Every
man has blank places in his life; the places that he tries to fill
yet remain naggingly empty. It seems that we’ve been left to ourselves
to try to figure it out...by ourselves.
mensfraternity
exists to help men find the answers they’ve been looking
for. The Quest for Authentic Manhood is a 24-session journey
that equips men to live the life that God intended for them. During
this journey, men learn how to overcome some of life's painful wounds
and move forward embracing a clear definition of manhood and end
up developing a personal manhood plan. Along the way men will experience
a level of comaraderie that will result in meaningful friendships
as well.
Designed
to help a man embrace a bolder and more noble concept of manhood,
Quest also takes a man
inside himself to consider the forces that are shaping — or
misshaping — his personal manhood. In doing so, this 24-session
study empowers a man to heal life-hindering wounds while building
a more compelling vision of masculinity that will bless both
his life and the lives around him.
Quest
also fosters deep spiritual and emotional growth. This powerful
masculine experience strips away the myths of manhood to reveal
a man's true identity and pursuits. What's more, it's a proven
way to help men find a real connection... with each other,
with the church, and most importantly, with God.
Topics include "The Four Faces of Manhood"; "The
Wounded Heart"; "A Biblical Definition of Manhood";
"A Man & His Wife"; "Fathers and Sons"
and "Fathers and Daughters."
The QUEST begins with a retreat on September 24-26, 2010 (Fri, 5 PM - Sun, 12 PM) at Tahquitz Pines (http://www.tahquitzpines.com) in Idyllwild.
Price:$115 per person Cost includes 2 nights lodging (dorm style), 5 meals, a workbook, and activities (basketball, volleyball, horseshoes, hiking, and more).
