The Mountain of Manhood. It is the big wall every young man must one day conquer if he is to attain and enjoy authentic manhood. There was a time when the journey up this mountain was a trek eagerly anticipated. But, sadly, the experience of the climb has been long forgotten by many, and with it the excitement of true masculinity. A tragedy has befallen men. They have lost contact with the mountain. In doing so, they have also abandoned the men coming after them to feelings of loneliness, doubt, and overwhelming fear.

“It is a great thing to be on the mount with God, but a man only gets there in order that afterwards he may get down...and lift them up. The mount is not meant to teach us anything, it is meant to make us something” (My Utmost for His Highest).    -Oswald Chambers

Men's Fraternity is a series of three one-year-long studies, beginning with The Quest for Authentic Manhood, continuing with Winning at Work and Home, and ending with The Great Adventure. Men's Fraternity provides men with an encouraging process that teaches them how to live lives of authentic manhood as modeled by Jesus Christ and directed by the Word of God.

"The Quest for Authentic Manhood” currently meets on Wed. mornings at 6:15am and on Sundays at 4:00pm.  This class is scheduled to conclude in the spring.  Soon after that, “Winning at Work and Home” will begin.  To learn more, e-mail jd@fbcsparta.org
