Mission Statement

Our mission is to empower men in Tennessee to become bold warriors for Christ.

​

Vision Statement

Our vision is to see a generation of men in Tennessee who are bold warriors for Christ, leading with passion and commitment. We envision them living out their faith consistently, guiding their families with a heart on fire for God, and boldly declaring, 'As for me and my house, we will serve the Lord.

​

Description

We offer an annual men's conference designed to encourage men to follow Christ wholeheartedly. Additionally, we provide an online group for interaction and training. In 2024, we launched 'Tennessee in Action' as a response ministry during times of disaster. We have since expanded it to include church repair projects for churches across Tennessee. All staff and crews are volunteers, and operations are funded through generous donations.
