Rob Maine | The Way Up is to Get Low [Sold Out]
In a culture that tells men to climb, dominate, and prove themselves, Jesus shows us a radically different path. From the incarnation to the cross, Christ redefines strength through humble, meek, lowly and sacrificial love.

Jeremiah Canfield | To "Man Up" Starts in the Heart
Joshua shows us that “manning up” doesn’t begin with the spotlight; it begins in the secret places of the heart. Even as a public, appointed leader, what set him apart wasn’t his title but the inner posture of a man shaped by God. In this breakout, we’ll look at the kind of heart Joshua carried and what it means for men today who want to walk with God from the inside out.*ASL Interpreters will be available at this breakout.

Craig Giles | Become Who God Designed You to Be
Every generation has produced men who rise above the ordinary; Joshua leading with courage, David fighting with conviction, Nehemiah navigating new narratives, Paul pressing forward with purpose. These were not perfect men, but men who embraced sacred codes that shape soldiers of life. This breakout session uncovers those timeless codes and the essential steps every man can take on the adventurous journey toward becoming who God designed him to be. Attributes that awaken the warrior, builder, protector, leader, and servant within that sharpen one another to produce more than they ever imagined possible.

Bill Glaze | The Standard [Sold Out]
In a culture where definitions of manhood are constantly shifting, rebranded, and redefined, God has not changed His mind.

From courage and conviction to integrity and spiritual leadership, we will examine how God defines strength, responsibility, purity, humility, and perseverance.
