Every Man Ministries

A defining moment is a point in your life when you're urged to make a pivotal decision, or when you experience something that fundamentally changes you. Not only do these moments define us, but they have a transformative effect on our perceptions and behaviors. This is God’s intention when you decide to

cross the line into a relationship with Christ. In fact, a

supernatural process begins and it is God’s intention

that your decision and this relationship FULLY DEFINE

you personally for the rest of your life. Join men’s expert

and pastor Kenny Luck as we explore the 5 powerful ways

a relationship with Christ is intended to fully define your life

right now.

Has someone ever asked you to do something and you didn't feel like doing it? Your first thought is "Now? Why now?" You have things to do. You have plans right now. You have needs that will go unmet if you say yes. All valid but because of who is asking you do what is requested, you don't voice any of those reasons saying "no" and you fulfill the request of the "asker." How about when God asks? How do you respond? Is it okay to struggle with the request? What puts God's man over the top? What should be your guiding motivation to do what he wants to do versus what you want to do at any given moment? In this last session of PUSH and PULL men's expert and Pastor Kenny Luck teams with Dusty Davis to finish this powerful series by addressing the personal spiritual dynamics of motivation and personal responses to God when he speaks into our lives a direction or request. Will it be "I have to do this?" Or, will it be "I want to do this!"? Your response matters but your motivation matters more to God.

Everyday we are forced to make decisions. Every YES is also a NO. Everything we step into, is a decision to step away from something else. How does God’s Man discern God’s will? When are we called to say YES and when are we called to say NO? How do we navigate a society that seems to elevate, encourage and even worship the very things that God’s man is called to say NO to? Join us as we jump into the Week 4 and unpack The Tension of Yes & No!

Oftentimes, as God’s men, we face crossroads in our lives where decisions must be made. The decisions are not always simply between what is right and what is wrong, but rather in discerning what is God’s will for our lives. In our desire to live on mission for Jesus we are often confronted with the choice…do I stay, or should I go? Am I to endure….or am I to move out in faith? When is God’s man called to remain and build up and when is he called forward to take new territory? Oftentimes we are called to both, to living out the beautiful rhythms of STAYING and GOING.

The best leaders on the planet, those that God can use mightily, are not first of all leaders….they’re followers. God’s man recognizes that he can never lead someone to places he’s never been, and so God’s man must learn to follow Jesus in order to lead. As we follow Jesus, however, we will quickly recognize our calling to lead others. To ensure the next generation has what it takes to stand tall for Christ. How do we balance this tension? To lead and to follow? In Part 2 of our series Push & Pull, we will unpack the core truths needed to be men humble enough to follow, and brave enough to lead.

We are launching into a new 4 week series entitled “PUSH AND PULL”, where we are going to unpack some of the tensions of our faith that we experience as Gods Men. Living in an upside down Kingdom where to be great we must become nothing, where the way up is down and where we must balance seemingly opposite rhythms. Along the way we’ll discuss the Rhythms of Being & Doing, Following & Leading, Staying & Going and the balance of Yes and No.

Dark is the context for light. That means you understand and appreciate light when you can't see but need to see! The light comes on and you can now navigate your environment with less fear. This is exactly why Jesus said that his followers would be "light" that would be placed on a "lamp stand" or optimal spot to spread the most light. Your lamp stand is where you live, where you work, where you play, where you pray, or where you are at any given moment. These spaces and places are YOUR unique context where God has placed you to shine. Jesus said, "I have come into the world as light, so that no one who believes in me should stay in darkness." This Jesus. Jesus is in you. Is this you? Join men's expert and pastor Kenny Luck for this powerful session on the influence God has uniquely appointed for you - right where you are!

Following Jesus means taking risks in your relationship with God as well as in your relationships with people. When speaking to his men he also told them they would be taking risks in their relationship to His church. Specifically, that they would be connected to an evil defeating machine that advanced his agenda on earth! As both head and builder of His church, we are called to follow his example of building up and serving the Body of Christ. This dimension of our journey with Jesus will also involve a tension, a stretching of our faith, and a life giving connection to a community of believers. Join men's expert and pastor Kenny Luck to learn exactly how Jesus expects God's man to think about, act toward, and engage His church.

Relationships are risky and unpredictable because the possibility exists that something bad or unpleasant will happen as opposed to what is hoped for happening. That is true in any relationship - even your relationship with God. But when you take risks in your relationship with God he rewards them and, over time, you begin to find courage to start risking in the second most important dimension of life - your personal relationships. But what are the things Jesus will ask you to trust him with and act on in your relationships? Join men's expert and Pastor Kenny Luck to learn how Jesus is calling you to the Next Adventure with him in your current relationships.

In the bible Jesus said to the men at the shoreline, “Let’s go to the other side.”.

He doesn’t tell them what is going to happen, but He challenges them to get in the boat. He invited every man on the shoreline to go on THE NEXT ADVENTURE. And for those men who risked a yes for the next adventure with Jesus, they witnessed and experienced things they never did before, and it changed them forever. There is a next adventure for you in your relationship with God. There’s a next adventure, next level for you in your relationship with people. But to experience that you have to leave the shoreline and risk a yes for a next adventure with Jesus.
