STAND FIRM — 2026 Men’s Conference

“Be watchful, stand firm in the faith, act like men, be strong.” — 1 Corinthians 16:13

What does it mean to be a man in a culture where the definition of manhood is increasingly unclear?

STAND FIRM: Act Like Men is a call for men to rediscover God’s design for manhood and embrace the responsibility, strength, character, and spiritual maturity needed to lead well in every area of life.

Throughout the conference, we will have honest conversations about the crisis of modern manhood—addressing the pressures and challenges men face today, including identity, passivity, isolation, temptation, lack of purpose, and declining responsibility. More importantly, we will turn to Scripture to discover God's vision for men and what it looks like to live with conviction, courage, sacrifice, service, and spiritual strength.

Our plenary sessions will challenge men to stand firm in their faith and take responsibility for their spiritual lives, character, families, relationships, work, church, and influence.

The conference will also feature practical breakout sessions focused on key areas of a man's life:

  • Becoming Financially Secure: developing biblical stewardship, financial stability, and wisdom for the future.

  • Taking Care of Your Health: stewarding your body and developing habits that help you live, lead, serve, and finish strong.

  • Developing an Unshakable Prayer Life: building a consistent and powerful prayer life that strengthens your relationship with God.

This is more than a men's conference. It is a call to biblical manhood, to become men who are spiritually grounded, responsible, disciplined, courageous, and prepared to serve God and others faithfully.

  • Our families need these men.

  • Our churches need these men.

  • Our communities need these men.

It’s time to STAND FIRM. It’s time to ACT LIKE MEN.
