2024 BE STRONG MEN’S CONFERENCE

The world around us has tried (since the beginning of time) to define what manhood should look like—but they fall short every time. The Bible defines what real Biblical manhood is. The role of a “godly man” is among the highest callings you will ever receive. Never allow culture to twist your perspective of God’s calling. 

Spring Conference Teaching Focus

The Patriarchs of Israel (Abraham, Isaac, Jacob, Joseph)

$195 / person

God has ordained you to be a humble, bold leader among your family, friends, and church. It has nothing to do with your career, family history, or hobbies. We must view ourselves as more than conquerors through Christ, and fight to reflect the image of Christ in everything we do. At Be Strong, we will examine the Bible together to learn how God calls and equips us to lead, protect, serve, and shepherd those around us.

You and I must first submit to Christ as our Lord and King. He will fight for our holiness in and through us. We have all we need to grow in righteousness, godliness, faith, love, steadfastness, and gentleness. The Holy Spirit and our brothers in Christ have equipped us.

Our men’s conferences are packed with expositional preaching and high-adventure recreation.

“The teaching was incredible and the recreation was amazing. It was a much-needed weekend that helped me understand what biblical masculinity truly is.”

Jacob

“The mountains, the hospitality, the worship, the teaching, the food, it was all leveraged for Him to speak clearly…life-changing. We’ll be back for more.”
