Why have close to 20,000 men attended?

We asked previous attendees. One attendee, Chris, said, “Always very uplifting.” Dave said it is, “powerful”, and “challenging.” And Michael said, “I was in spiritual crisis…(the conference) helped to lift me out of darkness.” Don’t just take these men’s words for it, come discover for yourself.

Don’t miss this opportunity to: • Energize and deepen your faith • Gain insight into authentic masculinity and heroic virtue • Be inspired by others to live courageously for Christ • Feel a renewed sense of hope and purpose
