AFC’s “Ministry to Men” Mission Statement:

At AFC “Men” are Important and we care about you. Our three core objectives are to; Support Dr. Joe and help him minister to hurting men, develop enough leaders that they can take a personal interest in every man in the Church, and have ministry opportunities that will help disciple men to become the Man God made them to be.

Making disciples is about taking men and helping them become mature, passionate followers of Jesus. We encourage men to have a “Paul” and a “Timothy” in their lives. And support older men coming along side younger men and bridge the generational gap of today. With social media, Men have never been more connected and at the same time the loneliest and isolated.

This journey of making disciples can be represented by a continuum. There are five distinct types of men in today’s Church that are part of this continuum, Men that need Christ, Cultural Christians, Biblical Christians, Leaders, and Hurting Men. Our “Ministry to Men” tries to help men at every stage of their journey. We call this concept the Wide & Deep Continuum.

Every man in our church can be placed somewhere on this continuum, and that determines the offerings that will appeal to him. We try to balance our events & activities to meet all our men’s needs on this continuum. As a man matures in his faith, he will move farther down the continuum and be interested in different things.

AFC strives to create value, capture momentum, and sustain change for our “Ministry to Men.” Creating excitement and momentum also needs an important next step. Once men get involved, we strive to have something next for them to become active in. Our Events and Activities are designed to help and give men an on-ramp to become active at AFC.

Be a part of the “Ministry to men” of AFC. Be watching and get signed up for our next Event or Classroom offerings.

Authentic Manhood

Authentic Manhood is all about setting men up to live lives of truth, passion and purpose. Our resources offer clear and practical Biblical insights on God’s design for manhood that are both refreshing and inspiring. We point men to a gospel-centered vision of life that sets them up to enjoy God’s grace as they pursue the promises of His Word.

Our resources, including the original Men’s Fraternity curriculum created by Dr. Robert Lewis, have influenced millions of men around the world. Our newest resource is “33 The Series.” It is a multi-volume, gospel-centered video series that presents the timeless truths of Authentic Manhood in a powerfully new and engaging way. It includes new insightful teaching, inspiring testimonies, expert interviews and multiple creative features. As a man experiences the different volumes of 33, he will find himself building a vision for Authentic Manhood in his own life that is built on the gospel of Jesus Christ and was modeled by Him in His 33 years on earth.
