Men's Gathering

I have been discussing with Jason Phipps and others the need and potential for a men's gathering and study (By the way ladies, you can have one too). Not only that, but I have a potentially really cool place to hold it. You'd probably want to come just because of the place, even if you don't like the gathering!

What do you think? Would time together as men, young and old, be worthwhile? Is it something you'd make time for? What would you recommend for a gathering? And, most importantly, is there anyone in your sphere of influence that you could persuade to make really good snacks for said gathering? ;-)

Sound off! Tell me what you think!

Blessings
Jack

P.S. Is this something you think would be good for outreach as well, i.e. would you invite your friends?

I was involved with a monthly men's group that showed the Neal Jeffreys inspirational series. We met one Friday evening once a month for 6 months in a laid back, comfortable atmosphere that really allowed guys the ability to invite friends without having any pressures. Neal Jeffreys was a quarerback for the Baylor Bears and San Diego Chargers, but has had to deal with a severe stuttering problem since he was a little kid. The series is titled "The Man I Want To Be." You can do a Google search on Mr. Jeffreys if you would like to see more information on his series.

I really enjoyed this motivational series and would definitely recommend it to everyone no matter age or marital status!
