Men’s Ministry
By God’s grace we aim to link arms as a Band of Brothers…
… renewed in Christ, who seek to live for the supreme value of God’s glory under the rule of God’s word as those who have been cleansed by his Son and empowered by his Spirit.
We desire to press on in the faith, toiling together with the weapons of grace, exhorting one another to live, love, and lead as blood-spattered, warrior-servants of King Jesus in whatever domain God has made us stewards, so that we may ultimately be presented mature in Christ, to the glory of God the Father.
Our goal has never been to make BOB the answer, rather we want to encourage the men of the church to regularly gather off site in small groups and to develop strong, trusting relationships with each other.

FALL BIBLE STUDY
Wednesdays in the East Sanctuary
7:00 – 8:30pm
Men’s Fall Bible Study: Living in the Hope of Glory
Discover how Christ transforms every part of life through our new men’s Bible study on the book of Colossians. Centered on the powerful theme of “Christ in you, the hope of glory” (Col. 1:27), this study is designed to equip men:
- To rightly handle the Word of truth
- To proclaim the gospel of Christ with confidence
- To lead faithfully at home, in the church, and throughout the community
Each week features a lively, interactive six-question method that fosters meaningful discussion, deep fellowship, and accountability. Come and grow with other men who are seeking to live in the hope and power of Christ—becoming lights for His glory in a dark world.

Men’s Conference – October 5, 2024
In a culture where the definition of manhood is up for grabs, what does it mean to be a man? Paul Felix (Los Angeles Bible Training School), Erik Thoennes (Grace EV Free), and Mike Winger (Bible Thinker) will help us answer that question according to the Bible in two talks, a panel discussion, and a group conversation.
