Our Flagship Discipleship Group
Virdux, Latin for Leading Men, is a dynamic disciple making community that meets both in-person and online.
Our weekly meeting kicks off at 7:30 am ET with a short message, personal testimonies, hymn singing, and prayer.
Our 60-minute small groups break-out at 8:00 am. Most of these groups follow the “Every Man A Warrior” discipleship curriculum which helps men experience a closer walk with God, the foundation of true transformation.
We encourage you to consider joining our brotherhood!
Daily Prayer Circle
Prayer is the powerful lifeline of the soul and most men don’t pray enough.
Our virtual prayer circles are intended to be a place where men come together and call out to God for the outpouring of the Holy Spirit in these last days. Join us!
“if my people, who are called by my name, will humble themselves and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven, and I will forgive their sin and will heal their land.” 2 Chronicles 7:14
