Leadership Equipping Course
The mission of this course is to help men who aspire to be leaders define and accept their role in shepherding the members of their group. This material is intended to equip leaders with practical group facilitation skills and basic biblical counseling principles so they may encourage, exhort, and support men and foster trusted relationships within their group.
The Purpose of The Forge Groups
The purpose of the The Forge Discipleship Groups is to establish, support, resource and facilitate discipleship and mentoring groups for men of all ages. We hope to see lives transformed by the Holy Spirit through men as they intentionally and relationally disciple others. In the movie "The Forge", young Isaiah is guided into manhood by a faithful disciple of Jesus named Joshua. Joshua takes a risk, makes a commitment and helps guide Isaiah through the challenges of healing and growing into the man that God originally designed and created him to be. A year out of high school with no plans for his future, a boy is challenged by his single mom and a successful businessman to start charting a better course for his life. Through the prayers of his mother and biblical discipleship from his new mentor, he begins discovering God's purpose for his life is so much more than he could hope for or imagine.
Our Mission
Our mission is to create The Forge Men's Discipleship Groups throughout the United States. And to see men of all ages be engaged in life giving, transformative mentoring relationships.
Our Plan
Just as Jesus, who as one man, changed the world by discipling other men, our plan is to start small and grow through multiplication and mentorships until we present ourselves as fully mature in Christ.
Our Vision
From Ephesians 4:13 - "Until we all reach unity in the faith and in the knowledge of God's Son, becoming a mature person, reaching the measure of the fullness of Christ."
