Is There a Need for Men Groups In The 21st Century Church?

by | Oct 29, 2019 | Church

The world we live in changes rapidly with each passing year. Some wonder if the role of the local church is still to provide Christian fellowship among those who choose to attend. Specifically, is there still a place for Christian life groups for men in today’s church? The answer is yes! Here are some reasons why maintaining and supporting this kind of ministry matters.

Forging Friendships

Work and family don’t always leave much time to forge strong relationships between men. In fact, many men have more acquaintances than they have friends. Within the structure of a men’s group, it’s possible to connect with those who are on the same faith journey and develop connections helping men feel less isolated.

A Place to Discuss What Matters

One of the enduring qualities of Christian life groups for men is they provide a setting for men to talk about matters of faith, life choices in light of their religious convictions, and to listen to the experiences and thoughts other men have along those same lines. The collective thoughts shared in those meetings can often be the means of finding inspiration and the motivation to continue advancing in understandings of Christian witness, ethics, and actions.

Support During All Of Life’s Seasons

Men of different ages find themselves facing new challenges. Whether those challenges have to do with shifts in health, adjusting to the loss of a spouse, or facing financial issues. The support found within Christian life groups for men makes facing and dealing those events a little easier. As with exploring Christian faith and witness, the collective life experiences of the group members can often lead to solutions that make new challenges a little easier to bear.
