Becoming the Godly Husband Your Wife Needs
Captain Brett Meredith – Kerrville, Texas
The hardest thing that you will ever do is become the godly husband that your wife needs you to be.

Men’s Ministry Programming Made SIMPLE
Major Mark Satterlee – Huntsville, Alabama
“Where would most of our corps men’s clubs be without dominoes and Uno? Could it be that God has bigger designs for your men? Hear what other men’s clubs just like yours are doing around the territory and what you can do to generate interest in men’s ministry in your town. Come prepared to share and use others ideas.”
A Man’s Role in the Corps
Major Pete Costas – Raleigh, North Carolina
What’s the secret for growing and sustaining a thriving Salvation Army Corps? It’s not the Corps Officer! It’s passionate, holy men, empowered with leadership opportunity within a structure that encourages and nurtures them while they work together to serve others. Hear from men who “get it” in a Corps that “gets it right!”
Becoming the Godly Father Your Children Need
Major Robert Lyle – Hagerstown, Maryland
” Finally be Strong in The Lord!” It is my desire that through this workshop we will learn as men that “Putting on the Full Armor of God” can allow us to Stand Firm and by doing this, we can learn to be a Micah 6:8 Man!

Overcoming Addictions as a Godly Man

Spiritual Authority…How to Live It!
Major Paul McFarland – Tampa, Florida ARC Administrator
Spiritual Authority- the divine paradox. Authority, closely tied with power and more often than not the recipient of our passive-aggressive rebellion. Just what is spiritual Authority and do I live under it? Thought provoking discussion about a topic mankind has wrestled with since the Garden of Eden.
The Godly Man and His Money
Major Robert Webb – Divisional Secretary for Business – Tampa, Florida
As the godly man purposes in his heart to put God first in every area of his life, he will embrace spiritual principles such as; faith based giving, multiplying of talents and personal accountability. Through these personal disciplines empowered by his love for God, the godly man begins to enjoy the bountiful harvest of God’s blessing in his life. Come and be blessed!
Becoming A Man of Prayer
CSM Cotton Presley – Springdale, Arkansas

Communication in Marriage

Why Men Hate Going to Church
Mr. David Murrow, Director, Church for Men
