God's Men in the Church

G-Men gatherings provide an opportunity for you to fellowship with other men in your community. At these events, we discuss the challenges and victories in our homes, in our workplaces and in our minds. We encourage you to join with us, meet some new friends, hear a few life stories, and take part in a discussion on topics relevant to men.

Are you bored with services that seem to cater only to women?
Do you go to church just to be with you wife?
Do you want songs that are more suited to men?
Do you want to see more men in church leadership?
Do you want to see young men excited about the Lord?
 

If so, let's get more involved as Godly leaders in our homes and churches. Let's Fireproof our marriages. Let's not provoke our children to wrath. As sons, let's obey our parents. Let's ask God to turn the hearts of the fathers to the sons and the hearts of sons to their fathers!!

Where are all the men?

• The typical U.S. Congregation draws an adult crowd that’s 61% female, 39% male. This gender gap shows up in all age categories.

• On any given Sunday there are 13 million more adult women than men in America’s churches.

• This Sunday almost 25 percent of married, churchgoing women will worship without their husbands.

• Midweek activities often draw 70 to 80 percent female participants.

• The majority of church employees are women (except for ordained clergy, who are overwhelmingly male).

• Over 70 percent of the boys who are being raised in church will abandon it during their teens and twenties. Many of these boys will never return.

• More than 90 percent of American men believe in God, and five out of six call themselves Christians. But only two out of six attend church on a given Sunday. The average man accepts the reality of Jesus Christ, but fails to see any value in going to church.

• Churches overseas report gender gaps of up to 9 women for every adult man in attendance.

• Christian universities are becoming convents. The typical Christian college in the U.S. enrolls almost 2 women for every 1 man.

• Fewer than 10% of U.S. churches are able to establish or maintain a vibrant men’s ministry.
