Being a man of God yet a man in the world can be extremely conflicting. Navigating life can be fraught with pressures, stumbling blocks and uncertainties which can make it seem impossible to succeed as a man after God’s heart.
This practical and challenging course considers the true meaning of manhood as God intended it to be and what you are created for. It will explore common areas of difficulty men fall into, looking at how the past has contributed to creating wrong pathways for your present and future, maybe leaving you with a sense of failure and you are ‘just not good enough’.
Looking at your God-given identity, with your unique gifts and qualities, it seeks to strengthen your relationship with God and your view of yourself in order to enable you to be able to withstand the pressures, temptations and expectations the world throws at you.
Registration starts at 4:30pm and the course begins with an evening meal at 6pm. The course will end with lunch on the final day at 1pm with departure by 3.30pm.
I have learnt that Jesus doesn't live in a religious box but lives in complete freedom and invites me to live with Him with real joy and adventure. I'm experiencing more and more of what it means to know the truth and this truth setting me free.
The course includes 8 teaching sessions with prayer ministry available during approximately half of those.
The following topics will be covered during the teaching sessions:
A great opportunity to talk to other men without feeling condemned.
