Community of Men is a ministry based out of North Minneapolis with the sole purpose of drawing men out of isolation and into community. We do this by meeting monthly for social activities where we can learn to trust one another and discover similar interests. But we also offer weekly support/accountability groups to any man who finds himself stuck in his sin or addiction. We also make resources available to anyone who wants to start a similar ministry in their church or community.
Our Core Beliefs about Manhood:
1. Man is created to be relational. 2. Man is his weakest in isolation. 3. Man is by nature a selfish individual and therefore only as strong as his support system. 4. Man can only be held accountable when he chooses to let himself be. 5. All men live with the same temptations and insecurities. 6. Our sin and the shame that accompanies it have been paid for at the cross. 7. We are physical, emotional, intellectual, and spiritual beings all at the same time. 8. Man's single biggest need is affirmation.
Our Initiatives:
Forward Progress- This is a sixteen week support/accountability group designed to help you overcome destructive behaviors.
Father Focus- We offer mentorship to new dads in order to help them become dads who affirm and empower their children.
Boys to Men Wilderness Camp- This is a multi-generational rite of passage retreat. We combine physical work with spiritual growth and expose the lies about what it means to be a man. Then we focus on becoming men of God.
Community of Men Retreat- These events are a great way to get guys plugged into deeper community. We offer them in Minneapolis, but can bring one to any area in the United States.
Consultation- We can help you get the help you need in the aea of habitual sinful behavior. We can help you start a Community of Men group yourself or help you take your existing men's group deeper in accountable relationships.

That stuff is my job, my heart and my passion. But my pleasure, my joy and my first priority is being the husband my wife Jean deserves. I also want to be the father that my three boys Joseph, Braden, and Jordan need. The whole purpose of Community of Men is so that I can be and do theses things for those I love and who love me. I don't want "God First, my wife second, my kids third and myself last" just to be a christian cliche that I plug into my life. I want it to be real, but I can be pretty selfish. So I choose to live my life in an accountable community of like-minded men who can help me keep my priorities in their proper order. |

Bro Brad! (That sounds funny-lol) Would you add a prayer or even just a "I'm praying" kinda thing to my latest blog? I want the couple to be overwhelmed (in a good way) with all the ppl who are standing with them, in agreement for their kid's healing. I'd like to print them out and give the prayers to them this Sunday at church. Thank you! Agape love!!! Spread the word too, if you could? :-)
