Episode Details

The recent statistic that less than 10% of churches in America have an active mens ministry is quite surprising. As someone with experience in church leadership, I understand the challenges of running an effective mens ministry, yet it makes me question why this number is so low. This situation raises important questions about how we foster masculinity and faith within our communities.

If you’ve ever felt like men’s ministry was awkward, boring, or just not worth your time, this will help you understand why—and what needs to change. We walk through the real reasons men disengage and how to build something they actually want to be part of:

- Why most men’s ministries fail to attract and retain men
- The difference between how men and women connect
- Why social-based groups don’t work well for men
- The role of challenge, action, and growth in male engagement
- What men are actually looking for in a brotherhood
- How to create a men’s ministry that men show up for
