What is Men's Fraternity?
Men's Fraternity is a series of three one-year-long studies, beginning with The Quest for Authentic Manhood, followed by Authentic Manhood: Winning at Work and Home, and concluding with The Great Adventure series. More than just a rally or a Bible study, 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.
Men's Fraternity was designed to help men come together and strengthen each other through weekly sessions that combine biblical teaching and small group interaction.
These time-tested resources have been used all over the world to equip men to make their pursuit of noble manhood a lifelong priority. Church leaders and lay members are using the series to energize the men of their church and to connect with men in the community. Many men also use the series in their own personal pursuit of authentic manhood.
Every Wednesday Morning at Trinity Fellowship Hall
The third course: "The Great Adventure" begins on Wednesday morning, September 23rd, with breakfast at 6:00 am and presentation beginning at 6:15 am, with group discussion from 7:00-7:30 am. Men - you do not have to take the first or second course to take this third one, but you are strongly encouraged to do so. If any of you are interested in taking the first or second course, let Pastor Menke know. Each participant will need to purchase his own workbook and bring a Bible.
The Great Adventure explores a man and his world beyond the everyday. The 20-session study puts the roof on the house of masculinity and creates a vision for a man's future and destiny. This study will help men rediscover the adventure in life through a greater understanding of who they are. Men will uncover the uniqueness they have as a man and discover a satisfying life focus. It will challenge men to consider several important questions they are continually asking themselves:
- "Who am I?"
- "What are my life dreams in life?"
- "Do I have courage to pursue those dreams?"
It also introduces a tool, Your Unique Design™, to help men better understand their makeup, who they are, what their natural strengths are and the types of environments in which they thrive.
THE ORIGIN
Men's Fraternity was created by Robert Lewis, pastor-at-large of Fellowship Bible Church in Little Rock, Arkansas and author of Raising a Modern Day Knight. It began in 1990 with 30 participants as Robert strived to connect with and challenge the men of his church. Over the years it has developed into a series of studies designed to engage the heart as well as the mind, stripping away the myths of manhood, and focusing on how each individual can be transformed into a true man of God. Now, more than 15,000 groups of men attend a weekly Men's Fraternity meeting globally.
