The Vision - Manhood
The vision of Faithful Men Ministries (FMM) is to see men's lives changed through the gospel of Jesus Christ. To see men grow up and mature in the Lord and become committed and consistent, faithful men.
We believe the example in Genesis 12:14-16 with Abram and his 318 men is the epitome of real men's ministry in the body of Christ. When you or I as a Christian man, hear a brother has benn taken captive, by anything, drugs, alcohol, pornography, adultery, lying, cheating, stealing or whatever it may be, we must be willing to drop what we are doing, pursue them and help restore them back into a right relationship with the Lord Jesus Christ.
The Purpose - Build Men , Raise Sons
Our main purpose is Building Men and Raising Sons to come along side the local pastor to help him fulfill the vision & dream God has given him. The pastor can't do it without his men and without strong men.
"Manhood and Christlikeness is synonymous"
Commissioning
The Strategy Our strategy is to mentor men through the local church by teaching the pastors and leaders how to disciple their men through the use of the "Majoring in Manhood" curriculum created by Dr. Edwin Louis Cole.
A Commissioned Man is:
- Consistently faithful; a man whose word is his bond.
- Capable of teaching what he has learned and discipling other men.
- Competent to rightfully divide the word of truth by studying and applying God’s Word.
- Committed to serving Christ, his family, his pastor, his church and his community.
A Commissioned Man is equipped to walk in true manhood.
“And the things which you have heard from me among many witnesses, commit these to faithful men who will be able to teach others also.”
2 Timothy 2:2
“Be diligent to present yourself approved to God, a worker who does not need to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.”
2 Timothy 2:15
