“As iron sharpens iron, so one man sharpens another.” Proverbs 27:17

More than anything today, our society needs men who are willing to stand up and make a difference. Men, who having counted the cost, are willing to reflect the character of Jesus Christ in a world of negotiable values, confused identities, and distorted priorities.

What does it take to be such a man? How does one become fully Christ-like and fully masculine? What does Christ-like masculinity look like in such areas as friendship, marriage, family, church, business - and most importantly - with your relationship with God?

When you reach the end of your life and look back, will your thoughts be of sorrow or satisfaction? Will you wish you had spent more time at the office? Will you regret pursuing the things that don’t last? Or will you rejoice in the commitments you made to God, your family and friends? Will you cross the finish line faithful to the promises you made?

You can, by joining with us at In His Presence Church Men’s Ministry. God has always used men to shake the nations…and His desire is to use the men of In His Presence Church to shake our world today.

You’ll learn an exciting approach to setting and pursuing your goals. Along the way, you’ll learn how you can:

  • Know God on a more personal, intimate level
  • Build strong accountable relationships with other men
  • Live a life built on honesty and purity
  • Grow closer to your wife and kids
  • Befriend and support your pastor while serving in your church
  • Change the world one life at a time

Every man desires to make his life count for something, and I believe that every Christian man, no matter his race, age, vocation, or status, holds something powerful and important in his hands: the ability to leave a legacy with eternal ramifications.

The Men’s Ministry of In His Presence will help you fulfill that desire. The fourfold mission of Ironmen is to develop godly men who: (1) have an intimate and disciplined relationship with the Lord; (2) are committed husbands and fathers; (3) have accountable relationships with other men; (4) are strong, mature leaders in the church.

What is an Ironman?

  1. An Ironman is a man of integrity.
  2. An Ironman is a man of intimacy.
  3. An Ironman is a man of identity.
  4. An Ironman is a man of influence.
