Men's Ministry Around the PCA

There are many resources and upcoming events for men's ministry in the PCA. Here you will find some valuable resources for mentoring men in your church.

How to Help Men Love God More

A good summary of the goal of men’s ministry is to help men better love God with all their heart, mind, soul, and strength.  Bryan Chapel points out, “Spiritual change is more a matter of what our heart loves than what our hands do” (Holiness By Grace). So, what are the barriers that prevent our men from loving God more?

Men's Ministry Around the PCA

2011 GAThis year's General Assembly at Virginia Beach is just around the corner. There will be plenty of opportunities to use this time to strengthen your men's ministry. Find out how...

What a Son (Or Grandson) Needs to Grow into Authentic Manhood

Today’s feminized Western culture has declared war on masculinity.  To mention any fundamental differences between the sexes is not politically correct. Moreover, our boys are being pressured to be more like girls and subjected to a relentless assault upon their masculinity.

The Masculine Mandate: God's Calling to Men

Masculine MandatePostmodernity is peddling a disastrously feminized view of masculinity, surrendering men’s God-given roles to women and exalting a monosexualism that flies directly in the face of God’s purposes for creation.  There is a crying need in the church today to recover a biblical view of manhood. But we must be certain that our vision of what a man is called to be is reached through sound exegesis of the texts relating to masculinity.  Phillips’ excellent book provides that exegesis.

Helping Men Become A Band of Brothers

All Christian men fight inner battles with their sinful nature. Lust, anger, selfishness, resentment, impatience, discontent, idolatry are just some of the forces that seek to overpower us as men. Many times we lose these battles for a simple reason—we are trying to fight them by ourselves.

On January 16, 103 pastors, elders, and other men’s ministry leaders attended the Reaching Every Man training led by PCA Men’s Ministry Consultant Gary Yagel at the Westminster Presbyterian Church in Lancaster, PA.  One enthusiastic participant commented, “I can’t remember ever gathering with one hundred men for anything, much less gathering with one hundred leaders to learn how to more effectively disciple men.”

Reaching Every Man

Several graduates of RTS Orlando, along with a third PCA member, began to conduct extensive research into churches that were effectively discipling men, to determine why they were so successful. They saw time and again that the churches with effective long term processes that produced Godly disciples followed the same principles. For example, they targeted the hearts of men, not their behavior.
